## About this Catamaran

Marsala Marina sits on Sicily's northwest coast, where the Tyrrhenian Sea opens onto routes toward the Aeolian Islands, the Ustica reserve, and Pantelleria. From this strategic base, Paradise Planet gives you a 2020 Dufour 48 catamaran equipped for groups and families seeking stability, comfort, and reach.

The cabin and bathroom layout works well for bareboat parties of 14. Six cabins let everyone sleep without compromise, and five bathrooms mean no bottlenecks. The saloon and cockpit flow naturally—both hold crew and guests together or give people room to spread out. The trampolines between the hulls offer a favorite spot for watching anchorages or running before the wind, while the foredeck gives standing room to work sail or simply take in the view.

Two hulls matter here. At anchor, the catamaran's beam keeps Paradise Planet level and steady, which matters for comfort and for sleep on longer passages. The shallow draft opens bays and beaches that conventional sailboats cannot reach, letting you explore Marsala's nearby shallows and pick unconventional anchorages. Space between the hulls also means room for gear, toys, and movement—one reason charter operators favor catamarans for mixed-age groups. All this makes the Dufour 48 a practical platform for a week of bareboat sailing in these waters, where the distances are manageable and the anchorages reward curiosity.
