SailChecker Expert View

Great family choice The Hanse 455 is an ideal mid-sized cruiser for families or small groups wanting comfortable sailing without complexity. Four cabins sleeping eight makes it roomy for a week-long holiday, and the 2017 build means you're getting a modern, well-maintained boat with no significant age concerns.

Smart practical touches You'll appreciate the bow thruster for easy marina maneuvers and the solar panels for guilt-free power while anchored in quiet bays. The bimini and sprayhood keep sun and spray at bay during longer passages, while the chart plotter in the cockpit means navigation stays straightforward—no ducking below deck constantly.

Solid value proposition At this size and year, the Hanse 455 offers excellent bang for your charter buck, especially with those creature comforts built in. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, though do confirm the weekly rate with Sun Yachting, as it's not listed here.

One fair caveat The operator has only one review on record, so you're chartering with a smaller or newer outfit—nothing wrong with that, but do ask for references or recent client feedback before booking. Also confirm the charter base location; it's missing from the listing, which you'll need to know for your international flight logistics.

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