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)

Standing Paddle board
Included mandatory
Tourist tax (per pax/week)
Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).
€1.33 per person per night mandatory
COMFORT PACK (includes bed linen and 4 towels (incl. beach towel) per person, coffee pack (50 capsules), dinghy / outboard engine 20 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.
€650 per rental 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.
€3,000 refundable mandatory

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This 2020 Dufour 48 catamaran sleeps 12 across six cabins, making it ideal for larger families or friends wanting to split costs on a proper sailing holiday. With a 5/5 operator rating, you're chartering from a trustworthy broker who clearly knows how to maintain their fleet.

Well-equipped vessel The yacht comes loaded with creature comforts—air conditioning, heating, dishwasher, underwater lights, and hydraulic gangway for easy boarding. Dual refrigerators, an ice maker, and generator mean you won't be roughing it, while the teak deck and bimini give that premium catamaran feel. Navigation kit includes radar, autopilot, and chart plotter, so even less experienced sailors can feel confident.

Solid value proposition At €5,760 per week with a modest €3,000 deposit, this works out to roughly €480 per person for a 12-berth charter—genuinely competitive for a modern, well-appointed catamaran in 2020 condition. The operator's perfect rating suggests you'll get what you're paying for without hidden hassles.

One fair note The charter base location isn't specified in the listing, which is unusual—you'll need to contact Under the Heavens Sailing directly to confirm where you'll actually pick up the boat and factor in airport transfers from your international arrival point.

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