Solid family choice The Bavaria Cruiser 37 suits couples and small families after a comfortable, manageable sailing experience without excessive complexity. At 11.3 metres with three cabins sleeping six, you get decent space without needing a crew or advanced sailing skills.

Smart cruising features The sprayhood keeps everyone dry during passages, the swimming platform adds holiday appeal, and a chart plotter handles navigation reliably. These aren't flashy extras, they're the practical touches that make Mediterranean or coastal cruising genuinely enjoyable.

Fair value proposition A 2014 Bavaria at this size represents dependable, well-maintained charter stock that won't surprise you with hidden costs. The €2000 deposit is reasonable, though you'll want to confirm what the weekly rate is, that's crucial for your budget.

One practical heads-up Bavaria Cruisers are workhorses, but this is a 2014 model, so depending on charter hours and maintenance schedules, you might encounter slightly older cabin furnishings or electronics compared to newer boats. Ask IRIS directly about recent refits and whether the radio-CD player actually gets used (many sailors skip it for smartphones these days).

The marina & destination

Based at Club Nàutic S`Arenal, in El Arenal, Spain. Chilly Lilly is operated by IRIS Yachtcharter.

Why this is a great starting point

Club Nàutic S'Arenal sits on Mallorca's east coast and offers straightforward access to the Balearic cruising grounds. Week one typically involves sailing south to Cabrera National Park (a full day's reach) or north along the sheltered east coast towards Cala Millor and beyond, with moderate easterly winds dominating summer months. The shallow, protected waters nearby suit lighter air conditions, though you'll need to plan passages carefully if heading further afield to Menorca or Ibiza.

Can Chilly Lilly be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Chilly Lilly 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 Chilly Lilly?

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.
