SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families. The Lagoon 42 catamaran sleeps up to 12 across four cabins, making it ideal if you're chartering with extended family or friends who want to split costs and share the experience—rare to find this much space in a 42-footer.

Well-equipped modern cat. Built in 2020, she comes with the essentials: generator, water maker, air conditioning, autopilot, and a chart plotter, plus a dinghy for exploring anchorages and getting ashore. The teak cockpit and onboard coffee maker signal attention to comfort during those long sailing days.

Solid value proposition. At this size with four cabins and 12 berths, you're spreading costs across more people, which typically delivers strong bang-for-buck on a relatively new, well-appointed vessel. The 4.3/5 operator rating (10 reviews) is respectable and suggests NSS Charter maintains decent standards.

One caveat worth noting. The charter base location isn't listed in your data, so confirm transfer time from the nearest major airport—this matters when you're flying intercontinental to reach the boat. Also, with 12 berths, cabin configurations may be snug, so verify the actual sleeping arrangements before booking if comfort over headcount is your priority.

Frequently asked questions
Can Copernicus (STV) be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Copernicus (STV) 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 Copernicus (STV)?
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.
