SailChecker note

22 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Perfect for groups This 40-footer sleeps six across three cabins, making it ideal for families or small groups wanting their own private getaway without the cost of renting multiple vessels. The motor boat layout keeps everyone comfortable and entertained with plenty of onboard amenities.

Well-equipped and comfortable You're getting solid creature comforts here, air conditioning, a generator, bow thruster for easier docking, and teak decking that feels premium. The chart plotter and radio keep you connected, while practical touches like a coffee maker make time aboard genuinely pleasant.

Reasonable value proposition At this price point with six berths and a decent spec sheet, "Perla di mare" offers solid bang for your buck compared to similar-sized motor boats in Mediterranean charters. The €5,900 deposit is fairly standard and manageable for group bookings where costs split easily.

One fair note As a 2004 build, this boat is nearly 20 years old, nothing alarming, but worth asking Free Charter directly about recent maintenance, engine hours, and any recent refits before committing. At this age, knowing the service history genuinely matters more than the usual specs.
