Beneteau Oceanis 41 Katalina – Three-Cabin Yacht Hire from Santa Cruz

Description

If you prefer to begin your sailing holiday in Santa Cruz rather than one of Tenerife's southern marinas, Katalina is worth a look. This Beneteau Oceanis 41 combines three private double cabins with a bright shared saloon and a cockpit that is easy to settle into between sailing sessions.

Beneteau Oceanis 41 Katalina is a 12.43-metre sailing yacht built in 2012 and berthed at Marina Santa Cruz in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Operated by ECC Yacht, it is a practical option for a family or a few friends who want a boat with a comfortable sleeping layout and a choice of sailing arrangements.

Three double cabins sleep six people, and two additional berths in the saloon bring the supplier's listed sleeping capacity to eight. Those extra berths use the communal living space, so a group of six may find the layout more relaxed. There are two bathrooms with showers. For meals aboard, the galley includes a fridge, oven, cooker and sink, plus the usual kitchen utensils. Pillows and blankets are listed, while bed linen and towels appear as separately priced extras.

The yacht carries a classic mainsail, autopilot and an outside GPS plotter. A bimini provides shade in the cockpit, while the bathing platform and outside shower are useful when enjoying time near the water. An onboard dinghy and indoor and outdoor speakers are also listed. Katalina is available for an appropriately qualified skipper to charter independently, subject to ECC Yacht accepting their sailing credentials, or with a professional skipper booked as an optional extra. Share your dates and group size to request availability and a complete cost breakdown.

Why choose this yacht

Katalina suits travellers who want a straightforward sailing yacht with three separate double cabins and a departure point in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The two bathrooms, galley and shaded cockpit make it a practical choice for a group staying aboard rather than simply taking a short boat trip.

Who is this yacht for?

Three couples or a family of up to six who want double cabins, or up to eight if two guests use the saloon berths. If hiring a skipper, clarify their accommodation and the remaining guest sleeping capacity before confirming the charter.

What to expect

Practical tips

Katalina is based at Marina Santa Cruz, in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. For daily hire the supplier gives a 09:00–10:00 pick-up window and 17:00–18:00 return; longer bookings have different handover times. Most on-site extras are listed as cash-only, whereas the refundable security deposit may be handled by cash or card. Check current payment requirements, the meeting point and accepted qualifications with ECC Yacht in advance.
