SailChecker Expert View

Solid family choice. The Dufour 365 is a proven cruiser that handles three cabins and six berths without feeling cramped, making it ideal for families or small groups splitting costs. Built in 2006, it's a reliable workhorse with a solid track record in the Mediterranean.

Practical, no-fuss setup. You get the essentials that matter: autopilot for longer passages, chart plotter for navigation, a bimini for Mediterranean sun, and a dinghy to explore anchorages. The holding tank is always welcome on a bareboat. Nothing flashy, but everything functional.

Fair value proposition. At this age and size, the price point is competitive for Malta—a convenient base for Adriatic and Central Med routes. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable, and three cabins sharing the cost works out well per person on a week's charter.

One realistic note: A 2006 boat means older systems and interiors compared to newer Dufours; you may encounter minor wear or occasional niggles with electronics. That said, if the operator maintains it properly, it'll get you where you need to go without drama. Worth a pre-booking check on recent guest reviews.

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