SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for larger groups This 60-footer sleeps up to 12 across 6 cabins, making it ideal for extended families or friends wanting to share costs on a week-long adventure. At roughly €393 per person per night for a full crew, the per-berth value is genuinely competitive for a vessel of this size and age.

Well-equipped cruiser The standout features here are the water maker, generator, and air conditioning—essentials for comfort on longer passages—plus a bow thruster that takes the stress out of tight mooring situations. Teak decks, bimini, and sprayhood suggest she's been properly maintained and outfitted for real cruising, not just day-sailing.

Honest value question At nearly 20 years old, Christianna VIII is a mature boat, and at €4,700+ per week you're paying for capacity rather than cutting-edge comfort. The equipment list is solid, but you're essentially chartering a spacious floating dormitory rather than a luxury experience.

Missing key detail The charter base location isn't listed here, which matters hugely for your flight logistics and whether connecting flights add a full day of travel. Before committing, confirm where Christianna Yachts operates and check airport transfer times—that'll make or break your first and last day.

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