SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Alnair is an excellent choice if you're chartering with family or friends, four cabins and ten berths mean you can split costs and enjoy shared sailing without cramped quarters. A 2018 Bavaria is a proven, well-maintained design that handles blue-water cruising with confidence.

Smart practical features Electric winches and a sprayhood make handling easier and keep the cockpit dry in choppy conditions, which matters on longer passages. The chart plotter and dinghy round out a setup that's genuinely ready to explore, not just day-sail.

Solid value proposition At this size and age with that equipment list, the pricing sits in the sensible middle ground, you're not overpaying for newness, but you get a reliable platform. A €3,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests the operator has confidence in their fleet.

One practical note The operator rating is solid at 4.5/5, though only two reviews means limited feedback history. Before booking, confirm your charter base location and typical airport transfer times, Starsail operates several bases, and proximity to a major European hub (or connecting flights) will affect your overall travel day significantly.

The marina & destination

Based at Salerno, in Salerno, Italy. Alnair is operated by Starsail.

Why this is a great starting point

Salerno Marina sits perfectly for exploring the Amalfi Coast and Campania region; you can reach Positano, Ravello, and the dramatic cliffside anchorages within a few hours under sail or motor. Week 1 typically involves gentle coastal hops along the Sorrentine Peninsula with frequent stops for swimming and village visits, though summer northwesterlies can make afternoons lumpy and may push you toward protected southern-facing bays. The marina provides good provisioning and is close to Naples airport for transatlantic arrivals, though limited charter selection means booking well ahead.

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