What you'll pay

Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

Outboard engine ( included in price)
Included mandatory
Charter pack (end cleaning, bed linen, towels, starter kit, outboard fuel 5l, 2 bottles of gas, transit log)
Bang on the Croatia average (€200–€350 typical for boats this size).
€325 per rental mandatory
Tourist tax per pax
Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).
€1.33 per night mandatory
Charter pack multi weeks (end cleaning, bed linen, towels, starter kit, outboard fuel 5l, 2 bottles of gas, transit log)
Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.
€425 per rental mandatory
Refundable security deposit
Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
€1,800 refundable mandatory

About this yacht
NEW main sail 2024, genoa 2025, BIMINI & SPRAYHOOD 2026, with SOLAR PANELS
SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for relaxed cruising. This 41-footer suits small groups or families who want comfortable sailing without high-performance racing, the three cabins sleep seven, making it perfect for a couple of friends or multigenerational crews who don't mind cozy quarters.

Smart practical touches. The bow thruster, autopilot, and electric toilet remove common hassles, while solar panels and heating mean you're not draining the engine or struggling in cooler months, genuinely useful kit that makes coastal cruising less stressful. The bimini and sprayhood are essential for Mediterranean or Atlantic routes.

Reasonable value proposition. A 2017 Bavaria Cruiser 41 at this spec level sits in the fair-pricing zone; you're getting a well-maintained boat with modern electronics rather than paying premium rates for a boutique yacht or charter operator.

One practical note: Waypoint's operator rating is solid (4.7/5), but with only three reviews on file, gather a bit more intel, ask about their handover process, support availability during your charter, and whether English-speaking staff are available at base, especially if you're flying in from the US or Northern Europe and want smooth check-in without language friction.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Trogir, in Trogir, Croatia. Dolce vita is operated by Waypoint.

Put Cumbrijana 22

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Trogir sits within the medieval walled town, offering immediate access to the central Dalmatian islands; week one typically involves sailing south to Hvar and Vis, or north toward the Pakleni Islands, with reliable northwesterly winds favouring both directions. The shallow, protected waters around the Trogir archipelago suit confidence-building, and the marina's central location on the Adriatic coast puts Kornati National Park (a full day's sail northeast) within realistic reach for week two. Trogir's old town provides good provisioning and is walkable from the boat, making it an efficient turnaround point if clients are new to the region.
