What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Who it suits This is ideal for families or small groups after a comfortable, hassle-free coastal getaway without the sailing learning curve. The three cabins and modern amenities mean everyone gets proper rest between days exploring, and the motor setup handles variable conditions reliably.
Standout features The 2022 build quality shines here, solar panels, inverter, and generator give you genuine energy independence for longer trips away from marinas. Bow thruster and autopilot take the stress out of tight anchorages and piloting, while the swimming platform invites proper Mediterranean swimming.
Real value here At this size and specification, Black Pearl offers strong bang for money, you're getting a virtually new boat with serious tech (Wi-Fi, air-con, heating) that keeps you comfortable in shoulder seasons. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable for this class.
One honest note Motor boats burn fuel where sailboats don't, so fuel costs and engine hours matter more than you'd think on a longer charter. Confirm fuel policy and typical daily consumption with Yacht Charter Makarska upfront, especially if cruising distances are ambitious, it's worth asking about their base location and marina-to-marina distances in that region.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
