About Trimaran L`OCTANT
L'OCTANT exemplifies the distinctive appeal of the Neel 51 trimaran. Her three-hull design delivers the stability and comfort that defines this class, while the open-plan layout encourages both social gathering and quiet retreat. The accommodation spans four cabins, accommodating eight guests with a king bed in the owner's suite and queen beds throughout, each cabin finished with the understated elegance expected of vessels in this category.
The alfresco lounge and dining areas dominate the deck experience, with generous space for al fresco living throughout the day. The interior maintains a light, airy feel that complements the Mediterranean and Caribbean waters where she operates. From the moment you step aboard, the atmosphere signals a yacht designed for genuine comfort rather than ostentatious display.

The Charter Experience
Chartering L'OCTANT means sailing under the command of Captain Denis Ruban, whose near 25 years commanding in the Western Mediterranean and Caribbean bring both composure and deep local knowledge to every passage. Supported by Nathan Leroux, whose background in gastronomic kitchens translates to thoughtfully composed menus that reflect the regions you visit, your week unfolds with the rhythm of a well-executed voyage. The crew of two handles the mechanics of safe sailing and daily comfort, leaving you free to absorb the coastlines, island anchorages, and the particular rhythm of a crewed trimaran charter. Summer cruises depart from Sardinia and Olbia, opening access to Corsica, the French Riviera, and the dramatic Costa Smeralda. In winter months, L'OCTANT relocates to the Caribbean Leewards and Windwards, offering another entirely different character of escape.
Suggested Itinerary
A seven-day Northern Sardinia charter typically departs Olbia and weaves between the protected waters and white-sand anchorages surrounding La Maddalena and Porto Cervo. Days balance scenic cruising along the Costa Smeralda's granite coastline with leisurely anchorages in sheltered bays where the crew's culinary skill and your own preferences shape each evening. The itinerary can pivot toward water activities, cultural exploration of island villages, or a fully relaxed pace of swimming, dining, and quiet anchorage. Every detail, from passage planning to provisioning, aligns with your stated interests.
