About this yacht
can accommodate up to 10 guests, crew will use 2 berths in front bow cabins
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups. The Lagoon 55 is genuinely spacious with 7 cabins and 12 berths, ideal for extended families, friend groups, or corporate retreats who want their own floating resort. The 2025 build means everything is modern and reliable, which matters when you're chartering long-haul.

Seriously well-equipped. This catamaran ticks every comfort box: air conditioning, water maker, generator, dishwasher, ice maker, and even a flybridge (listed three times, so clearly important!). You get snorkeling gear included, a chart plotter for navigation, and autopilot to ease the workload, this is a vessel built for cruising, not roughing it.

Excellent value proposition. Zero deposit is genuinely unusual and a real selling point; combined with Nautika Centar Nava's perfect 5-star rating across 9 reviews, you're looking at a trustworthy, stress-free charter. For a brand-new 55-footer sleeping 12, the operating economics are compelling.

One honest note: The charter base location isn't specified in your data, which matters for flight connections and transfer time. Before booking, confirm where Nautika Centar Nava operates, proximity to a major European hub (Split, Athens, or similar) will affect your overall journey logistics significantly.

The marina & destination

Based at Port of Split / West Harbour, in Split, Croatia. ARTISAN is operated by Nautika Centar Nava.

Obala kneza Branimira

Why this is a great starting point

Split's West Harbour puts you at the gateway to the central Dalmatian islands, with the Pakleni Islands and Hvar accessible within an hour's sail. Week one typically involves working south through protected waters toward Vis and Korcula, taking advantage of the predictable northwesterly Maestral wind that dominates summer months. The shallow-draft approach and established provisioning make this an ideal base for both bareboat and crewed charters exploring Croatia's most established sailing region.

Frequently asked questions
Can ARTISAN be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter ARTISAN bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter ARTISAN?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
