Charter a Princess V40 in Bonifacio

A cockpit that keeps the group together

The modern model reference measures 12.98 metres overall including the pulpit, with a 3.81-metre beam. An optional aft sunbed conversion changes how that cockpit can be used at rest. For a small Bonifacio party, the appeal is the short distance between conversation, refreshments and the view; there are no separate upper lounges to divide the gathering.

A short coastal plan can be enough

From Bonifacio, the harbour departure and first view of the cliffs are already part of the outing. Allow space in the day for that transition before adding a distant objective. A relaxed request might prioritise coastal scenery, one suitable swimming stop and an unhurried return.

Describe those priorities instead of asking the skipper to fit an island list into every weather window. The direction and sheltered stop can then follow the conditions and the actual yacht.

Think through shade and time below

A compact sports yacht works best when everyone understands where the day will happen. Count usable shaded seats for your party and consider whether anyone needs to lie down indoors. The forward cabin has bathroom access, while the aft cabin’s bed arrangement can vary.

For a day charter those rooms may be useful for changing or resting; for an overnight enquiry, the sleeping plan deserves closer attention. Share children’s ages and any difficulty using steps early in the conversation.

Build the request around one gathering

Tell us whether lunch, swimming or a quiet view of the coast should receive the most time. If lunch matters, explain whether you prefer a simple meal aboard or a shore stop with its own transfer requirements. Soft luggage and a compact change of clothes are easier to manage than large bags on a yacht of this size. Include your preferred boarding time and the time you need to be back in Bonifacio, so the proposal protects the useful hours between them.

A useful comparison request

If the V40’s size appeals, describe which feature you would preserve in a comparable yacht: a sheltered cockpit, space for a couple, or convenient facilities below. That gives the enquiry a clear purpose even when another model better fits the date and party.
