SailChecker Expert View

Perfect starter choice The Elan Impression 344 is ideal for families or small groups wanting a manageable, forgiving sailing platform without breaking the bank. At 11.4 metres, she's easy to handle yet roomy enough for a comfortable week afloat with three cabins sleeping up to seven.

Smart practical features The essentials are well covered: autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, a chart plotter keeps navigation straightforward, and the sprayhood plus bimini make lounging on deck genuinely pleasant in variable weather. The inclusion of a dinghy means you're not marooned if anchoring in quieter spots.

Genuinely good value At around €1330 per week with a modest €1500 deposit, this yacht delivers respectable bang for your euro, especially if you're chartering from abroad and factoring in long-haul flights to reach the base. You're getting proven, mid-range equipment without premium pricing.

Age worth noting She's 18 years old now, so while the Elan brand builds solid boats, expect honest wear and the occasional quirk typical of a boat her age. Nothing unusual for a charter yacht, but worth confirming exact maintenance history with Marina & Yachting before booking.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Betina, in Murter, Croatia. Amazone is operated by Marina & Yachting.

Ul. Prvoborca Nikole Škevina 15

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Betina sits on Murter island in central Dalmatia, offering straightforward access to the Kornati archipelago and the sheltered waters between the mainland and island chain. Week 1 typically focuses on exploring these protected cruising grounds, with easy day sails to Pasman, Ugljan, and the scattered islands of Kornati National Park; the prevailing northwesterly Mistral wind generally favors this area in summer. The marina serves as an ideal base for sailors wanting moderate sailing conditions and minimal distance to anchor in clear, shallow bays rather than tackling the open Adriatic.

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