What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
10 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Perfect for families The Dufour 460 Grand Large is an excellent choice for groups wanting genuine sailing comfort without overcrowding. With four cabins and a proven 2016 build, you'll have proper private space for up to 10 people, ideal if you're bringing kids or splitting costs among friends.
Standout practical features This boat is well-equipped for relaxed cruising: the bow thruster makes tight harbour work effortless, Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected between anchorages, and the cockpit cushions with bimini mean you can actually enjoy your time on deck without fighting the sun. The barbecue grill is a genuine bonus for evening entertainment.
Solid value proposition At €2,165 per week, you're looking at roughly £180, 200 per person for a fully equipped four-cabin sailing yacht, that's genuinely competitive, especially if your group is splitting the cost. NCP-Charter's 4.3-star rating on limited reviews suggests reliable service, though the small review count means you should ask direct questions before committing.
One honest note We don't have the base location listed, so you'll need to confirm where you're sailing from and factor in your international flight logistics, charter bases vary widely in how convenient they are from major European airports. Once you've got that detail, reach out to NCP-Charter directly to confirm current availability and any seasonal pricing.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.
