Perfect for larger groups. With 6 cabins and 13 berths, Saro is ideal if you're bringing family or friends, you won't feel cramped, and the convertible table means flexible dining. This is a genuine crew boat, not a couple's getaway.

Well-equipped modern cruiser. The 2023 Dufour 530 comes loaded: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot to ease long passages, air conditioning (a real comfort in Mediterranean heat), and a generator so you're not living rough. Lazy bag and lazy jacks make sail handling genuinely easier with a bigger group who may be less experienced.

Reasonable value proposition. At €600 deposit, the entry cost is modest, though you'll want to confirm the weekly charter rate with Lascatutto, as that will determine true value. For a modern, well-appointed 16-metre with this cabin count, it's competitive if the daily rate is fair.

One honest note: We don't have the charter base location listed here, so you'll need to check sailing distance from your nearest major airport, European bases vary wildly in access. That said, if Lascatutto is established and English-speaking, logistics shouldn't be a headache for international clients.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina di Procida, in Procida, Italy. Saro is operated by Lascatutto.

Via Roma 1

Why this is a great starting point

Marina di Procida sits on the northern coast of the island and offers straightforward access to the Bay of Naples cruising grounds; week one typically covers the Phlegraean Islands (Vivara, Procida's neighbour) and runs south to Ischia or Capri, all within 15-25 nautical miles. The marina works well for crews wanting gentle starts because the Tyrrhenian winds funnel predictably through the bay, and you can reach sheltered anchorages and small fishing villages without long offshore passages. From here you can also push further south towards the Amalfi Coast if conditions allow, giving flexibility for different ability levels.

Can Saro be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Saro 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 Saro?

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.
