Bootscharter in Italien · Bali 4.3 in Sicily / Capo d'Orlando Marina — “MARIA ELENA” — (2020)

Capo d'Orlando Marina puts you at the heart of Sicily's northern coast, where the Aeolian Islands lie within easy reach and smaller bays along the Tyrrhenian shoreline invite genuine exploration. MARIA ELENA, a 2020 Bali 4.3, anchors you here with the kind of practical comfort that makes a week-long cruise feel effortless rather than cramped. The catamaran sleeps up to 10 guests across 6 cabins with 4 bathrooms, giving families and groups genuine privacy and breathing room. Below deck, the layout balances sleeping quarters with a generous saloon where everyone can gather over meals or shelter during weather. On deck, the dual hulls create unusually wide side spaces—trampolines stretched between the bows invite lazy afternoon lounging, while the foredeck and cockpit areas offer distinct zones for socializing, steering, and simply watching the water unfold. Two hulls deliver tangible advantages once you're at anchor. The shallow 1.35-meter draft opens access to isolated anchorages other monohulls cannot reach, letting you tuck into smaller bays and beaches. That same shallow draw, combined with the catamaran's inherent stability, means less rolling, steadier anchoring, and a more comfortable night's sleep even when nearby vessels pitch and sway. From Capo d'Orlando, you have a full week to drift between Sicily's quieter coves, island-hop toward the volcanic Aeolians, or sail west toward Palermo's working harbor and hidden limestone inlets. The space, stability, and access make MARIA ELENA built for cruising this coast.
