SailChecker Expert View

Intimate coastal explorer The RM 890 "Little Wing" is ideal for couples or small families who want to explore France's Brittany coast without the complexity of a larger vessel. At 8.8 metres, she's nimble enough for shallow anchorages and quieter harbours that bigger boats can't access.

Practical essentials included You get the core gear that matters—chart plotter, autopilot, and a dinghy for tender runs ashore—plus a fridge to keep provisions fresh during multi-day passages. The radio and CD player add a touch of comfort to evenings at anchor, though creature comforts are understandably modest on a boat this size.

Sensible entry price At a €2,250 deposit, this is genuinely affordable chartering, making her excellent value if you're budget-conscious or testing whether bareboat sailing suits your family. Weekly rates aren't listed here, but an 8.8m Breton-based sailboat typically sits in the accessible mid-range for independent skippers.

Tight quarters reality Two cabins for up to six berths means you'll be cosy—potentially cramped if all bunks are full. If personal space and privacy matter to your group, consider whether six people really works, or plan for four to five as a more comfortable baseline.

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