I’ve been onboard Hydrus—she’s a solid, smart pick. Great layout, clean finish, proper storage, ensuite cabins with robes, and really well priced. Each cabin has its own vibe, which is a nice touch.
Perfect for two families, with the convertible twin. Crew is lovely.
HYDRUS Yacht Description
New Lagoon 55. HYDRUS is a 2023 Lagoon 55 sailing catamaran that sleeps 10 guests in five en-suite cabins, with a layout that suits real groups, not brochure couples.
Deck life works. You get both upper and lower deck bar and dining areas, plus multiple sunbathing and socializing zones. Short version: people can spread out without losing each other.
Easy water time. A hydraulic swim platform (the “terrace on water”) makes getting in and out for swims and toys less of a gym session and more of a habit.
Toys are covered. Launch from the Highfield CL420 tender with 60hp, then rotate through SeaBobs, wakeboard, adult and kids water skis, tubes, two SUPs, kayaks, plus snorkel and fishing gear.
Comfort basics, sorted. Full air conditioning and Wi‑Fi are onboard, and the five cabins are set up as four doubles plus one twin that converts to a double when you need it to.

Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a sailing catamaran like HYDRUS, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€4,500 - €7,875), making the charter cost €27,000 to €30,375. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.
