What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
16 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.
Perfect for groups. The Lagoon 421 offers excellent space with five cabins sleeping up to nine guests, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a longer voyage. The catamaran design provides stability and comfort that most monohulls can't match.
Well-equipped vessel. Solar panels and electric winches are thoughtful touches that reduce fuel consumption and crew fatigue, while the dual chart plotters, autopilot, and solid navigation kit mean you're well set up for independent cruising. The bimini and cockpit speakers add genuine comfort for those extended Caribbean days.
Excellent value proposition. At €2,800 per week with a modest €3,000 deposit, this 2010 catamaran is competitively priced for the size and cabin count, especially if you're splitting costs across multiple families flying into Cuba from Europe or North America. You're looking at roughly €300, 350 per person weekly for a well-maintained charter boat.
Single review caveat. The operator has a perfect 5-star rating, but only one review on file, so it's hard to gauge consistency or get a fuller picture of service quality. We'd recommend checking recent feedback directly with Platten Sailing Cuba before committing, particularly regarding their support for international guests and any logistics around airport transfers from Havana.
