Ideal for families This 2021 Oceanis 40.1 suits groups of 4, 6 sailing in comfort, or up to 8 if you don't mind cosy quarters. It's a proven cruiser with modern kit and excellent build quality from Beneteau.

Well-equipped cruiser The bow thruster, electric winches, and autopilot make handling genuinely easy, especially valuable if your crew has mixed experience levels. A chart plotter in the cockpit keeps navigation straightforward, and the inverter lets you run basic 220V appliances offshore.

Fair value proposition At this specification and age, the €3,000 deposit is reasonable, and Spartivento's 4.8-star rating (14 reviews) suggests consistent, reliable service. You're getting a solid, low-drama boat for Mediterranean or Atlantic cruising.

One practical note The listing doesn't specify the charter base location, so confirm airport transfer time and whether English-speaking support is available before booking, important when you're flying internationally to collect the yacht. Check exactly what's included beyond the standard equipment listed.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Cala de' Medici, in Castiglioncello, Italy. Clio - Standard Line is operated by Spartivento.

Viale Trieste 142

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Cala de' Medici in Castiglioncello sits on the Tuscan coast with straightforward access to the Tyrrhenian Sea's central cruising grounds. Within a week you can comfortably reach the Elba Island archipelago to the south, the Gorgona and Capraia islands to the northwest, or work along the Tuscan mainland coast toward Portoferraio; the prevailing northwesterly winds (Maestrale) typically favour southbound passages. This is a solid base for mixed itineraries combining protected anchorages with open-water sailing.

Can Clio - Standard Line be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Clio - Standard Line 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 Clio - Standard Line?

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.
