Perfect for groups With 6 cabins sleeping up to 12, Gin Tonic is ideal for larger families or friends wanting to share costs across multiple couples. The 2011 Jeanneau 53 is a proven cruising platform with solid handling characteristics.

Practical comfort features Air conditioning, generator, autopilot, and a bow thruster make this a genuinely comfortable boat, no roughing it on a longer passage. These systems take the stress out of cruising, especially valuable if anyone in your group is less experienced.

Strong value proposition At a €3000 deposit with 12 available berths, the per-person cost drops significantly when you fill cabins. You're getting a well-equipped, mature design that won't break the bank for a week's charter.

One thing to note The base location isn't listed in your data, so I'd recommend checking where Gin Tonic operates and factoring in your international airport transfer time before booking. Once you confirm the destination, we can help assess whether it's convenient for your crew's connecting flights.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Chiaiolella, in Procida, Italy. Gin Tonic is operated by Strambando.

Via Marina Chiaiolella

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Chiaiolella sits in the heart of the Bay of Naples, offering easy access to the Campania coast's most rewarding cruising grounds. Week 1 typically takes you among the Phlegraean Islands (Procida, Ischia, Vivara), then south along the Sorrentine Peninsula to Positano and Amalfi, with reliable northwesterly winds and short day-sail distances of 10-20 nautical miles. The protected anchorages and tight volcanic geography mean you'll spend less time motoring and more time exploring Italian villages, underwater archaeology sites, and some of southern Italy's best seafood.

Can Gin Tonic be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Gin Tonic 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 Gin Tonic?

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.
