What you'll pay

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.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

Charter pack multi weeks (end cleaning, bed linen, towels, starter kit, outboard fuel 5l, 2 bottles of gas, transit log)
Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.
€405 per rental mandatory
Tourist tax per pax
Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).
€1.33 per night mandatory
Outboard engine ( included in price)
Included mandatory
Charter pack (end cleaning, bed linen, towels, starter kit,outboard fuel 5l, 2 bottles of gas, transit log)
Bang on the Croatia average (€200–€350 typical for boats this size).
€305 per rental mandatory
Refundable security deposit
Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

About this yacht
NEW main sail, bimini & sprayhood 2024, new jib 2025, with SOLAR PANELS
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples or small groups. The Oceanis 38.1 is an excellent mid-sized cruiser that handles three cabins and up to 8 berths, making it ideal for two families or a group of friends wanting a manageable, comfortable boat without going massive.

Thoughtful modern touches. Solar panels, electric toilet, autopilot, and a cockpit chart plotter make this 2018 build feel contemporary and genuinely user-friendly for both experienced sailors and those with lighter credentials. The bimini and sprayhood are huge quality-of-life upgrades for longer passages or sun-heavy destinations.

Strong value proposition. The €1,500 deposit is refreshingly reasonable, and Waypoint's 4.7/5 rating (though based on just 3 reviews) suggests solid reliability, always a good sign for an operator handling a boat this size and specification.

One honest note: The base location isn't listed here, so I can't comment on airport logistics or how convenient it is for transatlantic or European flyers. Before booking, check the exact charter base and flight connections, that'll make or break the trip logistics for international clients.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Dubrovnik, in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Obsession is operated by Waypoint.

Na skali 2, Mokošica

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Dubrovnik sits at the southern tip of the Dalmatian coast, offering immediate access to the Elaphiti Islands and the protected waters around Lopud and Kolocep; week one typically involves gentle coastal hops south towards Cavtat or northwest towards the Peljesac Peninsula, with consistent northwesterly winds in summer allowing straightforward sailing between established anchorages. The marina's position makes it ideal if you want to combine urban exploration in Dubrovnik's old town with short-passage cruising, though the busy charter base means the immediate anchorages fill quickly in peak season.
