SailChecker Expert View

Solid mid-range cruiser. The Bavaria 38 is a proven workhorse that suits couples or small families wanting straightforward sailing without fuss. At 11.8m, she's big enough to feel comfortable but nimble enough to explore shallow anchorages and quieter spots.

Well-equipped basics. This boat ticks the practical boxes, autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, the bow thruster makes tight mooring situations manageable, and the sprayhood keeps spray off in choppy conditions. The swimming platform is a genuine bonus for warm-water destinations, and three cabins give reasonable privacy for groups of four to six.

Genuinely keen pricing. At €1,530 per week with only a €3,000 deposit, this represents solid value for a 2008 boat in this size bracket, especially if you're chartering in the Mediterranean or Baltic where Bavaria has strong support networks. You're paying for accessibility rather than luxury, which is honest.

Age worth noting. Built in 2008, she's now 16 years old, so expect occasional quirks and potentially higher maintenance surprises than a newer model. Request a detailed pre-charter survey report and confirm what's been recently serviced, engine, through-hulls, and standing rigging deserve particular attention on boats of this age.

The marina & destination

Based at Saltsjö Pir Marina, in Stockholm - Saltsjöbaden, Sweden. White Lady is operated by Sailmarine.

Brantvgen 3

Why this is a great starting point

Saltsjö Pir Marina sits on Stockholm's doorstep with easy access to the Stockholm archipelago, where week one typically involves cruising through thousands of islands with protected anchorages and short hops between them. The relatively sheltered waters and moderate summer winds make this ideal for exploring granite skerries, rocky islets, and quiet bays within 20-30 nautical miles of the marina. This location works well for sailors wanting to combine city access with remote cruising, though northerly and easterly winds can funnel through the archipelago channels.

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