About this yacht
SailChecker Expert View
Perfect for groups This 2020 Lagoon 42 catamaran sleeps up to 12 across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a week-long charter. The dual-hull design offers excellent stability and shallow draft, which opens up more anchorages than a monohull.
Well-equipped modern boat You're getting a genuinely useful spec here, water maker (crucial for longer trips), generator, air conditioning, autopilot, and a teak cockpit that actually enhances the sailing experience rather than just looks. The 2020 build year means systems are current and reliability shouldn't be a concern.
Solid value proposition NSS Charter holds a respectable 4.3/5 rating across 10 reviews, which suggests consistent service. A €4,500 deposit is reasonable for a 12-berth boat, and the base location matters less than transit time from an international airport, confirm that before committing.
One practical note With 12 potential berths, you'll want to check cabin configurations carefully; not all will be equally spacious or private. If you're chartering with mixed ages or groups needing retreat space, clarify the exact layout before booking.

The marina & destination
Based at Rodney Bay Marina, in St Lucia - Castries, St. Lucia. Copernicus (STL) is operated by NSS Charter.
Rodney Bay Marina, just north of Castries, positions you perfectly for explorations down the Windward Islands; week one typically involves sailing south to the Pitons at Soufrière, then continuing through St Vincent and the Grenadines with consistent trade winds on your beam. The marina itself offers full facilities and a sheltered anchorage, making it straightforward for crew to settle in after long-haul travel before heading out. From here you can reach Bequia, Mustique, and the Northern Grenadines within 2-4 days of sailing, giving first-time charterers a manageable introduction to Caribbean cruising grounds.
