SailChecker Expert View

Solid entry-level choice The First 31.7 is a proven family cruiser that suits sailors wanting accessible coastal exploration without breaking the bank. At €1,657 per week, it's genuinely affordable for a two-cabin boat with space for six, making it excellent value for groups or families splitting costs.

Practical setup You get the essentials: chart plotter and autopilot take the stress out of navigation, while the dinghy lets you explore anchorages properly. The refrigerator is a real comfort for longer trips, and the radio keeps you entertained or connected to local conditions.

Real value proposition For transatlantic travelers, Crouesty (Brittany, France) offers reasonable airport logistics, Nantes is 90 minutes away with decent connections from the US and UK. At this price point with a manageable 9.7-metre hull, you're getting honest, no-frills sailing rather than luxury.

One genuine limitation A 2010 boat at this charter price likely means older systems and potential wear, nothing alarming, but factor in that the autopilot and plotter may occasionally need TLC during a week-long charter. If you need pristine or cutting-edge tech, budget expectations should adjust accordingly.

The marina & destination

Based at Port du Crouesty, in Arzon, France. Ker Jonathan is operated by Crouesty Location.

Quai des Voiliers

Why this is a great starting point

Port du Crouesty in Arzon serves as an excellent base for exploring the Gulf of Morbihan, a shallow-water paradise of islands and tidal channels that rewards careful navigation within a few miles of the marina. From here, week one typically involves short hops to Vannes, the Ile aux Moines, or southbound passages toward the Quiberon Peninsula and the Atlantic-facing Houat and Hoedic islands, all achievable within 10-20 nautical miles depending on your crew's experience with tidal waters. The marina's sheltered position and strong provisioning facilities make it ideal for crews new to the French Atlantic coast, though you should plan around the significant tidal ranges of up to 14 metres that characterise this region.

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