Boat charter in Italy · Tanna 47 in Sardinia / Portisco / Cala dei Sardi — “Blue Mandarin” — (2023)

Portisco's position on Sardinia's north coast makes Blue Mandarin an ideal launchpad for exploring protected anchorages and shallow island bays within easy reach. This 2023 Fountaine Pajot Tanna 47 catamaran sleeps 11 guests across five cabins, each with its own bathroom—a rare setup that gives everyone the privacy they need on a week-long cruise. The interior flows around the twin hulls with a saloon that feels less cramped than monohulls of the same length, thanks to the beam width distributing living space generously. Two hulls transform how you experience anchoring and cruising. The shallow 1.35-meter draft lets Blue Mandarin reach sandy bottoms and quiet coves that deeper boats cannot enter, opening up the Maddalena archipelago and the coast south toward Arzachena as genuine options, not just viewpoints. The twin-hull stability means no rolling at anchor, no waking guests when the wind shifts—instead, secure, level platforms below and above deck. The trampolines stretched between hulls become a real gathering spot rather than an afterthought, and the foredeck gives you space to move, relax, and watch approach anchorages properly. Onboard, cabins have direct en-suite access and consistent headroom, while the galley and saloon anchor daily life together. On the water, the catamaran's width works for both sailing comfort and lounging: you can sunbathe on the coach roof, watch sunsets from the cockpit, or sit outside in genuine shade. For a group or family seeking independence and room to breathe, this boat delivers.
