Perfect starter choice This 2009 Bavaria 38 suits couples and small families new to bareboat sailing or those wanting a relaxed, manageable week without complexity. At 12.1 metres with just two cabins, she's intimate but genuinely liveable for up to six people if you don't mind close quarters.

Solid practical kit She's equipped with the essentials: autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, the outboard engine handles tricky harbour work, and an inverter means you can keep phones charged without running the main engine constantly. The paddle board is a nice bonus for exploring shallow anchorages or a lazy afternoon swim.

Sensible value proposition At this vintage and size, you're looking at honest, no-frills sailing rather than luxury, which keeps charter rates accessible for families stretching budgets. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests the operator runs a straightforward commercial model without hidden catches.

Check the berth reality While she sleeps six on paper, the two-cabin layout means tight shared spaces—fine for two couples or a family with young kids, but potentially cramped for six adults wanting privacy. Before booking, confirm whether the forecast conditions suit your sailing confidence, as a 38-footer in strong wind requires decent boat-handling skills.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Paleros, in Palairos, Greece. Mr Bojangles is operated by Alsalos Yachting.

Can Mr Bojangles be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Mr Bojangles 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 Mr Bojangles?

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.
