Who It Suits. This Leopard 50 works best for larger groups or multigenerational charters who want sleeping space without cramping; the 5 plus 1 layout lets you spread out properly. It's also ideal if you're chartering with a mix of sailors and non-sailors, since the catamaran's stability and generous deck space keep everyone comfortable.

Standout Features. The 2022 build is recent, and you get genuine cruising kit here: watermaker, solar panels, wind instruments, and a proper liferaft signal serious intent for longer passages. The hard top bimini and flybridge keep the Sicilian sun manageable, while the electric winch and autopilot reduce physical strain on longer days.

Value For Money. At EUR 7,900 per week from Portorosa, this is honest pricing for a five-cabin catamaran in the central Mediterranean; Sicily's charter season runs year-round, so you're not paying peak rates if you avoid July and August. The equipment list is thorough, which saves you from surprise hire fees.

One Real Caveat. Portorosa is a working fishing port rather than a glitzy resort village, so nightlife and provisioning are functional rather than cosmopolitan; if you're flying into Palermo or Catania, factor in a 90-minute to two-hour drive and transfers. It's a trade-off: quieter, less touristy sailing, but less immediate convenience.

Prime Shoulder Off-season

Sea above 20°C is comfortable swimming · above 22°C is full-summer · below 18°C feels brisk.

A starting point, not a script — pick one as a template and we'll tailor the dates, stops, and pace to your crew.

Amalfi Coast 7 days · ~120 nm · 5 stops

Spectacular but anchorages crowd in July-August. Book restaurant moorings ahead.

1 Salerno

Charter base. Spend the first night here before the coast.

2 Amalfi

Tie alongside or pick up a mooring outside the breakwater.

3 Positano

No marina — moor offshore and tender in. The dramatic photo stop.

4 Capri

Marina Grande books months ahead; many boats anchor in Marina Piccola instead.

5 Procida

Quieter than Capri, equally pretty. Marina di Corricella has the colourful houses.

Sardinia & La Maddalena 7 days · ~140 nm · 4 stops

Turquoise water and granite islands. Two-country tick (Italy + Corsica/France) without long sails.

1 Olbia

Charter base.

2 Maddalena

Permits required — the park office handles them; budget €20-30 per night.

3 Caprera

Garibaldi's island; clear anchorages on the east side.

4 Bonifacio

French Corsica — cliff-faced fjord harbour. Stamp the passport. Worth the day.

Can Pannonica be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Pannonica 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 Pannonica?

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.

Bareboat or skippered — which suits our crew?

Bareboat is for crews with at least one experienced skipper (RYA Day Skipper / ICC level) plus a co-skipper, and a track record of similar passages. Skippered charters add a professional skipper for typically £150–£250 per day — recommended if anyone in your group is light on Mediterranean experience, if you want a relaxed week without responsibility, or if the area is new to you. You can also hire a hostess (cook + cabin help) on top.

Can we sail to a neighbouring country during the charter?

Sometimes, with the operator's written consent and the right paperwork. Common cross-borders: Croatia → Montenegro, Greece → Turkey, BVI → USVI. Most operators charge a one-off cruising-permit fee (typically €100–€300) and need 4–8 weeks' notice. Tell us at quote time and we'll arrange it — spontaneous border-crossing during the trip usually isn't allowed.

Do I need travel insurance on top of the charter insurance?

Yes. The yacht is insured by the operator for damage and third-party liability, but that doesn't cover you. Charter cancellation insurance (typically 4–5% of the charter fee) covers you if you have to cancel last-minute; standard travel insurance covers medical, flight, and personal-effects loss. We can recommend a UK broker that bundles both.

What happens if there's bad weather on the day?

For day-to-day weather you'll plan the week to avoid the worst — the Adriatic and Aegean have very predictable wind patterns. If a serious storm makes the start-day handover impossible, the operator delays check-in until conditions improve and refunds any lost days. The yacht itself is insured against weather damage, so you're not exposed.

Can I hold this yacht while I decide?

Yes — an option holds the yacht in your name for typically 48–72 hours at no cost. Useful if you're waiting on the rest of the crew to confirm, comparing it against another yacht, or sorting flights. Ask us when you enquire and we'll arrange the option with the operator.

We'll check live availability, apply any discounts, and come back within hours.
