Ideal for families This 2020 Astréa 42 catamaran suits families or small groups wanting comfort without complexity. Four cabins and 11 berths mean you can accommodate multi-generational trips or two families sharing costs, which is smart value when flying long distances to the charter base.

Solid cruising platform The catamaran hull gives you stability and space—important if anyone aboard gets seasick. Practical kit like the water maker, generator, and electric winches mean less faffing about, and the bimini keeps everyone shaded during those long Mediterranean or Caribbean days when you're anchored.

Fair pricing segment A €7,000 deposit on a 2020 four-cabin cat is reasonable and suggests competitive weekly rates. You're getting a modern boat with gear that handles both relaxed sailing and self-sufficient cruising, so the money-to-comfort ratio works.

Missing key detail The charter base location isn't listed here, which matters enormously—anchoring options, flight connections, and sailing conditions vary wildly across regions. Get that confirmed before committing, as it'll shape whether this boat suits your actual trip.

The marina & destination

Based at Les Marines de Cogolin, in Cogolin, France. Gabian is operated by Arcadie Plaisance.

36 Esplanade de la capitainerie

Can Gabian be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Gabian 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 Gabian?

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.
