Solid Family Choice The Bavaria Cruiser 46 is built for mixed-ability crews who want comfort without complexity, think families or groups of friends who'd rather relax than wrestle with technical systems. With four cabins, 10 berths, and relatively modern 2023 build, it'll sleep everyone without cramping and won't need constant tinkering.

Smart Cruising Gear You get the essentials that actually matter: autopilot for tired arms, bow thruster for tight anchorages, a proper swimming platform, and solar panels to extend your battery life on longer passages. The sprayhood and bimini mean you're protected from weather without surrendering deck space, and the refrigerator keeps food and drinks cold, practical stuff rather than showboat extras.

Fair Value Proposition At 14.3 metres with modern systems and a 2023 build year, this is decent value for a bareboat charter, especially if you've got a solid group splitting costs. The €3,700 deposit is reasonable for a boat this size, which keeps your upfront commitment manageable.

One Real Caveat The Bavaria Cruiser 46 is honest rather than exciting, it's a solid workhorse rather than a nimble day sailor, so if you're chasing thrills in tight, technical waters, you might find it a touch heavy and forgiving. Check your charter base location with the operator, as the data doesn't specify where you'll be departing from.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kos, in Kos, Greece. S/Y Semeli is operated by Kekeris Yachts.

G. Papandreou Str

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.

Can S/Y Semeli be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter S/Y Semeli 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 S/Y Semeli?

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.
