JIKAN
Advanced Italian Yachts launched the A80 performance cruiser JIKAN in 2018, combining Reichel/Pugh naval architecture with Nauta Yachts interior design across 24 metres of composite hull. With a 3.50-metre draft and 326 square metres of sail area, she delivers genuine sailing performance while her full-displacement hull keeps her steady at anchor. A retractable cockpit roof and two generous aft-deck sunpads give guests flexible outdoor living in the Sardinian sun.
Below deck, three en-suite cabins accommodate six guests. The owner's suite aft has the feel of a private apartment, with a queen bed, desk, sofa, and a large bathroom finished with a separate shower behind its own door. Two twin cabins midship, each fitted with pullman beds, complete the layout.
Captain Alessandro Sasso holds a Master 500 Tons licence and speaks English, French, and Spanish. Deckhand Chiara Gerli brings over ten years of experience and is a certified PADI dive instructor, while stewardess and cook Elisa Avran rounds out the crew of three.
JIKAN operates from Portisco in northern Sardinia, placing the Costa Smeralda, the Maddalena Archipelago, and Corsica within easy reach. Toys include a Williams jet tender, SUP, adult waterski, snorkel gear for eight, fishing equipment, and children's life jackets.

Key details to help you prepare for your charter experience.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is a pre-paid amount given to the yacht to cover costs like food & drinks on board, fuel, and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, we'll provide you with an itemized breakdown of the expenses, and any unused funds will be refunded to you.
Your Captain will keep you updated if you're close to exceeding your budget. If necessary, they'll discuss how to proceed, which usually involves a simple bank transfer to replenish the allowance.
We recommend around 10-15% of the charter fee as gratuity for the crew. It's thoughtful to prepare a thank-you card or envelope to make the process easier.
We'll provide you with the Captain's contact details well ahead of your charter. We can also create a group chat with you and the Captain to go over any plans and preferences before you board.
We follow MYBA and CYBA contract standards, these internationally recognized agreements offer clarity and security throughout your charter experience.
If you're ever uncertain about what's included or have any questions, feel free to ask your broker at Frontier Yachting. We're here to ensure your charter experience is perfect.
