SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This Bavaria Cruiser 51 is ideal if you're chartering with family or friends, five cabins sleep up to 11, so you can spread out comfortably without feeling cramped. The 2016 build means it's well-maintained and modern enough to feel current.

Solid sailing platform The Bavaria Cruiser range is known for being forgiving, seaworthy vessels that handle well in varied conditions. At 15 metres, it's large enough to feel spacious but manageable for mixed-experience crews without feeling like you're crewing an ocean liner.

Reasonable value proposition A €3,500 deposit is modest, which suggests competitive weekly rates, good news if you're flying internationally to reach the charter base. However, I'd want to confirm the base location, as that dramatically affects your travel time from major airports and what sailing grounds you'll actually access.

One practical note The listing doesn't specify whether the operator is English-speaking or details exactly what's included in equipment, so I'd recommend contacting GreenBoat directly before booking to clarify setup, briefing language, and whether essentials like fuel, provisioning, or skipper hire are available.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Portorosa, in Furnari, Italy. Six is operated by GreenBoat.

Via Prestipaolo 7

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Portorosa sits on Sicily's north coast and offers immediate access to the Aeolian Islands, all reachable within a day's sail. Week 1 typically takes you through Lipari, Vulcano, and Salina, with consistent northwesterly winds making the return journey straightforward. The shallow, protected waters around the archipelago suit various boat sizes, and you can easily explore volcanic anchorages and small harbours before heading further east towards Messina Strait or west to Cefalù.

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