This Beneteau Oceanis 38 from 2016 with 3 double cabins and two toilets with showers is a perfect choice for your sailing holiday in Croatia.
It can comfortably accommodate up to 8 people, and it has a fully equipped kitchen with a gas cooker and oven and a comfortable saloon.
Sailing across the Adriatic Sea never been so easier with main furling sail, GPS chart plotter in cockpit, autopilot, and a bow thruster.
On the deck, there is a sunshade, cockpit table, and deck shower.
There is also a USB, BT, AUX connection, and unlimited Wi-Fi, and sound system perfect for listening to your favorite music while sailing.

Great all-rounder The Oceanis 38 is a popular, well-proven cruiser that suits confident intermediate to advanced sailors, or groups wanting comfortable coastal exploring without breaking the bank. With three cabins and eight berths, it works well for families or friends seeking proper sleeping space rather than bunking tightly together.

Solid practical kit ARSEN comes well-equipped for bareboat sailing: bow thruster makes tight mooring straightforward, autopilot and chart plotter handle navigation, and the sprayhood keeps spray off during rougher days. Decent comfort touches like Wi-Fi, fridge, and a dinghy with outboard add real value for a week's charter.

Fair value proposition At 2016 vintage, this boat offers honest, reliable performance without premium pricing. Orvas Yachting's perfect 5-star rating (albeit from just two reviews) suggests solid maintenance and responsive service, always worth noting when flying internationally to a charter base.

One practical note The base location isn't listed in your data, so confirm flight connections and transfer time to where ARSEN sits before booking; that matters when you're coordinating international travel and want minimal hassle getting to your boat.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Split, in Split, Croatia. ARSEN is operated by Orvas Yachting.

Uvala Baluni 8

Why this is a great starting point

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.

Can ARSEN be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter ARSEN 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 ARSEN?

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.
