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.

MAIN SAIL 2022, GENOA 2021

Ideal for families This 2016 Bavaria Cruiser 46 suits families or groups of up to 9 who want comfortable, fuss-free sailing without breaking the bank. The four cabins and solid build quality make it a reliable platform for a week-long cruise in most European sailing destinations.

Well-equipped vessel Alexandra comes with genuinely useful kit, bow thruster for easy mooring, sprayhood and bimini for weather protection, autopilot to ease the workload, and a dinghy included. These extras suggest the owner understands what makes cruising enjoyable rather than just tolerable.

Honest value assessment At this size and age with a full cabin layout, pricing sits in the mid-range for Bavaria's market segment. The €2,300 deposit is reasonable, though you'll want to confirm the base location and weekly rate before committing, that data isn't shown here.

One heads-up With only 2 operator reviews on record, Smart Sail is relatively new or low-volume on SailChecker's radar. Check independent feedback elsewhere and confirm support availability, especially if you're flying in long-haul and need responsive local assistance during your charter.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Novi, in Novi Vinodolski, Croatia. Alexandra is operated by Smart Sail.

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Novi sits on Croatia's central Adriatic coast and works well as a base for exploring the Dalmatian islands and channels within a week's sailing. From here you can reach the popular islands of Hvar, Vis, and Korcula heading south, or cruise north toward Rijeka and the Kvarner islands, with consistent northwesterly boras making these passages straightforward. The sheltered waters and numerous anchorages in this region suit both confident and moderate sailors, and you'll find good provisioning in Novi itself.

Can Alexandra be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Alexandra 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 Alexandra?

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.
