What you'll pay

SailChecker Expert View

Compact day cruiser This is a small 5.5m open motorboat, ideal for couples or small groups wanting flexible coastal exploration rather than overnight stays. With no cabins or permanent berths, it's strictly a day boat, so you're looking at exploring nearby anchorages and returning to your base each evening.

Modern & practical The 2023 build means fresh equipment: electric winches and an outboard engine keep things straightforward, while the bimini provides welcome shade in Mediterranean or summer conditions. Radio and CD player add simple comfort for leisure cruising at a relaxed pace.

Excellent value At €1,840 per week with just a €250 deposit, this is genuinely affordable for what you get, perfect if you want to test motorboat ownership without commitment, or enjoy a relaxed coastal week without the complexity of a larger vessel. You're paying for simplicity and flexibility, not amenities.

Logistics caveat You'll want to confirm the charter base location with Niko Yacht, as the operator details aren't specified here. Given most of our clients fly internationally, check transfer times from the nearest airport and whether staff speak English before booking, especially if you're new to motorboat handling.

The marina & destination

Based at Diklo Port, in Zadar, Croatia. Rancraft RS Cinque.5 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 RS Cinque.5 be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Rancraft RS Cinque.5 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 RS Cinque.5?
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.
