About this yacht

SailChecker Expert View

Who it suits This 2024 Lagoon 55 is ideal for larger groups or multi-family charters wanting modern comfort and space without compromise. The five cabins and 10-berth capacity make it perfect for extended friends' trips or family reunions, especially if you're flying long-haul and want to maximise your time aboard without cramped quarters.

Standout features You're looking at a nearly-new catamaran with impressive kit: water maker, air conditioning, generator, and a full suite of navigation gear mean you can venture further afield in genuine comfort. The teak deck and cockpit speakers add real resort-style appeal, while the snorkeling equipment and SUP board encourage active exploration of whatever Caribbean waters you're anchored in.

Value proposition A zero deposit is genuinely rare and makes this an accessible entry point to larger catamaran chartering, no hefty upfront cash required. For a 16.9m vessel of this spec and capacity, the pricing typically offers solid value, though you'll want to confirm total costs with NSS Charter directly.

One honest note The operator has a respectable 4.3/5 rating on 10 reviews, which is solid but a smaller review pool than some established charter companies. If you're flying intercontinental for this, check recent feedback and confirm their support for international guests, airport transfers, and any specific arrangements you'll need sorted before arrival.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Fort Louis, in Marigot, St. Martin (French). The Moon (SXM) is operated by NSS Charter.

Baie De Marigot

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Fort Louis sits in Marigot's protected harbour and works well as a charter base for exploring the northern Leeward Islands. From here, week 1 typically covers the short reach to Anguilla (16 nm north) and the nearby islands of St. Barts and St. Kitts, with steady trade winds making for reliable beam and broad reach sailing. The marina's position on the French side gives easy access to both French Creole provisioning and the less crowded anchorages around Statia and Saba if you venture southeast.

Frequently asked questions
Can The Moon (SXM) be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter The Moon (SXM) 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 The Moon (SXM)?
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.
