Splash (Dufour 530 A/C & GEN)

Perfect for larger groups With 6 cabins and 12 berths, Splash is ideal for extended families or friend groups wanting to charter together without splitting costs across multiple boats. The 2023 build means you're getting a modern, well-maintained vessel with the latest technology.

Seriously well-equipped This boat has thought of nearly everything: lazy jacks and bag for easy sail handling, a generator and inverter for creature comforts, bow thruster for tight anchorages, and even solar panels to keep things sustainable. Snorkeling gear, dinghy, and a cockpit barbecue mean you'll rarely need to leave the boat for entertainment or meals.

Excellent value proposition A €0 deposit is genuinely unusual and generous, it removes friction from booking and shows Istion Yachting's confidence in their fleet. Combined with a perfect 5/5 operator rating across 12 reviews, you're looking at a reputable outfit that backs their boats.

One practical note The charter base location isn't listed here, so before committing, confirm airport proximity and transfer logistics from your home airport, critical when flying long-haul with a large group. Once you know the base, cross-reference flight connections and ground transport time to make sure the logistics suit your crew.
