Equipment (9 aboard · 43 not)

Solid mid-range cruiser The Oceanis 43 is a proven, comfortable platform—this 2007 model offers three cabins sleeping eight, making it ideal for families or small groups wanting affordable shared sailing without cramped quarters. The boat's reputation for seaworthiness and spacious layout have made it a charter favourite for nearly two decades.

Smart practical touches You're getting essentials that matter: autopilot for longer passages, solar panels for off-grid comfort, a working galley fridge, and thoughtful features like the lazy jack and sprayhood that reduce hassle during sail handling. The chart plotter in the cockpit is handy, though you'll want to confirm it's current and paired with up-to-date charts.

Good value proposition At this price point with three cabins and eight berths, you're getting genuine accommodation without paying for shiny new build premiums—and a €2,500 deposit is reasonable and manageable for a vessel this size. The Alboran operator (4/5 stars, though only two reviews) appears solid, and Las Galletas base (Tenerife) offers excellent Atlantic cruising access plus straightforward airport logistics from mainland Europe and the US.

One realistic note A 2007 boat means systems are pushing 17 years old—budget mentally for the occasional repair and confirm the autopilot, plotter, and engine hours with the operator before committing. The small sample size of reviews (two) means you'll want direct conversation

The marina & destination

C/Torre de Control 2 Planta

Can Alboran XXX Cubalibre (Las Galletas) be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Alboran XXX Cubalibre (Las Galletas) 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 Alboran XXX Cubalibre (Las Galletas)?

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.
