Ideal for families The Oceanis 46.1 is a brilliantly practical choice for family groups or small teams exploring the Adriatic. With four cabins sleeping ten, it offers genuine comfort without compromising performance, you get real living space, not a compromise boat that tries to do everything averagely.

Modern essentials included This 2024 yacht ticks all the boxes for a relaxed charter: air conditioning and heating keep you comfortable year-round, autopilot takes the grind out of longer passages, and the bow thruster makes tight harbour work stress-free. Solar panels, Wi-Fi, and onboard entertainment mean nobody needs to rough it, and the cockpit barbecue is genuinely useful for suppers at anchor.

Strong value proposition Adriatic Yacht Charter carries a perfect 5-star rating despite limited reviews, which suggests serious attention to detail. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable, and you're getting a brand-new build with modern systems, avoid the headaches of worn-out older boats and maintenance surprises.

One practical note The Adriatic base requires getting to the region (likely a connecting flight from London, Frankfurt, or major US hubs), so factor in a day of travel logistics, but once you're there this yacht rewards the journey with excellent sailing conditions and protected, scenic cruising grounds.

The marina & destination

Based at ACI Marina Dubrovnik, in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Vanga is operated by Adriatic Yacht Charter.

Na skali 2, Mokošica

Why this is a great starting point

ACI Marina Dubrovnik sits at the southern tip of the Dalmatian coast, offering immediate access to the Elaphiti Islands and the protected waters around Lopud and Kolocep; week one typically involves gentle coastal hops south towards Cavtat or northwest towards the Peljesac Peninsula, with consistent northwesterly winds in summer allowing straightforward sailing between established anchorages. The marina's position makes it ideal if you want to combine urban exploration in Dubrovnik's old town with short-passage cruising, though the busy charter base means the immediate anchorages fill quickly in peak season.

Can Vanga be rented with or without a skipper?

Vanga can be chartered either bareboat (without a skipper) if you have appropriate sailing qualifications, or with a professional skipper through Adriatic Yacht Charter if you prefer guidance or lack experience. We recommend confirming skipper availability and costs directly with the operator when booking.

What sailing licence do I need to charter Vanga?

For bareboat charter of Vanga, you'll typically need an International Certificate of Competence (ICC) or equivalent national sailing qualification demonstrating competence on yachts of this size. Adriatic Yacht Charter will confirm their specific requirements at booking, some operators accept certain national licenses or experience documentation as alternatives.

What's included in the charter price?

Charter prices typically include the yacht, standard navigation equipment, basic safety gear, and mooring/base facilities. You should clarify with Adriatic Yacht Charter exactly what's included, for example, whether bed linens, towels, or end-of-charter cleaning are covered, as this varies by operator.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Beyond the charter fee, expect to pay for fuel, provisioning (food/water), optional equipment hire (extras like watermakers or autopilots), and potentially end-of-charter cleaning if not included. Mooring or marina fees may also apply depending on where you anchor or dock during your charter.

How does the security deposit work for Vanga?

Vanga requires a €2,000 refundable security deposit, typically held by Adriatic Yacht Charter to cover accidental damage. This is refunded after checkout if the yacht is returned in good condition; any damage costs are deducted from the deposit before return.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms vary depending on how far in advance you cancel, Adriatic Yacht Charter should provide their specific policy at booking. Most operators offer partial refunds if cancelled well ahead, but closer to the charter date, non-refundable or heavily penalized cancellations are standard.

Is Vanga insured?

Vanga carries operator insurance through Adriatic Yacht Charter, but this typically covers third-party liability and hull damage only under normal use. Your personal equipment and possessions are not covered; we recommend charterers arrange their own travel and marine insurance, especially for international trips from the US or Europe.

What documents do I need to bring?

Bring a valid passport, sailing qualifications (ICC or national equivalent for bareboat), and your driving licence as photo ID. You may also want proof of insurance, travel insurance documents, and any medical prescriptions, check with Adriatic Yacht Charter for their specific check-in requirements.

What payment methods are accepted?

Most yacht charter operators in Croatia accept bank transfers, credit cards, and PayPal, though we recommend confirming payment methods and any international payment fees with Adriatic Yacht Charter directly when booking. A deposit is usually required to secure your dates, with the balance due before arrival.
