About this yacht

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups. The Caffé di Sicilia sleeps up to 10 across six cabins, making it ideal for families or friends chartering together, you'll have the space and comfort of a newer catamaran without cramping anyone. For international guests flying in, a brand-new 2026 build means reliable systems and modern conveniences throughout.

Well-equipped and thoughtful. This yacht ticks all the boxes: lazy bag and lazy jack for easy sail handling, full navigation suite with radar and chart plotter, air conditioning for Mediterranean heat, a flybridge for entertaining, and even paddle boards and snorkeling gear included. The teak cockpit and deck add a touch of elegance that justifies the investment.

Solid value proposition. At €3,000 deposit, the all-in pricing looks competitive for a 2026 catamaran of this size and specification, you're getting a new boat with a comprehensive equipment list rather than paying extra for optional add-ons. Catamarans like this hold their value well and deliver excellent space-to-cost ratio for larger groups.

One realistic note. We don't have the weekly charter rate or base location listed here, so do confirm the full cost and where you'll be sailing from, transit time from major European airports varies wildly depending on location, and that matters when you're flying long-haul.

The marina & destination

Based at La Cala (Porto Palermo), in Palermo, Italy. Caffé di Sicilia is operated by Lascatutto.

Why this is a great starting point

La Cala in Porto Palermo sits on Sicily's north coast, offering direct access to the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Aeolian Islands. Week one typically covers the volcanic islands of Lipari and Vulcano (30-40 nautical miles), with moderate northwesterly winds pushing you southeast through excellent anchorages and fishing villages. The protected waters of the Cefalù coast lie westward for lighter wind days, making this an ideal base for mixed sailing conditions and a strong introduction to Mediterranean cruising.

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