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.
Solid mid-size cruiser The Bavaria Cruiser 45 is a well-established platform that suits families or small groups wanting comfortable bareboat sailing without excessive complexity. At 14.3 metres with four cabins sleeping eight, you've got genuine living space rather than bunks crammed together.
Practical highlights The bow thruster and autopilot take real pressure off docking and longer passages, while solar panels are genuinely useful for extending battery life between engine charges. You get a proper dinghy included, which matters if your charter base isn't bang in the sailing grounds, helpful for exploring anchorages without motoring everywhere.
Fair pricing proposition At €2,750 deposit, this boat sits in the realistic mid-range for a 45-footer. Sailfleet's 4.6-star rating across five reviews suggests consistent, reliable service, though the sample size is small enough that one bad experience could shift that number noticeably.
Age consideration Built in 2011, she's now 13 years old, not ancient for a well-maintained Bavaria, but not brand-new either. Factor in a pre-charter survey and confirm the engine hours and gel-coat condition directly with Sailfleet before booking; older boats reward due diligence.

Based at Ece Marina, in Fethiye, Turkey. Sail Bravo is operated by Sailfleet.
Karagözler, Fevzi Cakmak Cd.
Ece Marina sits in Fethiye's well-protected bay on Turkey's southwest coast, making it ideal for week 1 exploration of the Lycian coast's pine-backed anchorages and island-hopping grounds. Light northwesterly winds typically allow you to reach the Red Island group, Oludeniz lagoon, and the Ekincik river delta within easy day-sail distances; the sheltered bays here offer good holding and few other boats early in the season. The marina itself provides reliable facilities and a straightforward departure point before venturing further east toward Gocek or west toward Dalyan.
