SailChecker note

17 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 families The Lagoon 440 is a genuinely excellent choice for mixed groups or families wanting space without compromise. Four cabins sleeping eight mean everyone gets proper privacy, and the catamaran's shallow draft plus bow thruster make anchoring in tight spots effortless.

Smart comfort features Water maker, air conditioning, and a generator mean you're genuinely self-sufficient away from marinas, no rationing freshwater or sweating through hot nights. The autopilot and radar keep things relaxed on longer passages, and little touches like the ice maker show this boat's been used by people who understand what makes cruising pleasant.

Decent value proposition A €0 deposit is refreshing and takes friction out of booking. At 2009 vintage, you're getting mature, proven systems rather than trendy new tech, which translates to better availability and typically lower charter rates than newer models.

One honest note That outboard engine setup feels a bit lightweight for a 13.6m catamaran, you'll want calm conditions or strong wind for confidence on longer transits, and mechanical support abroad can be patchier than with standard inboard diesel. Check the operator's service record carefully before committing to an ambitious itinerary.
