SailChecker Expert View

Perfect starter choice The Maxus 26 is an excellent entry-level keelboat for couples or small families new to sailing or wanting a relaxed week afloat. At 7.6 meters, she's forgiving to handle, easy to maneuver in tight anchorages, and won't demand advanced seamanship skills.

Solid practical setup You get two cabins (handy for privacy on a week-long trip), a working galley with fridge, chart plotter for navigation, and a dinghy for exploring anchorages—all the essentials without unnecessary frills. The 2020 build means systems should be reliable, though at this size you're living cozy, not luxurious.

Good value proposition At €1,406 per week with a reasonable €2,250 deposit, this represents sensible pricing for a newer small cruiser in Brittany. You're not paying for flashy features, which keeps costs down and maintenance straightforward.

One honest note Six berths sounds generous on paper, but squeezing six people into a 7.6-meter boat means tight sleeping quarters and limited privacy—realistically, four guests enjoy this boat far more comfortably than six. If you're flying from the US or beyond to Crouesty, factor in the Brittany location; it's scenic but requires planning your airport transfers and onward logistics.

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