About this yacht
NO SECURITY DEPOSIT NEEDED
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups Zen Flow is an excellent choice for families or friends looking to share costs on a spacious catamaran, four cabins and eight berths mean comfortable accommodation without feeling cramped, and the 2025 build ensures everything is modern and reliable.

Well-equipped for independence This boat ticks all the boxes for self-sufficient cruising: water maker, solar panels, electric winches, and autopilot mean you can spend longer at anchor without worrying about resupply, while the snorkeling gear and SUP keep everyone entertained between sailing days.

Strong value proposition A zero deposit is refreshing and removes friction from booking, combined with four cabins on an 11.8m cat, you're looking at genuinely competitive per-person costs for a new, well-spec'd vessel with genuinely useful features like a coffee maker and teak cockpit.

One practical note The charter base location isn't listed in your data, so confirm transfer times from your nearest international airport before booking; catamaran bases can vary significantly in accessibility depending on region, and you'll want to factor that into your travel logistics from the US or Europe.

The marina & destination

Based at Mare Fun Charter & Marina, in Golfo Aranci, Italy. Zen Flow is operated by MadMax Franchising Nautico.

Via dei Marinai

Why this is a great starting point

Mare Fun is well-positioned on Sardinia's northeast coast to explore the granite islands and sheltered anchorages of the Maddalena Archipelago, reachable in 2-3 hours under normal summer conditions. Week 1 charters typically work north through the archipelago's island-hopping route, with reliable northwest winds making the return to Golfo Aranci straightforward for turnaround day. The marina's location also serves as a gateway to the Costa Smeralda's deeper anchorages and the Straits of Bonifacio if conditions allow.

Frequently asked questions
Can Zen Flow be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Zen Flow 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 Zen Flow?
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.
