What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
19 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Solid family cruiser The Bavaria 46 is a well-proven platform that suits families or small groups wanting comfort without breaking the bank. Four cabins sleeping nine makes it generous for its size, and the 2007 build means it's experienced but still relevant for modern cruising.
Practical standout features You've got the essentials covered: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot for longer passages, chart plotter for navigation, and heating for shoulder-season cruising. The multiple dinghies are a genuine bonus if you're island-hopping, and the bimini keeps sun exposure manageable during long days at anchor.
Fair value proposition At this size and age, the Bavaria 46 typically offers good bang for your euro, you're not paying premium rates for a newer flagship. The €1500 deposit is reasonable, though check the weekly rate carefully against comparable 4-cabin options in the fleet.
One honest note The operator has only one review on record, so there's limited feedback on their service standards. Before committing, ask DeToni directly about check-in/check-out procedures, support availability during your charter, and any recent refits, it'll give you confidence you're dealing with professionals who back their boats.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
