SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for larger groups. This Bavaria C57 is built for extended family trips or friends' getaways—six cabins sleep up to 12, making per-person costs very reasonable for bigger parties. It's roomy enough that people won't feel cramped sharing a boat for a week.

Well-equipped and modern. The 2021 build means reliable systems; the bow thruster, autopilot, and chart plotter take stress out of handling and navigation, while the bimini and sprayhood keep you comfortable in varying conditions. Refrigeration is standard, which matters on longer passages.

Fair value proposition. The €3,500 deposit is moderate for a 57-footer, and AF Yachting's 4.3-star rating suggests consistent delivery—though with only three reviews, that's a modest track record to assess. You're getting a capable, contemporary vessel at a sensible price point for group charters.

One honest note: The charter base location isn't listed here, so I'd confirm flight connections and transfer times from your nearest airport before booking. That detail often makes or breaks the experience for international guests flying in from the US or distant European hubs.

Frequently asked questions
Can AF-BC57 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter AF-BC57 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 AF-BC57?
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.
