SailChecker Expert View

Classic gulet charm The Aborda is a traditional 24m gulet that suits groups and families seeking an authentic wooden-vessel experience in the Mediterranean. With 8 cabins sleeping up to 16, it's ideal for larger parties wanting to split costs and maximize the social side of a sailing holiday.

Standout strengths You're getting genuine gulet character here—these wooden vessels are built for cruising and lounging, not racing. The package includes dinghy and snorkeling kit, which matters if your group plans to explore quieter anchorages and reefs, plus the zero deposit is refreshingly straightforward for budgeting.

Value proposition At 1989 build, the Aborda won't be a gleaming modern yacht, but that's reflected in what you're paying for—rustic Mediterranean ambiance rather than luxury polish. For a large group splitting the charter fee, this represents solid value if you prioritize experience over finishes.

Worth knowing The specs don't specify the base location, which matters for flight logistics—you'll want to confirm whether the operator is based in Turkey, Greece, or Croatia before booking, as that significantly affects your international access and transfer time from a major hub. It's worth checking exact cabin configurations too, as "16 berths across 8 cabins" can mean tight quarters depending on layout.

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