Boat charter in Italy · Astréa 42 in Sardinia / Cannigione — “Amapola - A/C, Generator, Water maker. Solar panel” — (2024)

Moored in Cannigione's sheltered waters, Amapola - A/C, Generator, Water maker. Solar panel is a 2024 Fountaine Pajot Astréa 42 built to anchor shallow across Sardinia's granite bays and granite-fringed islands. Her twin hulls sit stable even when the wind picks up, and her shallow draft means you'll reach beaches and anchorages that monohulls simply cannot. The broad bridging deck between the two hulls creates the Astréa's defining advantage: when you're anchored for the afternoon or settled for the night, there's genuine room to spread out. Below deck, four cabins with a total of eleven berths sleep your group or extended family comfortably, while four bathrooms mean no queuing in the morning. The open saloon flows from the kitchen, and the design lets natural light reach the main living space. Up on deck, twin trampolines stretch across the bows—a quiet spot to read, watch the water, or simply drift. The cockpit is a natural gathering place, shaded and positioned for easy sailing. From Cannigione, a week's cruising opens the Maddalena Archipelago to the north and the Costa Smeralda's quieter anchorages to the south. The catamaran's shallow draft, fuel efficiency, and onboard systems—generator, water maker, and solar panels—let you stay comfortably at anchor longer, exploring without rushing to the next marina. This is how modern catamaran cruising works in the Mediterranean.
