Who it suits: The First 35 is perfect for couples or small families wanting an affordable, manageable sailing experience without the complexity of a larger vessel. At just 10.8 metres, it's genuinely fun to sail single-handed or with minimal crew, yet comfortable enough for two cabins and six berths.

Real standout features: You get solid day-sailing essentials, lazy jacks make sail handling effortless, and the sprayhood keeps you dry in typical European waters. The chart plotter and radio mean proper navigation, while Wi-Fi on board (a genuine bonus at this price point) lets you stay connected between anchorages.

Value for money: At €1,752 per week with just a €1,500 deposit, this is genuine value for a 2012 boat that's well-equipped and ready to go. For US or UK clients flying to a Mediterranean base, you're looking at a realistic, affordable entry point into bareboat sailing.

One honest note: With two cabins and six berths squeezed in, cabin space will feel cosy, this is a boat for sailors who prioritise time on deck over lounging below. The lack of air-conditioning could matter if you're chartering peak summer in the Med; check your base location for that.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Jezera, in Jezera, Croatia. Virgo is operated by Alternautika.

Obala Sv. Ivana

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Jezera sits on Murter Island and serves as an excellent base for exploring the central Dalmatian archipelago; the Kornati Islands lie just 15 nautical miles northeast, offering dramatic limestone formations and protected anchorages ideal for a first week's sailing. From Jezera, you can reach the Pakleni Islands and Hvar within a comfortable day's sail south, or cruise north towards Zadar and the Telascica nature park. The marina provides good provisioning and shelter, with consistent northwesterly winds (Maestral) in summer making for reliable sailing conditions for week one exploration of this island-rich coastline.

Can Virgo be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Virgo 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 Virgo?

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.
