Solid Family Choice The Dufour 455 is a proven cruiser that suits families or groups of four couples wanting comfortable, hassle-free sailing. With 10 berths across four cabins, you've got genuine sleeping space without anyone bunking in saloon bunks—that matters on a week-long charter.

Standout Upgrades The 2025 refit is genuinely thoughtful: a new engine means reliability, and solar panels paired with an inverter give you real electrical independence for longer anchorages. The bow thruster and teak cockpit round out a yacht that balances practicality with a touch of class.

Fair Value Proposition You're looking at a well-maintained, well-equipped 15-year-old design with modern systems added—sensible money for what you get. The €1,500 deposit is reasonable, and Adriatic Sailing TO's perfect rating (albeit from just 2 reviews) suggests competent, responsive service.

One Real Note At 13.8m and fairly full below decks, this boat can feel cosy rather than spacious when all cabins are occupied—fine for a relaxed group, tighter if anyone values personal space. Charter from the Adriatic is straightforward for UK and US clients, though you'll want to confirm exact base location and airport transfer logistics once you contact the operator.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Zenta, in Split, Croatia. Hauraki (refit: 2025, new engine and solar panels) is operated by Adriatic Sailing TO.

Cvjetna ulica 1

Can Hauraki (refit: 2025, new engine and solar panels) be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Hauraki (refit: 2025, new engine and solar panels) 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 Hauraki (refit: 2025, new engine and solar panels)?

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.
