Ideal for families The Bavaria 46 is a solid choice for groups of up to eight seeking comfortable, manageable sailing without sacrificing livability. Four cabins and thoughtful amenities make it work well for multi-generational trips or two couples wanting their own space.

Well-equipped cruiser You're getting serious kit here, bow thruster for tight anchorages, solar panels for extended cruising, air conditioning for hot climates, and a teak deck that feels proper. The sprayhood and bimini mean you won't be cooking in the sun, and autopilot handles those longer passages so you can actually relax.

Solid value proposition At 14.3 metres with four cabins and this spec level, the pricing is competitive for European charter bases. The low deposit (€2,500) is refreshingly reasonable and suggests the operator isn't overly paranoid about damage claims.

One fair caveat The operator has only one review on file, so you're chartering with limited track record visibility, nothing alarming, but worth checking recent feedback directly with Imbat Yacht before committing. Otherwise, this is a dependable workhorse that delivers what it promises.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Imbat, in Fethiye, Turkey. Zulu is operated by Imbat Yacht.

Karagözler, 2, Fevzi Çakmak Cd. No:161

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Imbat sits in Fethiye's well-protected natural harbour, offering straightforward access to the Turkish Riviera's most varied cruising grounds. From here, week 1 typically takes you south along the Lycian coast towards Ölüdeniz and Butterfly Valley, or northeast into the maze of islands and anchorages around Ekincik; prevailing westerlies make both routes achievable with manageable daily hops of 15-25 nautical miles. The marina serves as an ideal base for exploring a coastline of high rocky peaks, Greco-Roman ruins, and quiet bays, with Fethiye town providing good provisioning and crew changes.

Can Zulu be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Zulu 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 Zulu?

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.

We'll check live availability, apply any discounts, and come back within hours.
