The 5 cabin’s bareboat catamaran Lagoon 440 - 5 cab. was built in 2010 and it is docked in Piombino, Italy. The Lagoon 440 - 5 cab. (2010) can accommodate up to 8 people in 5 cabins and it has 5 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 45 ft / 13,6 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): GPS chart plotter - cockpit, electric anchor windlass, hot water, GPS chart plotter, autopilot and it’s obligatory extras: starter pack, final cleaning. The main sail is furling/roll. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 08:30 h.
Why charter this Lagoon 440 - 5 cab.
5 cabins for 8 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 1.6 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 13,6 m, this catamaran works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Lagoon 440 - 5 cab. suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 5 cabins and 5 heads. The catamaran beam is useful at anchor, but marina planning needs wider berth options and earlier docking choices.
Elba across the Piombino channel
Piombino sits right on the channel that makes the shortest crossing to Elba, and whether to take it is the first thing the weather decides: in settled conditions it is a quick hop to Portoferraio, but with the mistral building the sensible first move is to stay on the mainland side and wait for a cleaner window. Pisa Airport (PSA) is a road transfer up the coast, with Florence (FLR) the longer drive inland. Once across, Elba is the week: Napoleon’s green, mountainous island of turquoise coves and hillside vineyards gives enough short coastal legs to fill it, the channel the one stretch to respect on the way home, best recrossed on a settled morning. Capraia and the outer Tuscan islands are longer, more exposed runs out and back, better kept for a longer charter.
