Perfect for groups Delta Aquarii is an excellent choice if you're chartering with friends or family—12 berths across 4 cabins means everyone gets reasonable privacy without breaking the bank per person. The 2023 build is essentially brand new, so you're getting a modern catamaran in excellent condition.

Smart onboard features This Lagoon 42 comes well-equipped for independent cruising: autopilot and chart plotter handle navigation, the water maker and air conditioning keep you comfortable in warmer climates, and the galley coffee maker is a nice touch for early mornings on deck. The dinghy is included, giving you access to anchorages and remote beach stops.

Solid value proposition At €3,500 deposit with a solid 4.3/5 operator rating (10 reviews), NSS Charter appears reliable and transparent. Catamarans offer exceptional space-to-cost ratio compared to monohulls, especially when splitting costs among multiple families or groups flying internationally to reach the base.

One heads-up The base location isn't specified in your details—before booking, confirm where Delta Aquarii is stationed and factor in airport transfers (likely needed from a main European hub). With 12 berths, provisioning and crew coordination matter more than on smaller vessels, so build in extra time for check-in.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Portorosa, in Furnari, Italy. Delta Aquarii is operated by NSS Charter.

Via Prestipaolo 7

Can Delta Aquarii be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Delta Aquarii 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 Delta Aquarii?

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.
