Great family choice. The Dufour 470 is a modern, well-equipped cruiser built for comfort over performance, making it ideal for families or mixed-ability groups wanting to relax rather than race. With 5 cabins and 11 berths, you'll sleep everyone without cramming.

Smart kit included. The bow thruster, autopilot, and lazy bag system take real strain out of sailing and anchoring—genuinely useful in tight anchorages or when energy levels dip. A 2023 build means everything is current and reliable, and little extras like cockpit cushions and a bimini make time on deck genuinely pleasant.

Solid value proposition. The €600 deposit is refreshingly modest, and a well-specced Dufour 470 at Lascatutto rates competitively for a newer yacht of this size and cabin count in the Mediterranean. You're getting a turnkey holiday boat with no surprises.

One honest note: The outboard engine is functional but noisier and less powerful than an inboard—fine for maneuvering and crossing gaps, but don't expect zipping between islands. If engine hours matter to you, check the service history before booking.

The marina & destination

Based at La Cala (Porto Palermo), in Palermo, Italy. M'Arricrio is operated by Lascatutto.

Can M'Arricrio be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter M'Arricrio 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 M'Arricrio?

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.
