SailChecker Expert View

Classic elegance at fair price. The Sun Legende 41 is a timeless cruising yacht that appeals to sailors who value character and proven design over glitzy modern interiors. At nearly 40 years old, she's a sturdy, honest boat with a loyal following among experienced charterers.

Well-equipped for independence. Solar panels, a dinghy, and refrigeration are genuine practical touches that matter on longer cruises—you won't be entirely reliant on shore power or ice. These add real value to a week away, especially if you're planning to explore quieter anchorages rather than staying tied to marinas.

Solid value proposition. At €5,940 per week with zero deposit required, she's reasonably priced for a three-cabin cruising yacht that sleeps six comfortably. The no-deposit option is genuinely helpful for international charterers managing currency and payment logistics from abroad.

Age requires honesty. A 1987 yacht is well-loved but will show her years—expect some quirks, occasional temperamental systems, and a layout that feels snug rather than spacious by modern standards. If you're chartering long-haul to reach her, confirm maintenance records and recent upgrades directly with Salty Planet before committing, so there are no surprises on arrival day.

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