SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families The Lucia 40 is a solid choice for groups of 4–8 people wanting comfortable, stable sailing in the Mediterranean. The catamaran hull gives you excellent space and minimal heel, which appeals to less experienced sailors or families with children.

Smart layout and amenities Four separate cabins and sensible deck equipment—chart plotters, dinghy, and cockpit speakers—mean everyone gets privacy and you're well set up for exploring. The 2018 build year suggests modern systems without excessive age-related quirks.

Reasonable deposit structure A €4,000 deposit is moderate for this size and configuration, though you'll want to confirm the weekly rate to assess overall value. Based on catamaran pricing in the Mediterranean, this boat should offer fair day-rate economics for a bareboat charter.

One practical note The base location isn't specified in your data, so check exactly where Carloforte Sail Charter operates—whether that's Sardinia, Sicily, or elsewhere—to work out your international arrival logistics and whether you can reach it conveniently from a major EU hub.

Frequently asked questions
Can LIPARA be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter LIPARA 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 LIPARA?
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.
