SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for small groups This 2017 Oceanis 41.1 is a solid mid-range cruiser that suits couples or small families wanting affordable bareboat sailing without compromising on comfort. With 3 cabins sleeping 6, you've got genuine flexibility for mixed groups or families who don't need luxury but do need practicality.

Well-equipped cruiser The spec sheet impresses, you get a bow thruster (huge for tight anchorages), autopilot, swimming platform, and a proper sprayhood plus bimini for all-weather cruising. The teak cockpit and lazy jack are nice touches that suggest this boat's been well-maintained by an operator who understands what charter clients actually want.

Strong value proposition At €3,645 per week with only a €2,500 deposit, this yacht delivers genuine bang for money compared to newer or larger options in the same market. For bareboat sailing in a proven design, this pricing sits comfortably in the sweet spot, not budget basement, but genuinely fair.

One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed in your details, so you'll want to confirm with Beyond Yachting how airport transfers work and whether the base has proper English-speaking support, especially important if you're flying intercontinental to reach her. That said, the Oceanis 41.1 is globally popular, so most international operators know this boat inside out.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. Free is operated by Beyond Yachting.

East Shore

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.

Frequently asked questions
Can Free be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Free 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 Free?
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.
