What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
20 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.
Smart mid-size choice The Oceanis 393 is a proven, comfortable cruiser that suits couples, small families, or groups of up to eight looking for relaxed sailing without the complexity of a larger vessel. At nearly 12 metres, she's manageable for confident intermediates while offering genuine living space across three cabins.
Solid, honest boat You get the essentials here: autopilot and chart plotter make navigation straightforward, radar adds safety in poor visibility, and the bimini top is a genuine comfort feature in warm climates. This is unpretentious, dependable equipment , nothing fancy, but it works.
Age is the reality At 18 years old, Mare is well-established in the charter fleet, which means either she's been properly maintained or showing her years , the listing doesn't specify. A €1,200 deposit is reasonable, but I'd ask Pika Sailing directly about her recent refits and actual condition before booking.
Know the base first The operator information is incomplete here, so you'll need to contact Pika Sailing to confirm the charter location, arrival logistics from your nearest airport, and whether their base has English-speaking support , essential if you're flying long-haul to reach her.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
Kornati National Park is empty coves, no shore power, true wilderness sailing. The route most people quietly call their best charter ever.
