SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for groups XENA is a solid choice for 6–8 sailors wanting a well-equipped 45-footer without breaking the bank. The three-cabin layout sleeps up to eight, making her excellent value for shared charters among friends or small families.

Smart extras aboard She comes rigged with practical kit: spinnaker for downwind fun, sprayhood for rough weather comfort, chart plotter for navigation, and electric toilet plus fridge for genuine liveability. These aren't luxury touches, but they're the things that actually matter on a week-long passage.

Solid value proposition At 2013 vintage, XENA is a reliable workhorse from a trusted French builder—First boats hold their reputation well. The modest €2,000 deposit suggests competitive daily rates for a boat this size and spec.

One honest note We don't have the charter base location in your details, so I can't advise on airport transfers or how convenient she is to reach from major international hubs. Before booking, confirm the base location and flight connections—that matters just as much as the boat itself for a long-haul trip.

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