SailChecker Expert View
Well-suited for families and small groups wanting a comfortable, manageable sailing platform without breaking the bank. The 14.3m Bavaria is a proven workhorse that's easy to handle, perfect if you've got some sailing experience but aren't after a mega-yacht.
Standout features include the gennaker for downwind performance and a proper sprayhood to keep the cockpit dry in chop. The electric toilet and modern chart plotter mean you get genuine convenience without sacrificing the sailing experience, and four cabins give good privacy for nine people.
Excellent value at €4,455 per week, you're looking at one of the better-priced 4-cabin options in this size range. A modest €2,500 deposit keeps entry costs reasonable, and the 5-star operator rating (though admittedly from just three reviews) is a solid sign of reliable service.
One heads-up: the listing doesn't mention the base location, so you'll want to confirm where Sail Along operates, transatlantic flyers especially need to know flight times and airport logistics before committing. Once you've pinned that down, this is a genuinely sensible choice for a summer sailing holiday.

The marina & destination
Based at Ponta Delgada, in Ponta Delgada, Portugal. Jochi is operated by Sail Along.
Ponta Delgada marina, located on São Miguel in the Azores, puts you within striking distance of Portugal's most remote and dramatic cruising grounds. Week 1 typically involves exploring the nearby islands of Santa Maria and São Jorge, with reliable northeast trade winds providing consistent sailing; the volcanic anchorages and steep-sided bays offer shelter and dramatic scenery unavailable elsewhere in European waters. The 600-nautical-mile isolation from mainland Portugal means fewer charter boats and well-developed provisioning in the city itself, though passages between islands demand respect for Atlantic swells and weather windows.
