SailChecker Expert View

Classic cruiser appeal The Sun Odyssey 40 is a proven, well-established design that suits sailors who want reliable performance without cutting-edge frills. At 12.2m with three cabins and six berths, it's a solid choice for small groups or families wanting affordable space, though you'll feel the 1999 build in terms of styling and some creature comforts.

Solid practical kit Cingene comes well-equipped for coastal cruising: autopilot, chart plotter, and radar make solo sailing easier, while the bimini, heating, and fridge handle basic comfort needs. The outboard engine is straightforward to maintain, and the dinghy opens up exploration opportunities at quieter anchorages.

Good value proposition A modest €1,500 deposit suggests competitive daily rates for a bareboat of this size and vintage. You're getting a capable, no-nonsense platform rather than luxury, which works well if your budget is tight and your focus is on sailing and adventure rather than onboard amenities.

Age is the honest caveat At 25+ years old, this yacht will have character, but expect systems to be dated and potentially less reliable than newer builds. Factor in that long-haul flight to the base; you'll want good communication with the operator about any mechanical quirks before you arrive and commit your holiday time.

The marina & destination

Based at Netsel Marmaris Marina, in Marmaris, Turkey. Cingene is operated by Chingene Sailing.

Sarıana Mah., M.Münir Elgin Bulvarı 38/2

Why this is a great starting point

Netsel Marmaris is well-positioned for exploring the Turkish Riviera's protected bays and islands; week one typically takes you east along the Datça Peninsula toward Ekincik, or west to the Greek islands of Symi and Rhodes depending on wind conditions. The marina offers good facilities for turnaround and provisioning, with the prevailing northwesterly winds (Etesian) favoring coastal hops to anchorages like Selimiye, Orhaniye, and Bozburun. This is an established charter base with straightforward access to shallow-water cruising among pine-backed coves, making it suitable for mixed-experience crews.

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