SailChecker note

12 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.

Perfect for groups This 12-metre Lagoon catamaran sleeps up to 8 across 4 cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a week away. The wide beam and dual-hull design give you plenty of living space both on deck and below.

Well-equipped vessel She's got the essentials covered: autopilot, chart plotter, electric winches, solar panels, and a solid spec of comfort gear like the bimini, lazy bag, and cockpit cushions. You won't be roughing it, and single-handed sailing is absolutely manageable with those winches.

Value-conscious choice At 2014 with this equipment level and cabin count, you're getting a sensible, no-frills platform that won't break the bank, especially when split among four cabins of sailors. The €4,000 deposit is reasonable for a boat this size.

One heads-up The operator has only one review on record, so there's limited visibility on their actual service standards, turnaround times, or local support quality. Before committing, chat directly with ACM Catamaran about their English-speaking team and what happens if something needs attention mid-charter.

The heat map shows recorded overnight stops from round trips made by charter yachts tracked by AIS from Toulon, Hyères and the Îles d'Or during the 2026 season so far. You can use it to see where those yachts spent their nights and compare that with your own yacht charter plans. It is not a navigation guide.

Use the recorded stops as a starting point for your charter plans. The full map gives you more to compare, and you can ask us about a route from Toulon, Hyères and the Îles d'Or for this type of boat.
