What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
18 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Who it suits This 2008 Lagoon 420 is ideal for groups of 4, 8 people wanting a stable, comfortable catamaran without breaking the bank. The four cabins and generous berth count make it perfect for families or friends splitting costs across a week's charter.
Standout features You're getting solid cruising kit here: air conditioning, solar panels with inverter, electric winches, and a swim platform with dinghy, all essentials for extended bareboat sailing. The catamaran design offers excellent stability and space in the saloon, which matters on longer passages or when anchored for days.
Value for money At €5,600 per week, this represents reasonable value for a four-cabin cat in that era, especially with air-con and the creature comforts listed. Splitting that across six people brings it down to under €1,000 per person, solid economics for a week afloat.
Worth noting The 2008 build age is fair game for catamarans, but you'll want to verify the actual base location and confirm Odyssey's current support if anything needs attention during your charter. The single five-star review is encouraging but limited in scope, worth asking the operator directly about recent guest feedback and any planned upgrades.
