SailChecker Expert View

Spacious catamaran choice. The Samana 59 is a modern 2022 catamaran with four cabins sleeping eight, making it ideal for families or small groups wanting comfortable space without charter crew. The beam and layout typical of this hull design means everyone gets genuine cabin privacy rather than the cramped feeling of monohulls.

Comfort and convenience built in. Solar panels, a generator, air conditioning, and electric winches take the hard work out of sailing, while the radar and chart plotter make navigation straightforward. The bimini and lazy bag mean you're not wrestling with sail handling in hot weather, great if your group includes non-sailors or anyone wanting a relaxed pace.

Fair value proposition. At €6,000 deposit for a four-cabin 2022 catamaran, this is reasonably positioned for the modern build quality and creature comforts on offer. You're paying for the space and ease of operation rather than the sporty-sailing experience, which makes sense if your priority is comfort over performance.

One practical note: The charter base location isn't listed here, so before booking, confirm where Arcadie Plaisance operates and factor in airport transfers and flight connections from your home airport, that logistics piece often makes or breaks a long-haul charter trip.

The marina & destination

Based at Les Marines de Cogolin, in Cogolin, France. Isahe is operated by Arcadie Plaisance.

36 Esplanade de la capitainerie

Why this is a great starting point

Les Marines de Cogolin sits in the central Var coast with immediate access to the Iles d'Hyeres and the sheltered waters between the mainland and Porquerolles; week one typically covers the island anchorages, small ports like Bormes-les-Mimosas, and the Giens Peninsula without pushing beyond the Mistral's influence zone. The marina works best for sailors comfortable with moderate winds and rocky coastline navigation, as the Provencal coast demands precision but rewards you with consistent sailing conditions and authentic Cote d'Azur villages. From here you can reach Lavandou, Cavalaire, and the quieter Maures foothills within 15-20 nautical miles, making it ideal for week-one exploration before deciding whether to push east towards Saint-Tropez or west towards the Porquerolles group.

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