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.
Best for couples Salty Kiss suits couples or small families wanting a nimble, modern motor boat with genuine creature comforts. At 8.9 metres, she's responsive and easy to handle, yet sleeps up to five if you don't mind cosy quarters.
Standout features Solar panels paired with an inverter mean lower running costs and more self-sufficiency, ideal if you're island-hopping without constant refuelling. The teak cockpit, swimming platform, and bimini create a genuinely pleasant deck experience, while twin chart plotters and a bow thruster make navigation and tight moorings straightforward.
Value consideration A 2022 Merry Fisher 895 with this spec, air con, heating, Wi-Fi, modern electronics, represents solid mid-range value for a Mediterranean or Atlantic base. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable, though we'd need to see the daily rate to judge overall pricing against comparable 8-9 metre alternatives.
One honest note Orvas Yachting shows only 2 reviews at 5/5, which is limited feedback for assessing their actual service consistency. Before committing, ask existing clients about their experience with check-in processes, support responsiveness, and fuel/damage claim handling, especially important when you're flying long-haul to reach the boat.

ACI Marina Split sits at the heart of the Dalmatian coast, giving you immediate access to the sheltered island-hopping grounds of central Dalmatia within a 20-nautical-mile radius. Week one typically involves cruising south toward Hvar and Vis, or north to Trogir and the Pakleni Islands, with consistent northwesterly winds (the Maestral) favouring both directions. The marina itself is well-equipped with provisioning and repair facilities, and the nearby medieval Old Town means crew can explore while the boat is prepared.
