About this yacht

SailChecker Expert View

Who it suits This Bavaria 51 works brilliantly for larger groups or multi-family charters, you've got five cabins and room for up to 12, which spreads costs nicely. It's ideal if you want a comfortable, well-equipped modern cruiser that doesn't demand serious sailing expertise.

Standout features The 2019 build means everything feels current and reliable, with genuinely useful kit like bow thruster, autopilot, and air conditioning that makes extended cruising genuinely pleasant. The swimming platform and bimini are perfect for Mediterranean summer sailing, and the sprayhood keeps the watch comfortable on passage.

Value question Hard to assess fairly without seeing pricing, but the €3,000 deposit is reasonable and the operator has a solid 5/5 rating, which is a good sign for service standards. Vera appears well-maintained and comprehensively equipped for the money.

One honest note The operator location isn't shown in the listing, you'll want to confirm exactly where the base is before booking, since long-haul flights from the US, UK, or mainland Europe mean airport transfers and connection times matter a lot. Get clarity on whether it's a major hub like Split, Athens, or Palma versus somewhere more remote.

The marina & destination

Based at Lazure Meljine Marina, in Herceg Novi, Montenegro. Vera is operated by Yachtingadria.

Braće Pedišića bb

Why this is a great starting point

Lazure Meljine Marina sits in Herceg Novi at the entrance to Boka Kotorska, one of the Mediterranean's most dramatic fjord systems, making it ideal for week one exploration of steep limestone mountains and sheltered anchorages. From here you can reach the twin towns of Kotor and Perast within a few hours' sailing, or venture south along the Montenegrin coast toward the Pakleni Islands and Croatian waters, with reliable northwesterly winds typical in summer supporting easy passage. The marina provides good facilities for transit charters and serves as a natural gateway for clients arriving overland from central Europe or via direct flights to nearby Tivat.

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