Ce tout nouveau BALI 4.2 est à la location sur notre base nautique !

Perfect for groups. The Bali 4.2 is an excellent catamaran for families or friends wanting comfortable shared holidays, four cabins sleep up to 10, so it's ideal if you're chartering with extended groups or want roomy individual cabins rather than cramped quarters.

Well-equipped modern boat. This 2025 model comes with genuinely useful kit: solar panels and a water maker mean less reliance on shore facilities, while the generator, electric toilet, and onboard TV suggest thoughtful provisioning for longer passages or settled cruising. The bimini top is essential for tropical or Mediterranean summer sailing.

Solid value proposition. At this size and spec, the €6,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests competitive daily rates through Arcadie Plaisance, a reputable French operator with English-speaking support, which matters when you're flying in from abroad.

One practical note: We don't have the base location listed here, so do confirm the charter area with Arcadie, whether it's the Mediterranean, Caribbean, or elsewhere will affect your flight logistics and what sailing conditions to expect.

The marina & destination

Based at Port Grimaud, in Grimaud, France. Matacena is operated by Arcadie Plaisance.

Why this is a great starting point

Port Grimaud is a sheltered base on the French Riviera's Côte d'Azur, ideal for exploring the Îles d'Hyères (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, and Levant) within easy day sailing. Week 1 typically involves short hops eastward along the coast toward Saint-Tropez or westward to Sainte-Maxime, with consistent northwesterly Mistral winds making beam or broad reach sailing the norm. The marina itself sits in a protected lagoon, reducing exposure to open swell and offering simple access to some of the Mediterranean's most popular cruising grounds without long initial passages.

Can Matacena be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Matacena 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 Matacena?

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.
