About this yacht
Watermaker, Inverter, Generator, A/C
SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for groups This 2019 Lagoon 52 catamaran is built for larger parties, six private cabins sleep up to 14, making it perfect for families or friends sharing costs across multiple cabins. The generous layout and onboard amenities (water maker, air conditioning, generator) mean everyone stays comfortable without feeling cramped.

Well-equipped vessel Dugongo II arrives ready to explore: radar, autopilot, chart plotter, and a full suite of water toys (dinghy, snorkeling kit, SUP board) are all included. The teak cockpit and bimini provide pleasant outdoor living, while the galley refrigeration and onboard generator remove typical catamaran trade-offs around provisioning and power.

Solid value proposition At €5000 deposit with a 4.3/5 operator rating (10 reviews), this represents honest mid-range pricing for a modern, six-cabin cat in 2019 condition. You're paying for capacity and convenience rather than cutting-edge luxury, which suits groups prioritizing space and functionality over five-star finishes.

Charter base opacity The base location isn't listed in your data, which matters significantly for transatlantic travelers deciding between Caribbean, Mediterranean, or other regions. I'd confirm with NSS Charter directly how accessible the departure port is from your nearest international airport and whether they offer crew or bareboat options for this vessel.

The marina & destination

Based at Nelson's Dockyard, in Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda. Dugongo II (ANU) is operated by NSS Charter.

Dockyard Drive

Why this is a great starting point

Nelson's Dockyard is Antigua's primary yacht base and sits perfectly for exploring the Leeward Islands; week one typically involves easy downwind passages to Montserrat, Guadeloupe, or the nearby Grenadines with consistent trade winds pushing you south. The protected anchorages around Antigua itself offer several sheltered bays for shorter days, making it ideal for crews adjusting to boat handling after long flights. From here you can work south through the volcanic peaks and reef systems of the Lesser Antilles, or north towards Barbuda and St. Kitts depending on your preferred pace and wind conditions.
