What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for larger groups. With 6 cabins sleeping up to 12, Dona suits extended family holidays or friends wanting their own space without splitting into multiple vessels. It's an ideal platform for anyone wanting to avoid cramped quarters on longer charters.
Well-equipped modern cat. The 2026 build means everything is fresh, autopilot, electric winches, and a water maker take the hard work out of cruising, while air conditioning and heating cover all seasons. Wi-Fi and internet keep you connected if needed, and the teak cockpit with bimini is a genuine comfort upgrade for tropical cruising.
Solid value proposition. A new Lagoon 43 with this specification and crew capacity typically represents sensible pricing for a catamaran of this caliber, especially the modest €3,000 deposit suggests competitive rates from MK Yacht Explorer. For groups splitting costs across 6+ people, per-person daily rates become genuinely attractive.
One practical note: You'll want to confirm the charter base location, as it wasn't listed here, crucial for planning your international flight and transfer logistics. A quick call to MK Yacht Explorer will nail down where Dona is based and how far from your nearest hub airport.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.
