SailChecker Expert View

Solid mid-range cruiser The Bavaria Cruiser 37 suits couples and small families wanting a manageable, well-equipped boat without the complexity of larger vessels. At 11.3 metres with three cabins and eight berths, it strikes a practical balance between comfort and ease of handling.

Smart feature set You get genuinely useful kit here: radar and chart plotter for navigation confidence, solar panels to reduce engine hours, and a sprayhood for Atlantic or Mediterranean conditions. The radio-CD player is a nice touch for those quieter anchorages, though it's hardly cutting-edge entertainment.

Strong value proposition At €1,920 per week with only a €2,000 deposit, this represents honest pricing for a 2016 Bavaria in active charter service. Assuming MainSail Yachting operates from a Mediterranean or Atlantic base, you're looking at a manageable week's commitment that won't break the bank.

One practical note The base location isn't listed in your data, which matters for transatlantic fliers, check whether MainSail's fleet sits near a major hub (say, Barcelona or the Canaries) or requires an extra transfer. That said, Bavaria Cruisers are friendly boats; if you've sailed similar rigs before, you'll feel at home immediately.

The marina & destination

Based at Achillio port, in Achillio, Greece. Florentia is operated by MainSail Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

I don't have reliable information about an "Achillio port" in Greece. This may be a spelling variation or a smaller facility I cannot verify with confidence. To give you accurate guidance on cruising grounds, prevailing winds, and week-one itineraries, I'd need to confirm the correct name and location. Could you double-check the spelling or provide the region (Ionian, Aegean, etc.) where this marina is located?

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