SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for families This 2018 Bavaria Cruiser 46 works beautifully for a family of four to six seeking a well-equipped, comfortable sailing experience without breaking the bank. The four cabins sleep up to nine, so you've got flexibility whether you're traveling with extended family or splitting costs with friends.

Standout practical features You're getting some genuinely useful kit here, solar panels mean decent power independence, Wi-Fi keeps you connected, and the bow thruster takes the stress out of tight anchorages. The teak cockpit and bimini are nice touches for Mediterranean cruising, and a proper dinghy is included, which many operators charge extra for.

Strong value proposition At €3,135 per week with a modest €2,000 deposit, this Bavaria sits in the sweet spot for mid-range family charters. You're paying for a solid, mid-sized boat from a reputable builder with genuinely useful onboard systems, not stripped-down basics, not luxury pricing.

One honest note The base location isn't listed in your data, so I can't advise on flight connections or transfer times from your nearest international airport. Confirm the charter location with Helios Stratos, that detail matters significantly for a long-haul trip.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kremik, in Primošten, Croatia. YABADU is operated by Helios Stratos.

Splitska 22-24

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kremik in Primošten sits on the central Dalmatian coast, putting you within easy reach of the Dalmatian Islands for your first week. From here you can sail south to Brač and Hvar (4-6 hours), or north to Šibenik and the Kornati archipelago (3-4 hours), giving you flexible options depending on wind conditions. The shallow, sheltered waters and island-hopping routes make this a good base for building confidence before venturing further, with steady northwesterly breezes typical for summer cruising.

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