The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Solid mid-range choice The Bavaria 39 is a well-proven, popular cruiser that suits confident intermediate to advanced sailors wanting a manageable boat without the complexity of a larger yacht. At 12 metres with three cabins and space for six, it's ideal for two couples or a small family wanting a genuine sailing experience rather than just floating accommodation.
Practical standout features Bavaria built these boats to be tough and straightforward, you get a solid cruising platform with decent headroom and reasonable cabin separation for privacy. The 2006 build age means systems are proven and spare parts aren't exotic, which matters when you're chartering long-distance from home.
Fair value proposition At €1,800 per week with a modest €1,500 deposit, this represents realistic pricing for a three-cabin sailboat in that era. You're not paying premium rates, but you're also getting an honest boat rather than a bargain basement surprise, good middle ground for a week's holiday.
One honest note A 2006 yacht is approaching 20 years old, so you'll want to inspect systems (electrics, engine, standing rigging) carefully before committing. Nothing alarming, but factor in that you may encounter the occasional quirk during your charter that a newer boat wouldn't throw at you.
