Bootscharter in Tyrrhenian Sea · Lagoon 46 in Salerno — “Barone” — (2020)

Salerno puts you within reach of Italy's most prized waters: the Amalfi Coast's dramatic cliffs, the islands of Capri and Ischia, and the quieter bays of the Cilento that fewer sailors find. Barone, a 2020 Lagoon 46, bases you here to make the most of a week's cruising across the Tyrrhenian Sea. The catamaran's twin hulls are what make this coastline manageable. Moored in tight anchorages, you sit stable and level—no rolling even when the wind picks up. The shallow draft, around 1.2 metres, lets you nose into coves and beach in bays where monohulls cannot follow. When it's time to move, the two engines give you straightforward power in confined waters and variable conditions. Below, four cabins and four full bathrooms distribute the space so that eleven guests avoid the cramped feeling of ordinary charter boats. The saloon runs the full width of the bridge deck, giving it light from both sides and real headroom. The cockpit sits between the hulls—a huge advantage in bad weather or simply for comfort, as spray passes harmlessly beneath you. The trampolines and foredeck are where you spend calm afternoons: a social platform that single-hulled boats cannot match. Barone is equipped for bareboat charter, so you sail independently, but with a modern yacht that handles well and looks after its crew.
