COMFORT A\C, Generator, Bow thruster, Inverter BBQ

Perfect for families Emma is a well-equipped 2022 Dufour 470 that suits groups or families wanting a modern, comfortable sailing experience without constant hands-on work. The four cabins sleep up to nine, making it ideal for mixing couples and kids.

Strong setup overall Electric winches and autopilot take the physical strain out of sailing, while the sprayhood and bimini keep everyone comfortable in variable weather. The lazy bag (boom bag) is a nice touch for easier mainsail handling, and the dinghy opens up anchorages and beach stops beyond the charter base.

Good value proposition At just two years old with modern comfort kit, this boat hits a sweet spot between accessibility and genuine sailing capability, you're not paying for luxury extras you won't use, but you get reliable systems that work. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable for this size and specification.

One practical note The base location isn't listed in your details, so I can't advise on airport transfer time or flight connections, worth confirming with World Wide Charter directly, especially if you're transiting from a major European hub. That said, their 4.8 rating across reviews suggests reliable, well-managed operations.

Str. Panoramica Costa Smeralda Km0,100

Can Emma be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Emma 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 Emma?

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.
