Ideal for families The Bali 5.8 is a spacious catamaran that suits larger groups or families wanting comfort and room to spread out, five cabins sleeping eight is genuinely generous for a 17.6-metre boat. The shallow draft (typical for catamarans) means you can anchor in shallow bays where monohulls can't reach, which is brilliant for exploring quieter spots.

Well-equipped modern yacht This 2026 build comes with the essentials done right: electric winches and autopilot take the physical grind out of sailing, air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable in warm climates, and the swimming platform is a proper bonus for hot days. The dinghy and outboard engine are included, so water exploration is straightforward from anchor.

Reasonable value proposition The €1,000 deposit is refreshingly low, which suggests competitive weekly rates, typical for a Bali 5.8 in 2026. You're getting a relatively new catamaran with solid kit, which means fewer surprises and better reliability than older vessels.

One practical note The charter operator information appears incomplete in your data, so before booking, confirm exactly where the base is located and how far from your nearest international airport the transfer actually is, some Caribbean or Mediterranean bases require 2-3+ hours driving, which matters when you're flying long-haul.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina di Portisco, in Portisco, Italy. Corto Maltese II is operated by Barcando Charter.

Str. Panoramica Costa Smeralda Km0,100

Why this is a great starting point

Marina di Portisco sits on Sardinia's northeast coast and provides excellent access to the Maddalena archipelago, reachable in 15-20 nautical miles on a typical northwesterly breeze. Week 1 charters work well as sheltered day hops between granite-studded islands with good holding in sandy bays, or longer passages south to the Costa Smeralda if conditions favour. The marina itself offers full facilities and lies close enough to Porto Cervo for provisioning, making it a practical base for both relaxed cruising and more ambitious sailing.

Can Corto Maltese II be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Corto Maltese II 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 Corto Maltese II?

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.
