SailChecker Expert View

Perfect starter choice This 2023 Bavaria Cruiser 34 suits couples or small families wanting an accessible introduction to sailing without overwhelming complexity. At just over 10 metres, she's manageable for less experienced skippers while still offering genuine cruising comfort.

Well-equipped modern boat You're getting genuinely useful kit here, autopilot and bow thruster take the stress out of tight anchorages, the chart plotter keeps navigation straightforward, and a swimming platform is always a plus in Scandinavian waters. The sprayhood and two proper cabins mean real cruising rather than camping.

Solid value proposition At €3,500 per week from a reputable Swedish operator, this sits at the realistic sweet spot for a newer, properly maintained production cruiser. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, and you're not paying premium prices for a boat that does exactly what it promises.

One realistic note Swedish bases require patience with flight connections for most international clients, expect at least one stopover getting to Stockholm or the west coast. If you're based in the US or further south in Europe, factor in 24+ hours of travel time, which is just the reality of Nordic sailing rather than a fault of this particular boat.

The marina & destination

Based at Saltsjö Pir Marina, in Stockholm - Saltsjöbaden, Sweden. EIGHTEEN is operated by Yachtcharter Sweden.

Why this is a great starting point

Saltsjö Pir Marina sits on Stockholm's doorstep with easy access to the Stockholm archipelago, where week one typically involves cruising through thousands of islands with protected anchorages and short hops between them. The relatively sheltered waters and moderate summer winds make this ideal for exploring granite skerries, rocky islets, and quiet bays within 20-30 nautical miles of the marina. This location works well for sailors wanting to combine city access with remote cruising, though northerly and easterly winds can funnel through the archipelago channels.

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