SailChecker note

13 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.

Built for groups The Lagoon 421 suits families and friend groups wanting serious space, five cabins sleep nine comfortably, which is rare at this size. The catamaran layout spreads everyone out nicely, so you won't feel cramped even on longer charters.

Smart practical setup You get genuine cruising essentials here: air conditioning, heating, electric winches, autopilot, and a generator mean minimal faffing about. The teak cockpit and bimini top are lovely touches for tropical or Mediterranean bases, and the dinghy is included.

Solid value proposition At 12.6 metres with this cabin count and kit, you're looking at sensible pricing for a group split, that €2,500 deposit is reasonable. The 2013 build is mid-life, so you're not paying brand-new prices, yet the equipment list suggests decent maintenance.

One reality check SK-Yachting's base location isn't listed here, so before booking, confirm the airport transfer time and whether English-speaking crew support is available, that matters when you're flying intercontinental. A 2013 catamaran can be fantastic, but always ask for recent survey reports and sea-trial feedback from recent charterers.
