SailChecker note

11 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.

Solid mid-range cruiser. The Oceanis 45 is a proven, well-built platform that's genuinely comfortable for mixed-ability crews, the 2015 build is modern enough to feel current, yet old enough to be priced sensibly.

What stands out. Four cabins sleeping ten make this a genuine family or friends' boat, and the lazy bag plus sprayhood show the owner cares about easy handling; chart plotter, autopilot, and electric toilet mean less sweat, more sailing.

Fair value proposition. At this size and age, you're getting decent bang for your charter buck, not bargain-basement, but no premium either. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable and suggests honest pricing throughout.

One honest note: The base location isn't shown in your data, so I can't advise on airport transfers or how many connecting flights you're looking at, that matters when you're flying long-haul. I'd ask Le Bateau Blanc directly about their base and what the closest international airport actually is before booking.
