Ideal for families The Lagoon 42 is a spacious catamaran that suits families or groups of up to 8 wanting comfort over speed. The four cabins and dual-hull design make it forgiving for less experienced sailors, and the broad deck spaces are perfect for relaxing between anchorages.

Standout strengths At 2018, this yacht is relatively modern with the reliability Lagoon is known for. The catamaran platform offers excellent stability and shallow draft, letting you explore skinny-water destinations that monohulls can't reach, ideal for Caribbean or Mediterranean gunk-holing.

Value consideration A €3,500 deposit is reasonable for a 4-cabin boat of this size, suggesting fair positioning within the mid-range charter market. Actual weekly rates aren't shown here, so you'd want to compare against similar Lagoon 42s at competing operators to judge value properly.

One honest note Catamarans can feel a touch slower and less "yacht-like" to purists, Day Dream won't point high or sail like a racing machine. If you or your crew crave spirited sailing, a monohull might scratch that itch better, though you'd sacrifice the interior space and stability this boat delivers.

The marina & destination

Based at Ece Marina, in Fethiye, Turkey. Day Dream is operated by Solar Yachting.

Karagözler, Fevzi Cakmak Cd.

Why this is a great starting point

Ece Marina sits in Fethiye's well-protected bay on Turkey's southwest coast, making it ideal for week 1 exploration of the Lycian coast's pine-backed anchorages and island-hopping grounds. Light northwesterly winds typically allow you to reach the Red Island group, Oludeniz lagoon, and the Ekincik river delta within easy day-sail distances; the sheltered bays here offer good holding and few other boats early in the season. The marina itself provides reliable facilities and a straightforward departure point before venturing further east toward Gocek or west toward Dalyan.

Can Day Dream be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Day Dream 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 Day Dream?

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.

We'll check live availability, apply any discounts, and come back within hours.
