SailChecker Expert View

Classic gulet charm The Kaptan Yarkin is a traditional 23.5-metre gulet built in 1997, offering that timeless wooden-vessel character many sailors actively seek. With 6 cabins sleeping 12 guests, it's an excellent fit for multi-family groups or friends wanting an intimate, social sailing experience rather than a luxury floating hotel.

Well-equipped for exploration You get the essentials covered: air conditioning (crucial in Med summers), snorkeling kit, SUP board, dinghy with outboard, and Wi-Fi for staying connected between anchorages. These additions suggest the operator understands what modern charterers actually need when they're away for a week.

Zero deposit is rare The €0 deposit is genuinely unusual and removes friction—particularly valuable if you're coordinating an international group charter from the US or northern Europe and want clarity upfront. That said, we don't have pricing data displayed here, so factor in asking directly about per-cabin rates versus whole-yacht hire, which affects value significantly.

Age requires honesty At 27 years old, this gulet will deliver character and that authentic sailing atmosphere, but expect more maintenance quirks than newer builds—think older plumbing, occasional refrigeration hiccups, or creaky wooden joints. If you prioritize pristine modernism over soul, look elsewhere; if you love traditional wooden vessels and don't mind a bit of charm-with-character, this could be your boat.

Frequently asked questions
Can Kaptan Yarkin Cabin 1 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Kaptan Yarkin Cabin 1 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 Kaptan Yarkin Cabin 1?
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.
