SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Argo I is an excellent choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends—ten berths across six cabins means everyone gets reasonable privacy without breaking the bank per person. At 12.6 metres, this 2023 Astréa 42 catamaran offers the stability and spaciousness catamarans are known for, making it forgiving for mixed-experience crews.

Well-equipped modern cat You're getting solid kit here: solar panels plus generator and inverter mean reliable power for longer passages, air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable in warm climates, and the autopilot takes pressure off during longer sailing days. The sprayhood and bimini suggest the operator has thought about sun and spray protection, which matters on multi-day charters.

Strong operator backing Fyly Yachting's 4.6/5 rating across 14 reviews is genuinely solid—that's consistent, real-world feedback from recent charterers. The €600 deposit is reasonable, signalling they're not trying to squeeze you on security terms.

One realistic note A six-cabin cat at this size is fairly snug when fully loaded with ten people, so manage expectations around cabin dimensions if your group values personal space highly. You'll want to confirm the charter base location and transfer logistics from your arrival airport before booking, since those logistics matter more than the boat itself on a long-haul trip.

Frequently asked questions
Can Argo I be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Argo 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 Argo 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.
