SailChecker Expert View

Who it suits This 43-footer works brilliantly for larger groups or families wanting to explore Belize's cays and reef systems without breaking the bank. At €2,083/week, it's genuinely competitive pricing for a six-cabin catamaran that sleeps 10.

Standout features The catamaran design gives you stability and space, crucial when you're anchored off remote islands for days. Six separate cabins mean everyone gets privacy, and the autopilot plus chart plotter make navigation straightforward, even if your group includes less experienced sailors.

Value for money For the charter price and what you're getting (decent cruising cat, full cabin complement, essentials like bimini and radio), this represents solid value in the Caribbean. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable and protects both sides fairly.

One honest note The operator has only three reviews at 4.3/5, so there's limited track record to lean on, nothing alarming, but worth asking AF Yachting directly about recent guest feedback and their support response times, especially if you're coordinating a large group arrival from Europe or North America.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. AF-B43 is operated by AF Yachting.

East Shore

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.

Frequently asked questions
Can AF-B43 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter AF-B43 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 AF-B43?
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.
