SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for smaller groups. At 11.4m, the Bavaria Cruiser 37 is an ideal mid-sized cruiser for couples or small families wanting genuine sailing without the complexity of larger vessels. Three cabins sleep up to eight, though comfort peaks with four to six aboard.

Well-equipped and practical. The 2018 build includes solid cruising essentials: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot for longer passages, chart plotter in the cockpit, and a proper teak cockpit for evening drinks. The sprayhood and dinghy round out a sensible spec that works across Mediterranean and Atlantic routes.

Excellent value proposition. At around €1,966 per week with just a €2,000 deposit, this Bavaria delivers genuine capability and comfort without premium pricing. For transatlantic clients, this price point makes a proper sailing holiday genuinely accessible compared to larger or newer vessels.

One practical note: We'd want to confirm the charter base location with Albatros Yachting—that detail is missing from your specs. Knowing whether it's Croatia, Greece, Spain, or elsewhere matters significantly for your long-haul travel planning and flight connections from the US or UK.

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