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)

Tourist tax/person (in cash)
Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).
€10 per week person 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.
€500 per rental 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.
€4,000 refundable mandatory

Services & extras (optional)

Early Check-in (after confirmation)
€200 per rental optional
Late Check-out (after confirmation)
€200 per rental optional
Non-standard check in hour (in cash)

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples This 2023 Sessa Fly 42 suits pairs or small families wanting comfort without the hassle of sailing, it's a modern, well-equipped motorboat with a flybridge that gives you real outdoor living space. The two cabins and five berths mean you could comfortably bring the kids or another couple along.

Smart layout and kit You're getting decent specification here: bow thruster for easy maneuvering in tight anchorages, radar and autopilot for confidence at sea, and practical touches like a coffee maker and TV. The flybridge design is the real selling point, it's where you'll actually want to spend your time in the Adriatic.

Solid value proposition At €9,400 per week from an established operator, this feels fairly priced for a newish 42-footer in that region. Your €4,000 deposit is reasonable, and the boat's age means systems should be reliable without the premium you'd pay for a brand-new vessel.

Charter logistics matter The listing doesn't specify which Adriatic base you'll depart from (Split, Trogir, or further south), so confirm flight connections before booking, some ports have better international access than others. Ask the operator directly about airport transfers and whether they arrange pre-arrival provisioning, as that can save you precious first-day admin.

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Marina Mandalina in Šibenik sits perfectly positioned for exploring the central Dalmatian coast, with the Kornati Islands and Pakleni Islands within easy reach of your first week's sailing. The marina offers good shelter and full facilities, making it an ideal base to head north toward the island-dotted Zadar region or south to Hvar and Brač, depending on prevailing northwesterly winds. Week 1 typically involves island-hopping through shallow, protected waters with consistent afternoon breezes, ideal for building confidence before venturing further along the coast.

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