What you'll pay

Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

Transit log
Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.
€390 per rental mandatory
Tourist tax (1,33 EUR person/day)
Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).
€1.33 per person per night mandatory
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.
€2,500 refundable mandatory

SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for families The Salona 46 is a solid choice for groups wanting comfortable cruising without fussiness—four cabins sleep up to 10, so it works brilliantly for extended families or two couples. At 14 metres, she's spacious enough to feel roomy but still manageable for less experienced sailors.

Smart, modern build Being a 2023 boat, she comes with today's essentials: air conditioning (crucial in warm Mediterranean bases), electric winches to ease the physical grind, and full navigation electronics. The sprayhood and cockpit cushions suggest the designer actually thought about real-world comfort, not just spec sheets.

Fair-value proposition A €2,500 deposit is reasonable for a boat of this size and age. Without seeing full weekly rates, it's hard to judge absolute value, but modern Salonas tend to deliver solid comfort-to-cost ratios—you're not paying premium money for a flashy name.

One practical note The listing shows no base location, which is odd. Before booking, confirm where she's moored—that'll determine your flight connections and how long your international transfer takes. If she's based in Croatia or Greece, expect straightforward airport access; elsewhere, it might add half a day to your journey.

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