Refundable security deposit

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples Little Joe is an ideal choice for two people seeking a comfortable weeklong escape on a manageable, well-equipped sailing yacht. The 2018 Bavaria Cruiser 34 offers modern comfort without the complexity of larger vessels, making it accessible for sailors of varying experience levels.

Solid cruising kit You're getting the essentials here: autopilot takes the strain out of longer passages, the bimini and sprayhood keep you protected from sun and spray, and proper amenities like refrigeration and inverter mean you won't be roughing it. Teak cockpit and cushions add a touch of class to your on-deck time.

Honest value proposition At €1,750 per week with a modest €1,500 deposit, this is reasonable pricing for a modern, well-maintained boat of this size—though the single 5-star review doesn't give us much confidence data to work with. You're paying fair rates for a 2018 boat in what appears to be solid condition.

One real constraint The charter base location isn't listed in your specs, so I can't advise on airport logistics or whether this suits your travel plans from the US, UK, or Europe. Before booking, confirm where Little Joe lives and how that airport transfer works for your international journey.

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