At 14,7 m, this catamaran works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.

Vulcano and the Aeolians from Capo d’Orlando
Capo d’Orlando sits under the wooded Nebrodi mountains on Sicily’s north coast, a working town with a marina rather than a resort, and the week forks between the Aeolians offshore and the Tyrrhenian coast itself. Catania (CTA) and Palermo (PMO) are each a long coastal drive, so most crews spend the first night on the Sicilian shore and read the wind before deciding. The coastal option runs west under the headlands to the Tindari sanctuary and the Marinello lagoons, sheltered short hops close in. For the islands, Vulcano, Lipari and Salina sit a short hop apart once across, though the channels are open and the anchorages deep, so pick a calm day for the crossing and keep the run home for an easy last day.
