SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Nautitech 40 Open sleeps up to eight across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a longer charter. At 12 metres, it's manageable for mixed-experience crews without feeling cramped.

Smart, modern setup Solar panels and an electric toilet show this 2021 build prioritises comfort and sustainability—you'll appreciate the reduced engine hours and lower environmental footprint. The lazy bag and lazy jack are genuine time-savers for sail handling, especially if your group isn't racing-crew experienced.

Reasonable value proposition A €5,000 deposit is mid-range for a four-cabin cat in this size bracket, and the spec sheet suggests solid day-to-day cruising kit without premium pricing. You're getting practical features rather than luxury frills, which suits people who value usability over gloss.

One note of caution The operator has only one review on file, so track record data is thin—nothing worrying, but worth asking ACM directly about their maintenance schedule and client feedback before committing. Also, we don't have the base location listed here, so confirm flight connections and transfer logistics once you identify where the boat sits.

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