NEW 2026, 5 CABINS, SOLAR PANELS, ELECTRIC TOILETS, INVERTER, AIRCONDITION

Perfect for groups The Bavaria C46 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family, twelve berths across five cabins give everyone their own space without feeling cramped. At 14.9 metres, she's substantial enough to handle varied conditions while remaining manageable for mixed experience levels.

Well-equipped modern boat This 2026 model comes with practical essentials: bow thruster and autopilot take stress out of tight anchorages and longer passages, while air conditioning and heating mean you're comfortable year-round. The electric toilet and onboard entertainment keep daily life hassle-free.

Solid value proposition At €4,160 per week with a modest €3,000 deposit, this represents fair pricing for a newer, five-cabin vessel in the Adriatic. You're getting a genuinely contemporary boat rather than an older charter workhorse.

One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed, so confirm flight connections to your departure port before booking, Adriatic bases vary from Split to Šibenik, and transfer times from international airports can range significantly. Once you've got that detail, this is a solid choice for a hassle-free group sailing holiday.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Zadar, in Zadar, Croatia. Tulipa is operated by KWS Adria.

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Zadar sits at the gateway to the central Dalmatian islands, making it ideal for week-one cruising toward the Pakleni Islands and Hvar. Northwesterly winds dominate in summer, pushing you naturally down the coast; typical first-week itineraries work the 30-40 nautical mile run to Vis or Korcula, with reliable shelter in between. The shallow, island-dotted waters suit both confident and cautious sailors, and you can reach established anchorages and small-town provisioning stops within easy day-sail distances.

Can Tulipa be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Tulipa 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 Tulipa?

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.
