Who suits this The Bavaria 46 works brilliantly for families or small groups of 4, 6 wanting comfortable, low-stress sailing without compromising on space. With four cabins and solid cruising features, it's ideal for mixed-ability crews or anyone prioritising liveable accommodation over performance racing.

Standout features You get genuine cruising comfort here: bow thruster for tight marina work, autopilot for longer passages, heating for shoulder seasons, and a swimming platform that actually encourages you to use the water. The sprayhood and bimini mean you're protected from the elements while staying connected to sailing, no stuffy cabin cruising.

Value proposition At €2,460 per week with a modest €2,000 deposit, this Bavaria punches well above its price point for European cruising. It's a 2015 build with solid mid-range spec, you're paying for reliable comfort, not cutting-edge tech or racing credentials, which keeps costs sensible for international charterers flying in.

One honest note The listing doesn't specify the charter base location, which matters significantly for flight connections and whether you're looking at a 45-minute drive or a 3-hour transfer from your arrival airport. I'd recommend confirming the exact base and transfer logistics before booking, that detail affects the whole trip's convenience factor.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Hramina, in Murter, Croatia. MH 53 is operated by Marina Hramina.

Put Gradine 1

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Hramina sits on Murter island in central Dalmatia, giving you direct access to the Kornati archipelago within a day's sail. Week 1 typically involves exploring the 140-plus islands and islets of the Kornati National Park, with short hops between anchorages and established mooring fields; prevailing northwesterly winds (Bora) and southeasterly winds (Jugo) allow flexible routing through the labyrinth. The nearby Sibenik area and Krka river estuary offer alternative cruising if you want to head south, while the marina itself provides reliable facilities and holds good shelter from most wind directions.

Can MH 53 be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter MH 53 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 MH 53?

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.
