SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups. The Lagoon 40 suits larger parties or multi-family charters with its six cabins and ten berths, you'll have comfortable sleeping space and social areas to spread out. The 2022 build means everything feels modern and well-maintained.

Standout features. This catamaran offers the stability and space catamarans are known for, plus practical touches like the sprayhood, bimini, and cockpit cushions that make time on deck genuinely enjoyable. The autopilot and chart plotter handle navigation legwork, leaving you to focus on the experience.

Value consideration. At €500 deposit with a 5-star operator, Didoo appears competitively positioned for a newer, six-cabin cat, though base location and weekly rate aren't shown here, so compare final pricing against similar vessels in your chosen sailing region. ARCHON's perfect rating is a solid confidence signal.

One honest note. Six cabins on an 11.7m hull means some cabins will be compact; check the layout carefully if you're chartering with guests who need generous private space. Catamarans also hold their position in wind differently than monohulls, so newer sailors should factor in that learning curve.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Gouvia, in Gouvia, Greece. Didoo is operated by ARCHON Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Gouvia sits on Corfu's east coast with easy access to the Ionian Islands; week 1 typically takes you south toward Lefkada and Kefalonia, with consistent northerly winds (Etesians) pushing you downwind through protected anchorages and narrow channels. The marina's sheltered location and full facilities make it ideal for crews adjusting to Greek sailing, and you can reach Paxos, Antipaxos, or the Patrasso approaches within 2-3 days of departure. The relatively short passages and abundance of small island anchorages suit mixed-ability crews, though northerly wind patterns mean most first-week itineraries favour southbound sailing.

Frequently asked questions
Can Didoo be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Didoo bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Didoo?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
