Who it suits This Bavaria 40 is ideal for families or small groups wanting comfortable coastal cruising without breaking the bank. At 12 metres with three cabins sleeping eight, you've got genuine space to avoid feeling cramped on a week-long charter.

Standout features The autopilot and chart plotter are real time-savers for relaxed sailing, while the bimini keeps you shaded in Mediterranean heat. A dinghy and fridge round out the essentials for proper cruising comfort—no roughing it here.

Value for money As a 2010 model, you're getting proven, mid-range cruising kit at a reasonable price point. The €3,750 deposit is modest, suggesting overall charter rates should sit comfortably in the accessible bracket.

Honest note on age At 14 years old, this yacht isn't brand new, so factor in potential maintenance quirks. Before booking, confirm the engine hours and ask the operator directly about recent servicing—it's the smart move with older boats.

The marina & destination

Based at Port du Crouesty, in Arzon, France. Arloup is operated by Crouesty Location.

Quai des Voiliers

Can Arloup be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Arloup 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 Arloup?

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.
