About Bareboat Sailing Yacht LA VIDA RAPIDA
The Beneteau Oceanis 40 represents a refined approach to modern cruising yacht design. Conceived by Nauta Design, the acclaimed Italian studio behind superyacht innovation, this sailing yacht balances contemporary aesthetics with genuine seaworthiness. Her interior prioritises natural light, generous accommodation across three cabins, and the kind of thoughtful ergonomics that reward weeks at sea rather than weekend escapes.
This particular vessel offers bareboat charter freedom for experienced sailors seeking to explore Sicily's waters independently. The yacht arrives fully equipped with GPS chartplotter, autopilot, bimini top and sprayhood, eliminating the need to puzzle through unfamiliar systems. A complimentary Italian mobile phone connects you with the base manager and daily weather updates, ensuring you remain properly informed whilst maintaining your autonomy.

The Charter Experience
Launching from Sicily places you within reach of the Mediterranean's most layered cruising grounds. The Aeolian Islands present dramatic volcanic scenery and sheltered anchorages; the Egadi Islands offer clear waters and unspoilt coves; the Tyrrhenian coast reveals hidden villages accessible only by water. Whether you navigate towards Trapani's salt pans, explore Mondello's coastal villages, or anchor off Favignana, this bareboat arrangement rewards capable sailors with the flexibility to follow the wind and sea conditions rather than a predetermined schedule.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might begin with Saturday departure from Palermo, heading west towards the Egadi Islands for clear-water exploration and anchorages at Favignana and Levanzo. Mid-week, push north towards the Aeolian group, threading between Lipari, Panarea and Salina for volcanic drama and protected harbours. Return to the Sicilian coast for final days exploring quieter spots near San Vito Lo Capo or Mondello, arriving back in Palermo by Friday afternoon.
