What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
15 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Built for groups The Aurora is a solid choice for larger parties, 10 berths across 6 cabins means friends or family can spread out comfortably without feeling cramped. A 2011 Lagoon 400 catamaran is a proven design that's stable and easy to handle, even for sailors with modest experience.
Smart cruising extras Solar panels, heating, and air conditioning are genuine comfort features that justify the price point, especially if you're chartering outside peak summer months. The autopilot and lazy jack system reduce the physical grind of sailing, which matters on longer passages or when your crew includes less experienced sailors.
Fair value proposition At roughly €4,600 per week, you're paying a fair rate for a established catamaran with solid specs and modern conveniences, not a bargain, but honest pricing. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable and typical for this vessel class.
One practical note You'll need to confirm the charter base location with All-Seas, as it isn't listed here; that detail matters significantly for international crews planning flights and transfer logistics. Once you know where Aurora is based, check how far the marina sits from the nearest airport with good European or transatlantic connections.
