SailChecker Expert View

A solid family cruiser. Tintaro is a well-established Catalina 42—a proven design that handles both coastal cruising and light offshore work. With 4 cabins sleeping 8, she's ideal for families or small groups wanting comfortable weeklong adventures without premium pricing.

Practical standout features. The autopilot and lazy jack system make single-handed sailing or relaxed crew handling genuinely easier, while a working refrigerator and dinghy are essentials often missing from boats at this price point. She's honestly equipped for real cruising rather than just looking pretty.

Good value for 2001. At 23 years old, Tintaro punches above her weight—the Catalina 42 remains respected for solid construction and decent resale appeal. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable, suggesting fair overall charter rates for a four-cabin yacht on the European market.

One practical note: We don't have the exact base location listed here, so do confirm airport proximity and transfer time before booking—if she's berthed far from a major hub, that adds friction to your journey from the UK or US. Once you're aboard, though, she's a reliable, comfortable vessel.

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