SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This 2024 Lagoon 42 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or extended family, six cabins sleeping up to 12 makes it one of the roomiest cats in its class. The catamaran hull also means excellent stability and minimal seasickness, which international guests always appreciate.

Smart, modern setup You're getting a genuinely well-equipped boat here: solar panels and a water maker mean real self-sufficiency, while electric winches and an electric toilet show Cata Tribe has invested in comfort over basics. The teak cockpit and coffee maker are nice touches that matter on longer charters.

Solid value proposition At this size and specification, brand new, six cabins, all those creature comforts, the pricing is competitive. The €4,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests Cata Tribe runs a straightforward operation.

Check the base location We don't have the charter base listed here, which matters for your flight connections and transfer time from the airport. Before booking, confirm where Cucù is based and how far it is from your nearest international hub, that can easily add 3-4 hours to your travel day.

The marina & destination

Based at Porto Mirabello, in La Spezia, Italy. Cucù is operated by Cata Tribe.

Viale Italia

Why this is a great starting point

Porto Mirabello in La Spezia sits at the gateway to Cinque Terre and the Portovenere coast, making it ideal for exploring the dramatic rocky inlets and small harbours of the Liguria region within 10-15 nautical miles. Week 1 typically involves day-sailing north to Portovenere and the islands of Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto, or south along the Cinque Terre coastline with its steep cliffs and protected anchorages. The prevailing northwesterly Mistral winds provide reliable sailing in summer, though the shelter of the Gulf of La Spezia itself offers a good lee for boats new to the area.

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