WATERMAKER, INVERTER, SOLAR PANELS

Perfect for groups. This 2023 Lagoon 40 catamaran sleeps up to 10 across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a Caribbean or Mediterranean charter. The beam and layout of a cat mean comfortable communal spaces and minimal motion, a real plus if anyone aboard gets seasick.

Well-equipped modern boat. You're getting a genuinely recent build with practical gear: water maker (huge on longer passages), electric toilet, autopilot, and cockpit speakers for those sunset moments. The chart plotter and decent spec suggest NSS Charter maintains their fleet to a decent standard, which matters when you're flying long-haul to get here.

Reasonable value proposition. At this size and age, the €3,500 deposit is sensible, and four cabins sharing charter costs makes per-person outlay attractive compared to monohull alternatives. NSS's 4.3/5 rating from 10 reviews is solid, not perfect, but honestly reflects most charter operations.

Check base location first. The charter base isn't listed here, so confirm where "DJ" is actually moored before booking; turnaround logistics and your international flight connection depend entirely on that. Ask NSS directly about airport transfer times and whether they handle check-in in English, standard questions, but essential when you're traveling from the US or Europe.

The marina & destination

Based at Cala dei Sardi, in Portisco, Italy. DJ is operated by NSS Charter.

Strada Provinciale per Porto Cervo

Why this is a great starting point

Cala dei Sardi in Portisco sits on the north coast of Sardinia, offering direct access to the sheltered waters and granite islands of the Costa Smeralda and Maddalena archipelago. Week 1 typically involves island-hopping between Caprera, Budelli, and Spargi, with steady northwesterly winds providing reliable sailing conditions for the 15-25 nautical mile passages. The marina serves as an ideal base for cruisers wanting to explore some of the Mediterranean's clearest waters without committing to longer offshore passages.

Can DJ be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter DJ 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 DJ?

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.
