What you'll pay

Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

Tourist tax/per person (total sum calculated upon check-in)

Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).

€1.33 per night mandatory

Comfort Pack 38/39/40/42 (final cleaning, bed linen and towels, unlimited Wi-Fi)

Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.

€500 per rental mandatory

Refundable security deposit

Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

€2,500 refundable mandatory

Ac Salon/Generator/Watermaker

Perfect for groups. With 6 cabins sleeping 12, this 2023 Lagoon 42 is ideal for families or friends wanting to charter together without splitting across multiple boats. The catamaran hull means excellent stability and shallow draft, making it forgiving for less experienced sailors.

Well-equipped modern cat. You're getting a brand-new boat with serious comfort features, air conditioning, water maker, generator, and Wi-Fi mean you won't feel like you're roughing it. The autopilot and chart plotter handle the technical side, while the dinghy gives you flexibility to explore anchorages properly.

Strong value proposition. Master Yachting holds a perfect 5-star rating, and the €2,500 deposit is reasonable for a six-cabin catamaran. At this specification level and age, pricing looks competitive for the bareboat market.

One practical note: We don't have the charter base location listed, so I'd recommend confirming with Master Yachting where the boat operates, international flights and airport transfers vary hugely depending on whether you're looking at the Caribbean, Mediterranean, or elsewhere. That detail matters for your total trip logistics.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Dalmacija Marina, in Sukošan, Croatia. SPERM WHALE is operated by Master Yachting.

Bibinje-Sukošan 1

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Dalmacija in Sukošan sits on Croatia's central Dalmatian coast, positioning you perfectly for the sheltered island-hopping grounds of the Zadar archipelago. Week one typically takes you south through the Kornati National Park's limestone islands or northwest toward Dugi Otok, both offering protected anchorages, moderate northwesterly winds, and short day hops of 10 to 20 nautical miles. The marina itself has full facilities and good provisioning, making it an efficient departure point before heading into deeper waters toward Split or the Adriatic's outer islands.

Can SPERM WHALE be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter SPERM WHALE 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 SPERM WHALE?

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.
