What you'll pay

Bang on the Croatia average (€200–€350 typical for boats this size).

Refundable security deposit

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples The Merry Fisher 895 is an excellent choice if you're two people who want comfort without bulk, or a small family wanting weekend escapes. At 8.9 metres with two cabins and six berths, it strikes a nice balance between intimacy and flexibility.

Solid modern kit You get sensible 2023 spec here: solar panels for sustainable cruising, a bow thruster that makes tight spaces manageable, chart plotter for navigation, and genuine comfort touches like a bimini and proper fridge. These aren't flashy extras, they're the features that actually matter when you're on the water.

Genuinely good value At €2,423 per week with only €2,000 deposit, this is accessible pricing for a newer motor cruiser with decent equipment. For international guests flying to the charter base, you're looking at a straightforward bareboat that won't demand premium fees.

One realistic note The operator has only one review on record, so there's limited independent feedback to assess service consistency or local knowledge. Before committing, it's worth reaching out directly to confirm support availability and ask how responsive they are during your charter week.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Pula, in Pula, Croatia. Ema is operated by Euromarine charter.

Riva 1

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Pula sits at the southern tip of the Istrian Peninsula, offering quick access to some of Croatia's most protected cruising grounds; week one typically covers the Brijuni Islands and the sheltered waters around Rovinj and Porec to the north, with short hops of 10 to 20 nautical miles between anchorages. The prevailing Maestral wind from the northwest makes this an ideal starting point for eastbound cruising down the coast, and the marina itself provides full facilities including fuel, provisioning, and repair services. This location suits charters looking to explore limestone cliffs, medieval hilltop towns, and relatively uncrowded anchorages within easy reach of the Italian coast.

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