Bavaria 51 Cruiser | Seawalker

Q: Can Seawalker be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Seawalker 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 Seawalker?

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 groups This 2022 Bavaria 51 is genuinely well-suited to larger parties or families wanting a floating holiday home, five cabins sleeping ten mean no one's cramped, and she's new enough that systems should be reliable. The boat specs clearly prioritize comfort over bare-bones sailing.

Smart comfort kit Solar panels, generator, air conditioning, heating, and a bow thruster make life genuinely easier, especially if your crew includes less experienced sailors or you want to avoid stressful marina maneuvers. That's thoughtful kit for a modern cruiser, and the bimini plus sprayhood keep you protected from Atlantic or Mediterranean weather.

Reasonable value proposition At 15.6 meters with five cabins, the charter economics work well for splitting costs across a larger group, per-person fees drop significantly compared to smaller boats. The 2022 build year and solid equipment list suggest fair pricing for what you're getting.

One honest note We don't have the daily rate here, so confirm what's actually included (fuel, mooring, insurance, skipper fees) before committing, some operators bundle differently, and the €3,500 deposit tells us little about the total outlay for a week-long charter from the base location.

The marina & destination

Based at Yacht Classic Hotel, in Fethiye, Turkey. Seawalker is operated by LoveSail.net.

Fevzi Cakmak Cad. No:24

Why this is a great starting point

Yacht Classic Hotel in Fethiye puts you within striking distance of the Turquoise Coast's best anchorages; week 1 typically runs south toward Ölüdeniz and the Butterfly Valley, or east into the calm waters around Ekincik and the Dalyan estuary. The bay itself offers protection from the prevailing northwesterly winds, making it an ideal base for familiarising yourself with your boat before heading to the Greek islands or deeper into the Turkish Aegean. Most charterers use Fethiye as a springboard for 10-14 day loops that include the Twelve Islands and the sheltered bays between Göcek and Marmaris.
