SailChecker Expert View

Great family choice This 2023 Lagoon 40 catamaran suits groups and families wanting comfort without complexity. The four cabins easily sleep eight, and the wide beam gives everyone decent personal space—rare on monohulls of this size.

Smart modern kit You're getting genuinely useful gear here: water maker means independence from shore facilities, autopilot reduces crew fatigue, and the generator keeps air-con and amenities running smoothly. The electric toilet and inverter show thoughtful provisioning for extended cruising.

Solid value proposition At this charter rate (relative to the 2023 build and catamaran stability), you're paying fairly for a well-equipped, recently built vessel with a 5/5 operator rating—rudder&moor clearly maintains their fleet properly. The €4,000 deposit is reasonable security.

One honest note Catamarans are roomier and more forgiving in rough seas, but they're slower and less agile than comparable monohulls—check the base location and planned sailing grounds to confirm this suits your pace and itinerary. You'll also want to confirm whether the operator is based within reasonable airport transfer distance for your international arrival.

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