SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for groups. This 2024 Lagoon 42 catamaran sleeps up to 10 across three cabins, making it perfect for families or friends wanting to share costs on a larger vessel—the extra berths mean better value per person than smaller boats.

Well-equipped modern cat. You're getting a nearly new boat with genuinely useful kit: water maker for self-sufficiency, air conditioning for hot climates, generator backup, autopilot for easier sailing, and a teak cockpit that feels premium. The cockpit speakers and comfortable cushions suggest an operator who thinks about the charter experience.

Solid operator, fair price. NSS Charter has a respectable 4.3-star rating from real customers, and a €3,500 deposit is reasonable for a boat this size and age. You're unlikely to find newer stock in this catamaran class at this price point.

One practical note: The base location isn't specified in your data, so confirm sailing distance from your arrival airport—if it's more than 2–3 hours' transfer, factor in travel time and potential overnight stays for international guests. Always worth asking NSS directly about their exact base and peak-season availability.

Frequently asked questions
Can Arca 42 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Arca 42 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 Arca 42?
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.
