BELLA MARE

Lagoon 40 — Greek Islands A Lagoon 40 makes its case quietly: the volume of a catamaran without the scale that turns a charter into a logistical exercise. The cockpit is the heart of it — genuinely spacious, shaded, level with the saloon, the kind of space where breakfast drifts into a second coffee and nobody moves until the anchor comes up. The helm station is the detail worth noting. Ergonomically laid out and reachable from either the cockpit or the deck, it keeps the skipper in direct contact with the crew at all times — no shouting up a companionway, no guesswork during a tight Cycladic anchorage or a berthing manoeuvre in a busy island harbour. Accommodation runs to six cabins for twelve guests: four with a double bed, two with a single berth. That layout suits larger family groups or a set of friends sharing the boat, with real flexibility in how the sleeping arrangements are divided. Cruising the Greek islands, she is built for the rhythm the archipelago rewards — short passages, long swims, and evenings at anchor within sight of the next island.
