What you'll pay

Perfect for relaxed cruising. The Grand Soleil 50 suits families and groups of friends who want a comfortable, well-equipped boat without the complexity of a larger vessel. At nearly 15 metres with four cabins sleeping up to 10, she's roomy enough for real comfort on week-long trips.

Solid mid-range features. You get the essentials that matter: electric winches (easy on the arms), a bow thruster (helpful in tight anchorages), chart plotter, and modern comforts like heating, Wi-Fi, and a teak deck that feels special. The bimini and sprayhood mean you're protected from the elements without fussing.

Good value proposition. At €2,405 per week with a modest €3,000 deposit, this 2005 Grand Soleil is honestly priced for a four-cabin cruiser in this size bracket. You're paying for a proven, well-built Italian design rather than paying premium rates for a newer boat.

One fair note. With only 3.3 reviews on file, NCP-Charter's track record is limited, worth checking recent feedback before committing, especially if you're flying long-haul to reach the base. The operator rating itself is solid at 4.3/5, but a larger sample would give you more confidence.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Mandalina, in Šibenik, Croatia. Kety is operated by NCP-Charter.

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Marina Mandalina in Šibenik sits perfectly positioned for exploring the central Dalmatian coast, with the Kornati Islands and Pakleni Islands within easy reach of your first week's sailing. The marina offers good shelter and full facilities, making it an ideal base to head north toward the island-dotted Zadar region or south to Hvar and Brač, depending on prevailing northwesterly winds. Week 1 typically involves island-hopping through shallow, protected waters with consistent afternoon breezes, ideal for building confidence before venturing further along the coast.

Can Kety be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Kety 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 Kety?

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.
