What you'll pay

NEW main sail & genoa 2024, bimini & sprayhood 2025, with SOLAR PANELS

Perfect for families This 51-footer suits groups or multi-family charters who want comfortable cruising without sacrificing space, five cabins sleep 11, so there's room for everyone. The teak cockpit and quality cushions make hanging out on deck genuinely pleasant for longer passages.

Smart practical kit Solar panels, bow thruster, and autopilot tick all the right boxes for relaxed sailing, while the sprayhood and bimini keep you protected in less-than-perfect weather. The chart plotter in the cockpit is handy, and heating means shoulder-season cruising isn't miserable.

Honest value trade-off At 2017 build with solid equipment, this represents fair value for a five-cabin boat, Waypoint's 4.7 rating is reassuring. That said, a 51-footer this full can feel snug if all berths are occupied; verify cabin sizes before committing a large party.

One caveat worth noting The base location isn't listed in your details, so I can't advise on airport connections or whether you're looking at a quick hop or longer international flight to reach the boat. Drop that info and we can give you the full logistical picture.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Trogir, in Trogir, Croatia. Summer Smile is operated by Waypoint.

Put Cumbrijana 22

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Trogir sits within the medieval walled town, offering immediate access to the central Dalmatian islands; week one typically involves sailing south to Hvar and Vis, or north toward the Pakleni Islands, with reliable northwesterly winds favouring both directions. The shallow, protected waters around the Trogir archipelago suit confidence-building, and the marina's central location on the Adriatic coast puts Kornati National Park (a full day's sail northeast) within realistic reach for week two. Trogir's old town provides good provisioning and is walkable from the boat, making it an efficient turnaround point if clients are new to the region.

Can Summer Smile be rented with or without a skipper?

Summer Smile can be chartered both bareboat (without skipper) or with a professional skipper. If you're bareboat chartering, you'll need to demonstrate relevant sailing experience; adding a skipper is ideal if your group prefers local expertise or wants to relax more during your Croatian sailing holiday.

What sailing licence do I need to charter Summer Smile?

For bareboat charter of Summer Smile, at least one person on board must hold a valid sailing qualification recognised internationally (such as RYA Day Skipper or equivalent). Waypoint will confirm acceptable credentials when you book; if you lack certification, hiring a skipper removes this requirement.

What's included in the charter price?

The charter price typically includes Summer Smile's hull, sails, engine, bedding, and basic equipment. Specifics vary by season and package, so confirm with Waypoint whether provisioning, final cleaning, and water/fuel are included or charged separately.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Plan for fuel, provisioning (groceries), mooring fees, transit log, and any optional services like a skipper or flotilla guide. Waypoint will provide a detailed cost breakdown when you enquire, so you know exactly what's extra before arrival at the Croatian base.

How does the security deposit work for Summer Smile?

The refundable security deposit for Summer Smile is €2,500, typically charged to your card at booking or check-in. It's released after your charter ends and the yacht is inspected for damage; minor wear is normal, but any significant damage may be claimed against the deposit.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms depend on your booking conditions with Waypoint, most operators offer tiered refunds based on how far in advance you cancel. Contact Waypoint directly to understand Summer Smile's specific policy and any travel insurance options that might protect your investment.

Is Summer Smile insured?

Summer Smile carries standard yacht insurance through Waypoint, covering third-party liability and hull damage. Your security deposit acts as a deductible; review the charter agreement for exclusions and confirm whether additional personal or crew insurance is recommended for your peace of mind.

What documents do I need to bring?

Bring a valid passport, sailing qualifications (RYA certificate or equivalent), travel insurance details, and any medical information. EU citizens need ID or passport for Croatia; non-EU visitors should verify current entry requirements, and Waypoint will send a pre-charter checklist with everything else.

What payment methods are accepted?

Waypoint typically accepts bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and online payment systems for charter bookings and deposits. Confirm payment options when you enquire, especially if paying from outside the EU, bank transfers are often the most straightforward for international clients.
