Bavaria 46 Cruiser | Summer Breeze

Q: Can Summer Breeze be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Summer Breeze 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.

Q: What sailing licence do I need to charter Summer Breeze?

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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Perfect for families This 2024 Bavaria 46 suits groups of up to 8 who want comfort without breaking the bank, the four cabins mean no one's cramped, and the air conditioning is a genuine game-changer for warmer Mediterranean or Caribbean waters.

Standout features Solar panels and a generator give you serious independence; the autopilot and chart plotter handle navigation effortlessly, while the bimini keeps the sun at bay during those long days at anchor. Fair Wind clearly equips their boats well for real cruising, not just posing.

Good value proposition A nearly-new Bavaria with this kit and layout typically offers solid bang for your euro, you're getting a modern, well-maintained boat with the essentials included, and the €2000 deposit is reasonable.

Missing one detail The charter base location isn't listed, so we can't comment on airport transfer times or sailing conditions, which matter hugely when you're flying from the US or Europe. Once you know where she's based, you'll want to check flight connections and local wind patterns for your dates.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Split, in Split, Croatia. Summer Breeze is operated by Fair Wind.

Uvala Baluni 8

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Split sits at the heart of the Dalmatian coast, giving you immediate access to the sheltered island-hopping grounds of central Dalmatia within a 20-nautical-mile radius. Week one typically involves cruising south toward Hvar and Vis, or north to Trogir and the Pakleni Islands, with consistent northwesterly winds (the Maestral) favouring both directions. The marina itself is well-equipped with provisioning and repair facilities, and the nearby medieval Old Town means crew can explore while the boat is prepared.
