SailChecker note

18 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.

Perfect for groups Jeannine is an excellent choice if you're chartering with friends or family, eleven berths across five cabins give everyone their own sleeping space without feeling cramped. At 15.5 metres, this Bavaria 50 Cruiser has the right balance of size and manageable handling for mixed-experience crews.

Strong value proposition At €4,690 per week with only a €400 deposit, you're getting a well-established cruising yacht at a competitive rate for the Mediterranean. The 2008 build means she's proven and reliable, not cutting-edge but thoroughly sea-tested, which translates to fewer surprises on the water.

Malta location advantage Basing from Malta puts you in the heart of the Central Mediterranean with easy onward sailing to Sicily, Greece, and North Africa, excellent cruising grounds. Malta Charters is a solid, established operator, and international flights into Valletta are straightforward from most major European and US hubs.

One honest note Equipment details aren't listed, so confirm exactly what's included (autopilot, GPS chartplotter, safety gear, dinghy, snorkelling kit) before booking, this affects your actual holiday experience and potential additional costs. Ask Malta Charters directly; reputable brokers should provide a detailed inventory.
