SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for larger groups The Wave Dancer suits families or friends wanting genuine space—five cabins and ten berths mean everyone has their own bunk without feeling cramped. At 15.4 metres, she's substantial enough to absorb rough weather yet manageable for a crew of four to six with basic sailing experience.

Solid cruising setup The essentials are there: bow thruster for easy marina work, autopilot for longer passages, and modern navigation via chart plotter. Solar panels plus inverter suggest decent self-sufficiency between stops, which matters when island-hopping in the Ionian—you won't be tethered to shore power constantly.

Real value proposition At €1,960 per week with only a €2,000 deposit, this represents honest pricing for a five-cabin boat in a beautiful sailing region. You're paying for reliable comfort rather than cutting-edge luxury, which is exactly what most charter groups actually need.

One practical note A 2007 build means she's entered her mid-life phase—nothing alarming, but factor in that some systems may need attention during your week. Before booking, confirm directly with Ionian Island World what recent refits or upgrades have been done, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Frequently asked questions
Can Wave Dancer be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Wave Dancer 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 Wave Dancer?
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.
