Manta Vaa is a modern catamaran, launched in 2022 from the Marsaudon Composites shipyard in Lorient. This lightweight and fast catamaran is fun to sail and delivers an authentic gliding experience.

While designed for experienced sailors, it is also accessible to novices when chartered with a skipper, allowing them to enjoy the thrill of helming a comfortable vessel.

Fully equipped, Manta Vaa offers exceptional comfort in a bright and open living space:

- Solar panels
- Watermaker

Perfectly suited for 6 to 8 guests, the catamaran features:

- 4 separate cabins + 120x200 bed in the saloon
- 2 bathrooms
- A fully equipped kitchen with 2 refrigerators
- 220V and USB outlets in each cabin
- A 3.4m tender with a 15hp outboard engine
- Outdoor shower
- Snorkeling gear for 6 people
- Gennaker sail
- 2 stand-up paddleboards
- Cleaning service included
- Consumables included (excluding diesel)

This catamaran is ideal for family or group cruises. Its extended aft platforms and spacious trampoline make it an excellent choice for kiteboarding or wing-foiling enthusiasts, who will enjoy gliding both at anchor and under sail.

Fast catamaran, fun and very comfortable with watermaker, heater, ....

Perfect for groups. This 2022 catamaran sleeps seven across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends looking to split costs on a longer sailing holiday. The beam and stability of a cat means everyone gets comfortable motion underway, plus plenty of deck space to relax.

Smart modern kit. Solar panels, heating, autopilot, and a swimming platform tick all the boxes for contemporary cruising comfort. The lazy bag and spinnaker suggest this boat rewards active sailors, while snorkeling gear points to reef or island exploration, perfect if you're anchoring in warm, clear waters.

Decent value proposition. At €8,000 deposit for a 2022 boat with solid equipment, this feels fairly priced for a four-cabin catamaran in the current market. You're getting a modern, well-appointed vessel without paying premium rates.

One practical note: The charter base location isn't listed here, so before booking, confirm where you'll fly into and how far the base is from the nearest major airport, that'll dictate your travel day and overall trip logistics from the UK or Europe.

The marina & destination

Based at Port de la Trinité-sur-Mer, in La Trinité-sur-Mer, France. Manta Va'a is operated by Electron Libre.

Cours des Quais

Why this is a great starting point

Port de la Trinité-sur-Mer is ideally positioned for exploring the Gulf of Morbihan, where you can spend week one sailing amongst shallow-draft channels, islands, and anchorages within a few hours of departure. The marina works well as a base for westbound cruising toward the Quiberon Peninsula and Belle-Île, or eastbound into the Vilaine estuary, giving you flexible options depending on wind conditions and preference. Protected waters dominate week one, making this a good choice if you want to acclimatise to your boat before reaching open water.

Can Manta Va'a be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Manta Va'a 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 Manta Va'a?

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.
