What you'll pay

Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

COMFORT PACK (includes bed linen and 4 towels (incl. beach towel) per person, coffee pack (50 capsules), dinghy / outboard engine 5 HP, WiFi pack 50 GB, basic bathroom amenities, final cleaning)

Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.

€420 per rental mandatory

Tourist tax (per pax/week)

Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).

€1.33 per person per night mandatory

Refundable security deposit

Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

Ideal for couples and small groups Zephyrus suits families or friends seeking a comfortable, well-equipped 50-footer without breaking the bank. The three cabins sleep six, making it perfect for two couples or a small family wanting proper privacy rather than tight quarters.

Seriously well-appointed This 2019 Dufour punches above its weight with creature comforts: air conditioning, heating, dishwasher, electric winches, and even underwater lights for evening swims. The bow thruster and autopilot mean less physical demand on longer passages, while the teak deck and sprayhood add genuine luxury touches.

Strong value proposition At €5,120 per week, you're getting a newer boat with excellent systems and full galley kit—typically what you'd expect from a higher-end charter. The 5-star rating from Under the Heavens Sailing (though only 4 reviews) suggests reliable service and well-maintained equipment.

One practical note The charter base location isn't listed here, so check airport access and flight connections carefully before booking. Depending on where Zephyrus is based, your international arrival could mean a quick transfer or a longer drive—worth confirming with the operator upfront.

Splitska 22-24

Can ZEPHYRUS be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter ZEPHYRUS 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 ZEPHYRUS?

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.
