What you'll pay

Refundable security deposit
Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

SailChecker Expert View

Compact day-boat formula. This 2022 Rancraft RM21 is a small open motorboat, think day trips and coastal exploration rather than overnight cruising, since there are no cabins or sleeping berths. It's ideal if you want bareboat flexibility without the commitment of a larger vessel, or as a tender alternative if you're already chartering something bigger nearby.

Practical setup for basics. The outboard engine keeps maintenance straightforward, and the Bimini top is essential sun protection for long days on the water in most Mediterranean or warm-water bases. Radio and CD player cover entertainment, though don't expect bells and whistles on a boat this size.

Strong value proposition. At €2,240 per week with just a €300 deposit, this is accessible pricing, especially if you're splitting costs with friends for day-boat adventures. You're getting a modern, well-maintained platform for genuinely affordable boat time.

Location gap matters here. The charter base information isn't specified in the listing, so you'll need to confirm the exact location with Niko Yacht before booking, this affects your airport transfer logistics and how convenient it is to reach from major international hubs. A 6.2m boat also limits range, so base location directly impacts where you can realistically cruise in a week.

The marina & destination

Based at Diklo Port, in Zadar, Croatia. Rancraft RM 21 is operated by Niko Yacht.

Why this is a great starting point

Diklo Port sits at the entrance to Zadar's lagoon, giving you immediate access to the Dalmatian islands and the protected waters of the Zadar Archipelago. Week 1 typically involves exploring nearby Ugljan and Pašman islands, or heading south towards Šibenik and the dramatic limestone Krka River delta; northbound charterers can reach the Telašćica nature reserve on Dugi Otok within a day's sail. The marina's location works well for both leisurely lagoon cruising and ventures into the Adriatic's deeper waters, depending on wind conditions and your crew's experience.

Frequently asked questions
Can Rancraft RM 21 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Rancraft RM 21 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 Rancraft RM 21?
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.
