SailChecker Expert View

Solid Mid-Range Choice The Bavaria 38 is a proven, comfortable cruiser that suits couples or small families who want straightforward sailing without fuss. With 3 cabins and space for 6, it's roomy enough for two couples or a family, and the 2004 build means you're getting a reliable, well-sorted platform.

Practical Standout Features The teak cockpit feels premium, and the hydraulic gangway is genuinely useful for boarding after a swim or dinghy trip. Solar panels plus inverter mean you'll have decent battery power for longer anchor-outs, and the electric toilet keeps things civilized—modern conveniences that make cruising easier.

Fair Value Proposition At this price point (deposit €3,500), you're getting honest value for a mature but functional boat based in Sardinia's excellent sailing grounds. The equipment list is sensible rather than flashy, which usually means good maintenance on essentials.

One Honest Caveat The operator's 3.3/5 rating from 19 reviews is a yellow flag worth investigating—read a few recent reviews closely before committing. It's not a dealbreaker, but you'll want to understand whether issues were one-offs or patterns before flying long-haul to collect the boat.

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