Ideal for families This 2022 Bavaria Cruiser 46 suits families or small groups after a comfortable, modern sailing experience without too much fuss. Four cabins sleep up to nine, which works well if you're mixing couples and kids or want a bit of extra space.

Well-equipped cruiser You're getting a relatively new boat with genuinely useful kit, air con, bow thruster for tight anchorages, solar panels, and a generator mean you won't be roughing it. The cockpit chart plotter takes the guesswork out of navigation, which matters when you're chartering in unfamiliar waters.

Solid value proposition At this size and age with four cabins, the €2,500 deposit suggests competitive weekly rates through LG Yachting. You're paying for comfort and reliability rather than luxury, which is honest positioning for a modern production cruiser.

One practical note The charter base location isn't listed here, so check with LG Yachting where "Sail la Vie" is berthed, that'll determine your flight connections and whether transfers are straightforward from your nearest international hub.

The marina & destination

Based at Kavala, in Kavala, Greece. Sail la Vie is operated by LG Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

Kavala's marina sits in northern Greece with straightforward access to the Sporades islands; week one typically involves sailing south to Skiathos, Skopelos, and Alonissos, with steady northerly winds making for reliable beam reaches. The protected waters around these islands suit mixed ability crews, and you can anchor in numerous quiet bays before returning to base or pushing further toward the Pelion coast. Note that July and August winds can be strong, so spring and autumn offer more forgiving conditions for exploring this less-crowded corner of the Aegean.

Can Sail la Vie be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Sail la Vie 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 Sail la Vie?

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.
