Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Ideal for families The Dufour 390 "Yaya" suits families or small groups wanting comfortable, modern cruising without sacrificing ease of handling. With three cabins sleeping six and a 2023 build, you get contemporary comfort and reliability on a manageable size.
Standout features The teak deck and cockpit feel special, and the electric winches plus hydraulic gangway take real effort out of sailing, great if you want a relaxed pace rather than athletic sailing. You've also got solid cruising kit: chart plotter, electric toilet, and a swim platform for Mediterranean breaks.
Honest value question At this spec and age, pricing depends entirely on your charter dates and base location, but Sardinia is a popular, scenic destination that justifies reasonable rates. The equipment list is genuinely well-chosen for comfort-focused sailing.
Watch the operator rating The 3.3/5 score from 19 reviews is a yellow flag worth investigating before booking, ask the operator directly about specific feedback and what they've improved since those reviews. Spending time checking recent client comments could save you headaches once you arrive.

Based at Marina di Portisco, in Portisco, Italy. Yaya is operated by Yachting in Sardinia.
Str. Panoramica Costa Smeralda Km0,100
Marina di Portisco sits on Sardinia's northeast coast and provides excellent access to the Maddalena archipelago, reachable in 15-20 nautical miles on a typical northwesterly breeze. Week 1 charters work well as sheltered day hops between granite-studded islands with good holding in sandy bays, or longer passages south to the Costa Smeralda if conditions favour. The marina itself offers full facilities and lies close enough to Porto Cervo for provisioning, making it a practical base for both relaxed cruising and more ambitious sailing.
