SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families The Bavaria Cruiser 46 suits couples or families wanting comfortable, easy-sailing holidays without breaking the bank. Four cabins sleep up to nine, so it's ideal if you're bringing kids or sharing costs with friends.

Well-equipped modern cruiser This 2018 boat has the essentials done right: solar panels keep batteries topped up, a bow thruster makes tight anchorages effortless, and the cockpit chart plotter takes guesswork out of navigation. The bimini and sprayhood mean you'll actually enjoy time on deck in varying weather.

Excellent value proposition At €2,378 per week with only a €2,000 deposit, this is genuinely affordable for a 46-footer that's less than seven years old. You're getting a modern, mid-sized cruiser at rates that undercut comparable competitors—especially impressive given the solid five-star rating from Adventure Charter.

Limited review history The operator only has two reviews on record, so you're taking a small leap of faith here. Before booking, it's worth contacting them directly to ask about their base location, how they handle international arrivals, and what's included in the weekly rate—fuel, provisioning, transfers from the airport are all worth clarifying upfront.

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