The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
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.
Solid mid-range cruiser The Oceanis 38 is a proven, comfortable cruiser that suits families and mixed-ability groups wanting relaxed sailing without complexity. With three cabins and eight berths, it's practical for a couple of families or friends sharing costs on a week-long getaway.
Sensible feature set You get the essentials: autopilot to ease helming, chart plotter for navigation, heating for shoulder-season comfort, and a sprayhood plus bimini for protection in variable weather. The lazy bag is genuinely useful for easier sail handling, and the fridge means proper provisioning rather than relying on daily shopping.
Fair value proposition At €2,120 per week, the pricing sits comfortably in the mid-market for a 2015 boat of this size and layout in Mediterranean or Atlantic bases. The €1,000 deposit is reasonable, and you're getting decent kit without paying premium rates.
One honest flag Batana Navtik's 3.3/5 rating across just three reviews is thin evidence, not alarming, but worth checking recent feedback and contacting them directly about specific boat condition and any recent refits. Given you're flying internationally to reach the base, a quick call to confirm the yacht's current state and their English-language support is sensible due diligence.

Tomaziceva 4a
Marina Izola sits on Slovenia's only coastline, offering quick access to the Istrian Peninsula and northern Adriatic cruising grounds. Week 1 typically involves exploring the dramatic limestone cliffs and sheltered anchorages around Rovinj and Porec in Croatia, with steady northeasterly bura winds providing reliable sailing conditions. The shallow, protected waters suit boats comfortable with variable depths, and the short hop south means you spend minimal transit time and maximum time exploring the medieval hilltop towns and pine-fringed coves of the upper Adriatic.
