SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups Star IV is an excellent choice if you're flying in with friends or family—10 berths across 4 cabins means everyone gets reasonable comfort without breaking the bank. At €2,400/week, it's genuinely competitive for a 2023 catamaran of this size.

Smart setup included The essentials are already there: solar panels keep running costs down, a proper dinghy for exploring, snorkeling kit, and decent navigation gear. The bimini and cockpit cushions make Caribbean cruising actually comfortable rather than a sunburn endurance test.

Value is solid You're getting a new boat with solar efficiency, which saves on generator time and fuel—that matters on a week-long charter. The price point reflects good market positioning for the Caribbean and what you'd expect from Star Voyage Antilles.

One realistic note The operator has only 2 reviews on record, so track record data is limited compared to brokers with deeper review histories. That said, a 4/5 rating is positive; just worth confirming current availability and recent guest feedback directly before committing, especially if you're booking from Europe or the US and factoring in long-haul travel.

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