Charter an Itama 45S in Bonifacio

A sofa, a table and a long view forward

Itama’s 2019 brochure gives 13.82 metres overall and a 3.95-metre beam. Below, both interior options retain the forward double cabin; a two-cabin arrangement adds a room aft, alongside a convertible dinette.

A lowering platform and integrated hydraulic gangway complete the stern arrangement. This is the 45S reference, kept distinct from the later 45RS.

Leave a generous part of the day outdoors

The 45S makes sense when the group wants to share one open setting rather than split between several decks. A coastal passage, a quiet lunch and time beside the water can form a satisfying sequence. Think about how the table will be used: a light shared meal needs less staging than a long formal lunch. Keep personal bags compact so the useful cockpit space remains available for people moving between their seats and the stern.

Choose scenery within the time available

Leaving Bonifacio gives the day an immediate visual focus as the harbour opens toward the cliffs. A short request can stay centred on that departure and one suitable pause. A longer booking gives more room to choose a coastal direction and settle into an anchorage.

The yacht’s sports character is not a reason to fill every hour with travel. Tell the skipper whether the party would rather enjoy the passage or spend longer at rest.

Balance sun, shade and an indoor pause

The low open design exposes the party to the weather and the changing angle of the sun. Discuss the actual canopy arrangement and shaded seating for the hours you want aboard. The lower cabin provides a private place for changing or a rest, but reaching it involves steps.

People who would prefer an enclosed main lounge should make that clear early. For an overnight enquiry, choose the bed arrangement before planning the evening meal or route.

Describe the day you want to repeat

A useful Itama brief might place the emphasis on a shared cockpit, a swim and a relaxed return to Bonifacio. Add the number of guests, children’s ages and any need for help boarding. If the 45S is a style preference rather than a fixed requirement, say which feature matters most. The response can then compare a similar open yacht on its layout and service, not simply its length.
