SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for families The Isla 40 is an excellent choice if you're traveling with kids or another couple—four cabins sleep eight comfortably, and the catamaran's stability and shallow draft make it forgiving for less experienced sailors. The 2024 build means everything is modern and reliable.

Smart, self-sufficient setup Solar panels, a water maker, and air conditioning are genuine game-changers for extended charters in warm climates; you won't feel pinched for freshwater or power, and the generator backs you up when needed. The electric toilet and modern amenities keep things hassle-free.

Strong value proposition At €4,130/week with a modest €3,500 deposit, this feels fairly priced for a new catamaran with this specification and comfort level. You're getting genuinely useful cruising kit, not just the basics.

Rating caveat worth noting MG Yachts has only two reviews on record, so while both are perfect 5-stars, there's limited feedback to draw from. Before booking, it's worth digging into their cancellation policy and service record directly—two reviews aren't enough to be completely certain of their operational consistency.

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