SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Ginesta is a solid choice for larger parties or families, those 10 berths across 4 cabins mean you can split costs comfortably and still have proper sleeping arrangements. At 11.7 metres, she's manageable for a mixed-ability crew while offering real living space, which matters on longer charters.

Well-equipped cruiser This 2017 catamaran comes with the essentials done right: electric winches take the grunt work out of sail handling, radar and dual chart plotters keep you confident in any visibility, and the solar panels plus generator give you decent power independence. The gennaker, teak cockpit, and bimini suggest she's been set up for both comfortable cruising and enjoyable sailing.

Reasonable value proposition At this size and spec, the €4,000 deposit is fairly standard, and the catamaran hull form means better stability and interior volume than a comparable monohull, handy if anyone in your group is less confident on the water. You're getting a modern, well-equipped boat without paying superyacht prices.

One practical note We don't have pricing or base location details here, so check directly with Velanomada on weekly rates and exactly where you'll depart from, flight connections and airport transfers vary wildly depending on the region. That said, they're a solid operator, so they should make logistics straightforward once you're in touch.

The marina & destination

Based at Club Nàutic Costa Brava, in Palamós, Spain. Ginesta is operated by VELANOMADA YACHT CHARTER.

Carretera del Club Nautic s/n

Why this is a great starting point

Club Nàutic Costa Brava in Palamós positions you well for exploring the Balearic Islands and the rugged Costa Brava coastline within a week's sailing. From here, northwesterly winds typically allow straightforward passage to Ibiza or Mallorca in 1-2 days, giving you flexible options between island hopping and sheltered anchorages along the Spanish mainland coast. The marina itself handles larger yachts and offers good provisioning; week one usually breaks into either an island crossing or a more leisurely itinerary working south toward the Emerald Coast beaches and protected coves of the Costa Brava.

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