Day boat option The Aquila 28 is a modern open-air day cruiser with no overnight cabins, so it's built for exploring during daylight hours rather than live-aboard charter. This 2023 motor boat suits groups wanting flexibility to return to a waterside hotel or villa each evening while still enjoying a proper vessel experience.

Solid comfort features The teak deck and bow thruster are genuinely useful touches for a 9.4-metre boat, the thruster makes tight mooring situations much easier, and teak adds both durability and that proper yacht feel. You'll also find a chart plotter for navigation and a coffee maker to keep spirits up during a full day on the water.

Reasonable deposit required At €3,950, the deposit is fairly standard for a new build in this size range. Without seeing the daily rate, it's hard to assess absolute value, but the 2023 build quality and practical equipment suggest you're not paying for age or compromise.

Location matters here The charter base isn't specified in the listing, which is a red flag, you'll need to contact Free Charter Srl directly to confirm where you'll actually collect the boat and factor in your international travel. Once you know the base, check airport transfer times and whether English-speaking support is available during your charter.

The marina & destination

Based at Cannigione, in Cannigione, Italy. Eagle I is operated by Free Charter Srl.

Why this is a great starting point

Cannigione lies on the north coast of Sardinia and offers straightforward access to the Maddalena Archipelago, a cluster of granite islands with excellent holding and protected anchorages reachable in 2-3 hours under sail. Week 1 typically takes you through island-hopping around Caprera and Santo Stefano, with consistent northwesterly winds providing reliable sailing. The shallow, clear waters suit both confident sailors and those seeking gentler conditions, while the nearby Costa Smeralda provides an alternative route east if you prefer busier ports and steeper sailing angles.

Can Eagle I be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Eagle I 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 Eagle I?

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.
