Who it suits This 2024 Oceanis 46.1 is ideal for families or small groups of up to 10 people wanting a modern, well-appointed sailing experience without compromise on comfort. The four cabins and solid build quality make it perfect for those mixing sailing with relaxation rather than pure performance racing.

Standout features You're getting a brand-new boat with excellent spec: electric winches and bow thruster mean less physical effort, while the autopilot and chart plotter make navigation straightforward for mixed-ability crews. The inverter, refrigeration, coffee maker, and electric toilet bring proper home comforts, rare in this size class, and Spartivento's impressive 4.8/5 rating suggests the operator knows how to maintain their fleet.

Value perspective At this spec level and brand-new condition, the pricing sits where you'd expect for a modern Beneteau in the Mediterranean or popular European base. The €3,500 deposit is reasonable, and you're not paying a premium for a flashy name, this is honest, practical value for mixed-ability crews.

One practical note The charter base location isn't shown in the details, so you'll want to confirm airport proximity and transfer logistics before booking, critical if you're flying intercontinental. Once you verify the base, this boat represents genuinely solid value for a comfortable, stress-free week afloat.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Portorosa, in Furnari, Italy. Aeolia - Comfort line is operated by Spartivento.

Via Prestipaolo 7

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Portorosa sits on Sicily's north coast and offers immediate access to the Aeolian Islands, all reachable within a day's sail. Week 1 typically takes you through Lipari, Vulcano, and Salina, with consistent northwesterly winds making the return journey straightforward. The shallow, protected waters around the archipelago suit various boat sizes, and you can easily explore volcanic anchorages and small harbours before heading further east towards Messina Strait or west to Cefalù.

Can Aeolia - Comfort line be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Aeolia - Comfort 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 Aeolia - Comfort 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.
