SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Lagoon 40 is an excellent choice if you're chartering with friends or family, four cabins sleep up to 10, making it ideal for splitting costs across multiple couples or a multi-generational crew. The catamaran hull design gives you stability, shallow draft, and plenty of deck space, so everyone gets breathing room.

Smart modern touches Solar panels and a refrigerator mean you can keep food fresh and reduce fuel burn, while the lazy bag and lazy jack make sail handling genuinely relaxed. Autopilot, Bimini top, and cockpit cushions show this boat is set up for comfortable cruising rather than racing, you'll appreciate that during long tropical passages or hot weather sailing.

Reasonable value equation At 2021 build with solid spec, Fil'eole sits in the sweet spot for catamaran charters: newer than older cats (which means fewer breakdowns) but not the newest premium pricing. The €5,000 deposit is standard market rate, and ACM Catamaran's perfect 5-star rating is encouraging, though note that's just one review, worth asking for recent client references.

Know the base location The charter base information isn't shown in your data, so confirm the location before booking, it'll affect your flight time from the UK, US, or Europe, and determine whether the boat suits your intended cruising ground. Ask ACM directly about airport transfers and whether the base has English-speaking support staff.

Frequently asked questions
Can Fil'eole be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Fil'eole 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 Fil'eole?
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.
