What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Sleek, modern cruiser The Axopar 37 is a contemporary Swedish-built motor boat that punches above its weight for a compact 37-footer. Its distinctive Sun Top design offers excellent weather protection while maintaining that open-air feel, making it ideal for weekend getaways or short Mediterranean hops.
Who it suits best This works perfectly for couples or small families (up to 4) who prioritize comfort and ease of handling over mega-yacht glitz. If you're flying in from the US or further afield and want a boat that's genuinely fun to pilot without the stress of sailing, this hits the sweet spot, bow thruster makes tight anchorages straightforward.
Value consideration At 2024 spec with modern equipment and only 2 cabins for 4 berths, pricing will be mid-range for this segment. The deposit sits at a reasonable €3,000, though you'll want to confirm what's included (fuel, insurance, provisioning) directly with Baotic.
Fair warning on operator Baotic's 3.7/5 rating from just 3 reviews is thin data, not necessarily a red flag, but worth asking existing clients about boat condition, check-in experience, and responsiveness before committing, especially given the long journey most SailChecker clients make to reach the base.

Where Charters WentTop Stop: Uvala Stonca, 44% of trips
The heat map shows recorded overnight stops from round trips made by charter yachts tracked by AIS from Split, Kaštela, Trogir and the Makarska Riviera during the 2026 season so far. You can use it to see where those yachts spent their nights and compare that with your own yacht charter plans. It is not a navigation guide.
Uvala Stonca appeared on 44% of trips, ACI Palmižana on 36%, and Stari Grad and Maslinica each on 23%. Maslinica was the most common first night at 14% and last night at 8%. The furthest straight-line point from base was 20 to 40 nm on 59% of trips, with another 27% reaching 40 to 60 nm.
