SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families , The Lagoon 400 is a proven family cruiser, and with 4 cabins and space for 10, Trixi suits multi-generational trips or two couples looking for comfort without feeling cramped. The shallow draft typical of this model also opens up protected anchorages and lagoons that monohulls can't reach.

Well-equipped essentials , Solar panels, electric winches, and an electric toilet mean less manual work and more time relaxing; the lazy jack and bimini show someone's thought about tropical cruising comfort. Chart plotter and dinghy are standard but appreciated features that save you hiring extras.

Reasonable value proposition , At 2017 with solid standard kit, Trixi sits in the fair-price middle ground for a 4-cabin catamaran in this size range. The €6,000 deposit is manageable for a bareboat of this capacity.

Operator track record , The 3.8/5 rating from 4 reviews is modest rather than glowing; not a red flag, but with limited feedback you'll want to contact VPM Bestsail directly about their support, changeover procedures, and how quickly they respond to technical issues during your charter.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Bas-du-Fort, in Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe. Trixi is operated by VPM Bestsail - EIS Finance SARL.

Rte du Bas du Fort

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Bas-du-Fort sits in a protected bay with good holding and lies conveniently close to Pointe-à-Pitre's airport, making it an efficient arrival point after long-haul travel. From here, week 1 typically involves cruising the Saintes archipelago to the south (Les Saintes, Terre-de-Bas) or island-hopping north towards Desharaies and the Pitons du Carbet, with reliable trade winds offering consistent beam and broad reaches. The marina itself provides full provisioning, fuel, and mechanics, though anchor-outs and smaller moorings in nearby bays offer better holding for overnight stops.

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