SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for smaller groups The Elan Impression 40 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family of 4–6 people—three cabins sleep eight berths comfortably without feeling cramped for a week. It's genuinely well-equipped for its size, making it a sensible choice for mixed-ability crews.

Solid practical kit You get the essentials that matter: bow thruster for easier docking, autopilot to ease the workload, chart plotter for navigation, and a sprayhood for weather protection. The 2017 build year means systems are relatively modern and reliable, which counts when you're flying long-haul to reach the base.

Strong value proposition At €2,253 per week with a modest €1,300 deposit, this yacht delivers good bang for money—particularly if you're splitting costs among several people. Entry-level pricing without compromising on comfort or safety gear is refreshing.

Base location matters We don't have the charter base location in our data, so I'd recommend confirming transfer times from the nearest international airport and whether Adria Service Yachting offers English-speaking briefings and support. That detail will affect your overall trip logistics from the US or further afield.

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