SailChecker Expert View

Solid mid-range choice The Bavaria 38 Siesta suits couples and small families after comfortable cruising without breaking the bank. At 11.9m with three cabins and a sensible layout, you get genuine sleeping space without the premium price tag of newer builds.

Well-equipped for independence The autopilot, chart plotter, and solar panels signal a boat set up for longer passages and self-sufficiency, while the snorkeling kit and dinghy with outboard make exploring anchorages genuinely enjoyable. Radio-CD and cockpit speakers add a nice touch for evening entertainment.

Good value proposition At €1,733/week with only €1,300 deposit, this represents fair pricing for a three-cabin bareboat in a popular charter region. You're getting a proven design with solid equipment for the money—no frills, no surprises.

Age matters here The 2003 build year means systems and upholstery are showing their age, so expect a well-used boat rather than a pristine one. If immaculate interiors matter to you, budget for newer vessels—but if solid sailing performance and value win out, Siesta delivers.

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