Perfect for groups. The Bali 4.8 "Taurus" is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family, five cabins and nine berths give everyone their own space without feeling cramped on a 49-footer. The catamaran hull also means excellent stability and minimal motion, which matters after a long international flight to reach the charter base.

Well-equipped modern cat. This 2022 build has serious comfort credentials: air conditioning, a water maker, solar panels with inverter, and a hydraulic gangway make life genuinely easy. The cockpit is properly set up for cruising too, with autopilot, chart plotter, and a bimini for protection, you're not roughing it here.

Fair value proposition. A €4,250 deposit for a 14.9m catamaran with five cabins is reasonable, though we'd want to see the full weekly rate to judge true value. The Bali 4.8 is a proven, popular platform, so charter costs reflect solid demand.

One small note: The operator rating shows only one review so far, lovely that it's perfect, but limited feedback. Once Taurus has a few more charters under her belt, you'll get a clearer picture of real-world reliability and service from Ediba Sailing.

The marina & destination

Based at Albatros Marina, in Marmaris, Turkey. Taurus is operated by Ediba Sailing.

Why this is a great starting point

Albatros Marina in Marmaris puts you within easy reach of the Turkish Riviera's most popular week-one cruising grounds: the Bozburun Peninsula to the east and the Greek islands of Symi and Rhodes to the south, both achievable in 4-6 hours of sailing. The marina benefits from consistent northwesterly winds during summer months, which favor passages along the coast toward Datça and into the shallow bays around Ekincik. From here, a typical first week involves island-hopping between protected anchorages, exploring pine-backed coves, and visiting working fishing villages with minimal tourist infrastructure.

Can Taurus be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Taurus 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 Taurus?

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.
