Built for families The Dufour 512 is a spacious cruiser with four cabins sleeping up to 10, making it ideal for multi-generational groups or friends wanting their own space. That generous layout is backed by solid 2017 build quality from a trusted European manufacturer.

Smart comfort features Electric winches and a bow thruster take the grunt work out of sailing, while the sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded in the Mediterranean heat. Autopilot and chart plotter are standard kit, so navigation is straightforward for mixed-ability crews.

Keen pricing At this capacity and spec, Jana represents decent value, you're getting a modern, well-equipped boat with European-standard maintenance. The €4,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests fair all-in rates from Sardinia Yachting.

One practical note Sardinia is genuinely accessible for transatlantic and European fliers (direct flights from most major hubs), but with 10 potential berths you'll want to confirm exact positioning at the base, coordinate arrival transfers in advance so your group doesn't face a logistical puzzle on day one.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina dell'Isola, in Golfo Aranci, Italy. Jana is operated by Sardinia Yachting.

Via S'isuledda 13

Why this is a great starting point

Marina dell'Isola in Golfo Aranci sits on Sardinia's northeast coast, offering straightforward access to the Maddalena Archipelago and Costa Smeralda within a day's sail. From here you can work south along the Emerald Coast towards Porto Cervo and Palau, or north to the islands of Corsica; week one typically covers protected anchorages in granite coves with consistent northwesterly winds. The marina provides good facilities and a sheltered base to explore one of the Mediterranean's most dramatic granite coastlines without committing to longer passages.

Can Jana be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Jana 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 Jana?

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.
