SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families. This 2024 Lagoon 42 catamaran suits groups of 6–10 people who want comfort without complexity—the four cabins sleep well, and the wide dual-hull design means stability and space that monohulls can't match. It's ideal for first-time charterers or mixed-ability crews who value ease over challenge.

Modern essentials covered. You're getting a genuinely new boat with practical kit: water maker and generator mean independence from shore facilities, air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable in warm climates, and electric winches reduce crew fatigue on longer passages. The sprayhood and bimini protect you from sun and spray—essential for family cruising.

Reasonable value proposition. An €8,000 deposit on a 2024 Lagoon 42 is fair for a premium catamaran in this size range, and the equipment list avoids penny-pinching surprises. You're paying for newness and reliability, which matters when you're traveling from overseas to a charter base.

Operator rating note. VPM Bestsail carries a 3.8/5 rating on just four reviews—decent, but not a large sample size. Before booking, ask directly about their English-speaking support, airport transfer options, and handover procedures; with only a handful of feedback points, you'll want to verify they handle international clients smoothly and respond quickly if issues arise.

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