GENERATOR & A/C, ICE MAKER,WIFI, COFFEE MACHINE, TEAK DECK, TEAK COCKPIT

Perfect for groups Athene is an excellent choice if you're chartering with friends or family, 10 berths across 5 cabins means everyone gets their own space without feeling cramped. The 2017 build keeps her modern and well-maintained, and she's genuinely set up for comfortable cruising rather than roughing it.

Well-equipped cruiser You're getting serious creature comforts here: air conditioning, heating, Wi-Fi, electric winches, radar, and a full galley with coffee maker and ice maker. The teak deck and cockpit, swimming platform, and snorkeling kit signal this is a boat designed for relaxed coastal exploring and stopping to swim, not just point-to-point sailing.

Solid value proposition A 55-footer sleeping 10 in the Adriatic is genuinely good value for a larger group, and the €2,500 deposit is reasonable. The equipment list is generous, so you're not nickel-and-dimed for essentials once you arrive.

One note: The operator has only one review on file, so while that single rating is perfect, you're booking with limited track record. I'd recommend asking Adriatic Sailing directly about their turnaround process, crew support during your charter, and any quirks specific to Athene before committing.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kaštela, in Kaštel Gomilica, Croatia. ATHENE is operated by Adriatic Sailing.

Franje Tuđmana 213

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kaštela sits within the Kaštela Bay system near Split, giving you immediate access to the central Dalmatian islands and the Adriatic's most protected cruising grounds. Week one typically involves exploring nearby Brač, Hvar, and Vis, with steady northwesterly winds ideal for sailing south toward the Pakleni Islands and Vis's excellent anchorages. The marina's proximity to Split airport and good shelter make it a practical base for longer-range cruising toward Korčula or Lastovo if conditions allow.

Can ATHENE be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter ATHENE 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 ATHENE?

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.
