Solid family cruiser. The America 43 suits groups of up to six who want relaxed inland waterway cruising rather than blue-water sailing, think French canals, rivers, and lakes. It's a straightforward motor boat with three cabins, ideal for two couples or a family wanting their own space without the complexity of sail handling.

Practical standout features. The bow thruster is genuinely useful for tight canal locks and mooring, while the swimming platform adds real value for summer cruising. Bimini shade and a galley fridge keep things comfortable during warmer months, though don't expect luxury finishes on a 20-year-old vessel.

Fair value proposition. At €1,800 deposit, the pricing is reasonable for a mid-sized motor boat in this age bracket, you're paying for function over flash. Running costs on a boat this size are moderate compared to larger motor yachts, making it accessible for casual charterers.

Age consideration. Being 2004-built, expect honest wear; systems like the electric toilet and radio-CD player will reflect their vintage. Factor in that you'll want to check engine servicing history carefully before committing, as that's where older motor boats can surprise you with unexpected costs.

The marina & destination

Based at Port de Savoyeux, in Savoyeux, France. 2502 is operated by Canal Evasion.

2 Rue des Romains

Why this is a great starting point

I don't have reliable information about a marina called Port de Savoyeux in Savoyeux, France. I cannot find this location in standard nautical references or charts, and I want to avoid inventing details about its facilities, nearby cruising grounds, or sailing conditions. Could you double-check the spelling of the marina or city name? If you can confirm the correct location, I'll write an accurate summary for your clients.

Can 2502 be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter 2502 bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.

What sailing licence do I need to charter 2502?

Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.

What's included in the charter price?

The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.

How does the security deposit work?

The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.

Is the yacht insured?

Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.

What documents do I need to bring?

You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.

What payment methods are accepted?

Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.

We'll check live availability, apply any discounts, and come back within hours.
