SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for larger groups The Dufour 560 with 6 cabins and 12 berths is a genuinely spacious option if you're chartering with extended family or friends—rare to find this much sleeping capacity on a 17-meter sailing yacht. It's built for comfort over pure performance, so expect a relaxed vibe rather than a racing machine.

Well-equipped modern cruiser Solar panels, inverter, air conditioning, and a teak cockpit signal this 2020-built yacht won't leave you roughing it; the sprayhood and lazy jack make everyday sailing easier too. These creature comforts matter on longer passages when you've got a full boat to manage.

Strong value proposition At a modest €3,000 deposit with GA Holidays (a 5-star rated operator), this feels competitively priced for a newer, well-appointed six-cabin vessel—especially if you're splitting costs across 8–12 people from abroad.

One realistic note: The operator listing shows minimal reviews (just one), so while the 5-star rating is positive, there's limited track record to assess consistency or responsiveness to charter support. I'd recommend contacting GA Holidays directly to confirm their base location, cancellation terms, and crew experience before committing.

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