SOLAR

Perfect for groups This 2012 Sun Odyssey 409 sleeps up to eight across three cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a longer sailing holiday. The 12.3-metre length is manageable without requiring an experienced skipper, though it handles well for those with decent sailing credentials.

Well-equipped vessel ARIES comes with genuinely useful kit, solar panels mean you're not draining batteries in the anchorages, the bow thruster takes stress out of tight marina approaches, and having Wi-Fi plus a chart plotter in the cockpit shows the owner thinks about modern cruising comfort. The bimini and sprayhood are real benefits for Mediterranean or Atlantic conditions.

Solid value proposition At twelve years old, this boat is well-maintained and sensibly priced for a three-cabin cruiser in this size range. The €1,800 deposit is reasonable, and Just Sail Charter's 5-star rating (albeit from just two reviews) suggests reliable service, worth asking about their support during your charter.

Limited review history The operator only has two reviews on record, so while the ratings are excellent, you're working with a smaller feedback pool than some larger brokers. Do contact Just Sail directly to ask about their turnaround times and English-speaking support, especially if you're flying in from the US or UK and want peace of mind on handover day.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Baška Voda, in Baška Voda, Croatia. ARIES is operated by Just Sail Charter.

Obala Sv. Nikole 2

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Baška Voda sits on Croatia's central Dalmatian coast, offering straightforward access to the Makarska Riviera and the islands of Brač and Hvar within easy day-sail distances. Week 1 typically involves exploring nearby anchorages and protected bays, with reliable northwesterly winds (Maestral) providing consistent sailing conditions in summer months. The marina works well as a base for clients wanting moderate sailing with good shelter options and established provisioning ashore.

Can ARIES be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter ARIES 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 ARIES?

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.
