SailChecker Expert View

Ideal For Groups Captain Leo suits larger groups or families wanting serious sailing comfort without cramping quarters. With 6 cabins and 12 berths spread across 17.1 metres, everyone gets reasonable privacy on a proper cruising yacht rather than a packed sardine tin.

Standout Features The Dufour 560 is a proven, well-equipped platform with genuinely useful kit—bow thruster for tight anchorages, solar panels to ease generator running, hydraulic gangway for easy boarding, and a teak cockpit that handles extended time on deck. The 2016 build age is solid middle ground: modern enough for reliability, established enough that any quirks are known.

Value Assessment At €600 deposit with ARCHON's perfect 5-star rating, this represents honest value for a larger sailing vessel. You're paying for capacity and comfort rather than flashy extras, which suits groups splitting costs across multiple cabins.

Fair Caveat With 12 potential berths, galley workflow and freshwater consumption become real considerations on longer charters—confirm provisioning routines and tank capacity with ARCHON before booking, especially if your group is active cooks.

Frequently asked questions
Can Captain Leo be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Captain Leo 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 Captain Leo?
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.
