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)

Transit log/final cleaning

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

€400 per rental mandatory

Turist Tax

€1.33 per person per night 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.

Perfect for families The Merry Fisher 1095 is an excellent choice for families or small groups wanting a relaxed motorboat holiday without the learning curve of sailing. With three cabins sleeping eight, it offers comfortable accommodation and genuine flexibility for multi-generational trips or two couples.

Smart practical features The bow thruster and air conditioning are real quality-of-life touches on a 10.5m boat, they make handling in tight marinas effortless and keep everyone comfortable during Mediterranean summers. The swimming platform is a genuine bonus for warm-water charters, and the chart plotter means confident navigation even for less experienced boaters.

Strong value proposition At €4,464 per week with a modest €3,000 deposit, this feels fairly priced for a nearly-new motorboat with this spec and sleeping capacity. You're getting modern equipment and reliability without the premium tag of luxury brands.

One heads-up The base location isn't listed here, which matters, motorboats suit certain regions (Greek islands, Croatian coast, French Riviera) far better than others. Before booking, confirm the base location works for your flight connections and that the cruising grounds match what you're after.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Borik, in Zadar, Croatia. Serendipity is operated by Sea Drive.

Obala kneza Domagoja 1

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Borik sits on Zadar's waterfront with straightforward access to the central Dalmatian islands. Week 1 typically sees you sailing south to the Pakleni Islands and Hvar, or north towards the Kornati archipelago; both routes work well with prevailing northwesterlies and offer sheltered anchorages within 15-30 nautical miles. The marina itself provides solid facilities and a good base for clients who want immediate island-hopping without long delivery passages.

Can Serendipity be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Serendipity 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 Serendipity?

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.
