About this boat
Of the three sailing catamarans working out of Chalong Pier, Calypso is the one with a flybridge — and on a sailing cat that is unusual enough to be the reason to choose her. The upper deck gives a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree view from above the rig, which changes the experience of a slow passage entirely: instead of watching the water go by at deck level, the group sits above everything with the islands opening up ahead. She is a Lagoon from 2005, forty-four feet, taking thirty-five guests by day with a crew of three. Air conditioning in the saloon is available as a paid option at 3,210 baht, which on a Phuket afternoon is worth more than any feature list suggests.
Two day cabins and two bathrooms with a freshwater shower, a large foredeck with trampolines, a Bluetooth system with a JBL party speaker, solar power and both mains and low-voltage outlets. Seven knots cruising means the destinations are the near ones from Chalong: Racha Yai, Coral Island and Maiton. Snorkelling gear, a paddleboard and a kayak are included, and the boat starts at 31,030 baht for a low-season morning at Coral Island. Choose her over the other two catamarans if the flybridge and the cool saloon matter; choose one of them if you would rather save the difference.
One practical consequence of the flybridge on a sailing catamaran: it adds weight up high, so she is a touch more sensitive to wind than the flatter cats beside her. The crew allows for it, and the trade — a shaded upper deck with a view over the whole rig — is one most guests would make again.

Payment
- Cash, bank transfer to the company account, or credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay) or USDT.
- Accepted currencies: Thai baht, US dollars and Russian roubles.
What are the charter hours?
- Charter times are between 09:00 and 19:00.
- Please be on time — the yacht returns at the agreed hour, and a late start shortens the trip rather than extending it.
- Programmes and timing depend on weather and sea conditions. If the weather makes the planned route unworkable, we agree what to do with you individually — there is no single fixed rule, and the options depend on the boat, the date and how far the plan has to change.
- If you ask to change the departure point, the relocation is agreed separately — the boat is berthed where it is berthed, and moving it costs time and fuel.
What do you pay separately?
- National park fees, where they apply.
- Lunch on short charters — check the inclusions on the boat's own page.
- Optional extras and relocation fees.
What each boat includes differs. The exact list is on every yacht page under «Trip inclusions» and «Not included».
