About this yacht
Experience Sailing with Bavaria 45
SailChecker Expert View

Solid mid-range choice The Bavaria 45 "Aquaholic" is a well-proven cruising design that suits families and groups of four couples, or mixed crews wanting straightforward sailing without fussing over high-maintenance systems. At 14.3 metres with four proper cabins, you'll have genuine comfort rather than squeezing into tight berths.

Practical standout features Solar panels and an inverter mean you can keep batteries topped up during quieter anchorages, while the autopilot takes the grind out of longer passages. The heating is genuinely useful in shoulder seasons, and the chart plotter keeps navigation simple and modern, exactly what a 2013 build should deliver without surprises.

Fair value proposition A €2,000 deposit is reasonable, and Bavieras hold their appeal in the charter market because they're predictable performers with good resale value, so operators don't need to squeeze margins ruthlessly. You're paying for a known quantity, not glamour.

One honest note The base location isn't listed in your details, so I can't comment on flight connections or how accessible Aloha Sailing actually is from major European or UK hubs, I'd definitely confirm transfer times and flight options before committing, especially if you're flying long-haul from the US.

The marina & destination

Based at Yacht Club Mai, in Fethiye, Turkey. Aquaholic is operated by Aloha Sailing.

Fevzi Cakmak Cad. No.38 Ikinci Karagozler Mevkii

Why this is a great starting point

Yacht Club Mai in Fethiye positions you perfectly for exploring the Turkish Riviera's most protected anchorages; week one typically takes you south to Oludeniz and the Twelve Islands, or north toward Gocek's scattered bays, both easily reached in 2-4 hour hops. The sheltered waters and light summer thermal winds make this an ideal launchpad if you're new to the region, with plenty of beach stops and quiet overnight spots within a short sail. Fethiye's town facilities, provisions, and repair services mean you can extend your charter flexibly if the season's weather turns cooperative.

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