SailChecker note

10 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Who it suits This is a solid choice for small groups or families wanting a manageable sailing experience without sacrificing comfort. The three-cabin layout sleeps six, making it ideal for two couples or a family with teenage kids.

Standout features The 2016 Oceanis 38 is a proven, well-equipped platform with a bow thruster for easier berthing in tight spots, genuinely useful for less experienced skippers. You're also getting practical sun protection with the bimini and sprayhood, which matters on longer passages or hot-weather charters.

Value and practicality At 11.6 metres, this is a size that balances spaciousness with manageable handling, and the €3,500 deposit is reasonable. Boomerang's 5/5 rating across their reviews is encouraging, though note the sample size is small, still worth taking as a positive signal.

One practical note The base location isn't listed in your data, so you'll want to confirm where "Marta" is moored and how far it is from your likely arrival airport. Factor in ground transfer time when booking your international flights.
