SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples This 31.7 is an ideal weekender for two people or a small family wanting to explore Sicily's coastline without breaking the bank. The 2004 build keeps costs down, and at nearly 10 metres she's nimble enough for one or two people to handle comfortably.

Smart essentials included You've got the gear that matters: lazy bag for easy sail handling, autopilot for those longer passages, and a dinghy to get ashore. Refrigeration and DVD player add comfort for downtime between days on the water, sensible touches for a boat at this price point.

Great value proposition At just €2,000 deposit with Sicily Charter, this represents honest, no-frills Mediterranean sailing without luxury pricing. She's well-equipped for bareboat sailing if you're qualified, or a solid platform for a skipper-led charter to learn the Aeolian Islands or Tyrrhenian routes.

Modest cabin space Two cabins sleeping six means tight quarters if you're maxing out, expect cosy bunks rather than roomy berths. The 2004 age is fair value, but factor in that older boats occasionally need minor maintenance surprises during your week.

The marina & destination

Based at Marsala Marina, in Marsala, Italy. Finisterrae is operated by Sicily Charter.

Why this is a great starting point

Marsala Marina sits on Sicily's northwest coast, offering direct access to the Aeolian Islands and the Tyrrhenian Sea's sheltered cruising grounds. Week 1 typically takes you northeast to Favignana and Levanzo in the Egadi Islands, or across to Pantelleria; these passages are 20-40 nautical miles with reliable thermal winds and settled summer conditions. The marina provides good facilities and provisioning for longer explorations toward the Lipari archipelago or the Tyrrhenian coast.

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