SailChecker Expert View

Solid family cruiser The Oceanis 46.1 is a proven, modern design that works beautifully for families or mixed groups of up to 8 berths across 3 cabins. At 14.6m, she's manageable for experienced sailors but spacious enough that you won't feel cramped, the Oceanis range is known for clever interior layout and light-filled cabins.

Well-equipped vessel You're getting serious kit here: autopilot, bow thruster, and a proper chart plotter make single-handed or relaxed sailing entirely realistic. The swimming platform and bimini are brilliant for hot-weather cruising, and that teak deck adds real character compared to standard moulded alternatives.

Fair value proposition A 2022 boat with this spec and 8-berth capacity is competitively priced in the modern bareboat market. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable, and GiuGioMa operate professionally, though I'd confirm the base location and check their fuel policy, as those details shape your actual cost.

One practical note The outboard engine is convenient for fuel efficiency and flexibility, but have a frank chat with the operator about engine hours and maintenance history, especially on a newer boat; outboards can catch owners off-guard if poorly serviced. Also clarify whether the two dinghies are included or an extra cost.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Galizzi, in Palermo, Italy. giugioma is operated by GiuGioMa Charter.

Via Filippo Patti

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Galizzi sits on Palermo's waterfront, offering straightforward access to the Tyrrhenian Sea and the island-hopping routes of the Aeolian Islands. Week 1 typically involves sailing northeast to Lipari, Salina, or Panarea, with moderate winds from the north to northwest allowing comfortable coastal passages of 40-60 nautical miles. The protected anchorages and volcanic scenery of these islands provide excellent swimming and provisioning stops before either returning or continuing south toward the Egadi Islands.

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