SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for small crews. The Bavaria C42 is an excellent three-cabin monohull that sleeps up to eight, making it ideal for couples, small families, or friends who want affordable shared costs without sacrificing comfort or sailing performance.

Smart modern kit. Solar panels, bow thruster, autopilot, and dual chart plotters mean less physical effort on the water and more time enjoying it—especially useful when you're flying in jet-lagged and want straightforward handling rather than a workout.

Solid value proposition. At this size and spec, you're getting very good kit for a 2022 boat, and Ionian Catamarans' perfect 5-star rating (albeit from a small sample) suggests reliable service and well-maintained vessels, which matters when chartering internationally.

One small note. The operator's review base is tiny—just two ratings—so while encouraging, it's not a large data set yet; chat directly with them about recent client feedback and any seasonal quirks before committing.

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