SailChecker Expert View

Great family cruiser The Bavaria Cruiser 46 suits families and groups wanting comfortable, modern sailing without fussy maintenance — four cabins sleep nine with decent comfort, and the 2022 build means everything works reliably. She's a straightforward boat to handle, so both experienced sailors and confident intermediates will enjoy her.

Solid spec onboard Solar panels and a bow thruster are genuinely useful for week-long cruising, while the autopilot takes fatigue out of longer passages. Bimini and sprayhood keep the cockpit pleasant in sun and spray, and the chart plotter removes navigation guesswork — practical touches that add real comfort.

Reasonable value proposition A 2022 boat with four berths in this size bracket typically holds its asking price well; the zero deposit is a pleasant surprise and reduces upfront friction. Without seeing the weekly rate, I can't comment fully, but Bavaria's build reputation means you're not gambling on hidden costs.

One honest note At 14.5 metres, you're still carrying a decent amount of boat solo or with a small crew — the bow thruster helps enormously, but a group of four or more sharing watch-keeping will make life considerably easier, particularly if anyone's new to sailing.

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