The 1 cabin’s bareboat catamaran Astus 22.5 was built in 2022 and it is docked in Bonifacio, France. The Astus 22.5 (2022) can accommodate up to 2 people in 1 cabins and it has 1 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 27 ft / 8,3 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): air condition, stand up paddle (sup) and it’s obligatory extras: consumables, overnight on board, final cleaning. The main sail is full batten. You can check-in from 15:00 h and check-out until 08:00 h.
Why charter this Astus 22.5
1 cabins for 2 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 2 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 8,3 m, this catamaran suits short hops and small berths, but chop makes the ride wetter sooner.
Best charter fit
Astus 22.5 fits small crews that can keep luggage compact and use the single cabin mainly for sleeping or dry storage. The catamaran beam is useful at anchor, but marina planning needs wider berth options and earlier docking choices.
The Strait of Bonifacio and the Lavezzi
The cruising off Corsica’s southern tip is built around the Strait between Corsica and Sardinia, with Bonifacio’s cliff-walled harbour as the base. Handover time sets the first move: an early finish leaves time for the Lavezzi reserve, where anchoring is only in buoyed zones, or the Sant’Amanza bay; a late one is better spent inside the fjord, crossing the strait next morning. Figari-Sud Corse Airport (FSC) is the nearer gateway, with Ajaccio (AJA) much further north. Through the week the strait, the southern Corsican coast and the Italian La Maddalena archipelago link in short day passages; the open crossing to La Maddalena is the one to time, and the return is best begun early.
