Solid mid-range cruiser The First 45 is a well-proven design that suits mixed groups of 4–8 sailors who want a genuinely fun boat without excessive complexity or cramped quarters. With three cabins and decent headroom, it's comfortable enough for families or friends wanting real sailing rather than floating around.

What stands out You get proper sailing kit here—spinnaker, chart plotter, and a sprayhood for protection—plus practical comforts like a fridge and electric toilet. At 13.7 metres, she's large enough to feel spacious yet small enough to handle easily, even if someone in the group isn't particularly experienced.

Fair value proposition A 2009 boat at this size and specification represents honest money without premium pricing; you're paying for a solid, maintenance-friendly design rather than flashy features. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable for a bareboat of this class.

One honest note We don't have the base location or daily rate here, which matters—a First 45 in Croatia offers very different value and accessibility than one in, say, the Caribbean. Once you know where she's based, check sailing distances to your target anchorages and confirm whether the operator includes provisioning or transfers from your arrival airport.

Can GALATA be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter GALATA 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 GALATA?

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.
