SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for groups. With 6 cabins sleeping 12, this Oceanis 50 is perfect for families or friends chartering together, you'll each get your own bunk without feeling cramped. It's a proven cruiser that handles well in various conditions.

Well-equipped for comfort. The lazy bag and lazy jack make sail handling easier, while the autopilot, chart plotter, and bimini are genuine quality-of-life additions on longer passages. Refrigeration and cockpit speakers add a civilised touch that larger groups appreciate.

Solid value proposition. At 15 metres with this cabin count and gear spec, the €4,000 deposit suggests reasonable daily rates for group charters, your per-person cost drops significantly when 12 of you split it. The 2012 build is well-proven, so you're not paying extra for newness.

One consideration: The base location isn't specified in the listing, which is unusual, you'll want to confirm where Y Knot Yachting operates and factor in your international arrival time before committing. Once you know the base, check transfer times from the nearest major airport so your group doesn't lose a charter day to travel.

The marina & destination

Based at Kalkara Marina, in Kalkara, Malta. IN COMPLIANCE is operated by Y Knot Yachting.

Kalkara Wharf

Why this is a great starting point

Kalkara Marina sits in the Grand Harbour area of Valletta, offering immediate access to Malta's central cruising grounds and the sister islands of Gozo and Comino, all reachable within a day's sail. Week 1 typically involves exploring the sheltered anchorages around Comino, the northwest coast toward Mellieha Bay, and day trips to Gozo's harbours at Mgarr or Xlendi, with consistent northwesterly winds providing reliable sailing. The marina's position in one of the Mediterranean's finest natural harbours means you can clear customs and provisioning on arrival before heading out, minimising admin before your holiday begins.

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