SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for established sailors This 2006 Bavaria 42 is a proven cruising platform that suits confident sailors and experienced crews looking for genuine comfort without premium pricing. The three-cabin layout sleeps seven, making it perfect for friends or multi-family groups wanting to split costs fairly.

Well-equipped for independence You get practical cruising essentials here: solar panels for extended anchoring, autopilot to ease long passages, chart plotter in the cockpit, and a dinghy with outboard for exploring. The bimini, sprayhood, and cockpit cushions show the owner understands Mediterranean cruising comfort.

Strong value proposition At €2,186 per week with a tiny €500 deposit and a flawless 5/5 operator rating across four reviews, this represents genuine charter value. For an international traveler factoring in flights to the base, you're getting a reliable boat where your money goes toward sailing rather than marketing.

Age is the honest caveat At nearly 20 years old, this Bavaria is still seaworthy and well-maintained, but expect character rather than showroom finishes. If you're flying long-haul and need reassurance about mechanical reliability, request a detailed pre-departure video walkthrough from ARCHON before committing.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kos, in Kos, Greece. Toisjo is operated by ARCHON Yachting.

G. Papandreou Str

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.

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