SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This 14-metre 2020 Sun Loft is genuinely impressive for larger parties, seven cabins sleeping 12 makes it ideal for families or friends wanting to charter together without splitting boats. The zero deposit is a genuine bonus that saves hassle upfront.

Smart onboard setup She's well-equipped for bareboat comfort: autopilot and bow thruster handle the mechanics, while the sprayhood and bimini keep sun and spray manageable during longer passages. A dinghy, chart plotter, and decent galley equipment (fridge included) mean you're properly sorted for independent cruising.

Value depends on rates We can't see pricing here, but a 12-berth capacity means per-person costs can work out attractively if you fill the boat, especially compared to booking multiple smaller yachts. That said, provisioning and fuel for 12 people will add up quickly.

One real consideration Y Knot Yachting's base location isn't shown in the data, so check where you'd actually be sailing and how long your airport transfer takes after your long-haul flight. Seven cabins on a 47-footer means some cabins will be compact, so confirm bunk layouts suit your group before committing.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Solila, in Tivat, Montenegro. NEW HORIZONS is operated by Y Knot Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Solila sits in Kotor Bay, one of Europe's most sheltered cruising grounds, making it ideal for your first week if you want protected waters and short hops between medieval towns and mountain-backed anchorages. From here you can explore the Bay of Kotor itself, then push south along the Dalmatian coast toward Perast and Lustica Peninsula within easy day-sail distances. The prevailing northwesterlies funnel down the bay in summer, providing consistent but manageable winds for building confidence in the first few days.

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