With well-designed spaces and a cozy interior layout, the Sun Odyssey 42.2 provides comfort and functionality for an unparalleled sailing experience. Thanks to its exceptional performance and maneuverability, this boat is perfect for exploring the waters with style and safety. With the Sun Odyssey 42.2, your clients will be able to enjoy unforgettable cruises and relaxing moments on the open sea.

Classic cruiser charm Jalù is a well-established Sun Odyssey 42.2, a proven design that's comfortable for mixed-ability groups wanting to sail without heavy technical demands. At 12.8 metres with three cabins and room for eight, she suits families or friends wanting genuine sailing alongside relaxed cruising.

Equipment highlights She's sensibly equipped with autopilot, radar, and a chart plotter, plus creature comforts like electric winches, a bimini, and a teak cockpit, all the bits that make sailing easier and more enjoyable. The sprayhood and lazy bag show an owner who understands what matters for actual sailing trips.

Budget-friendly value At this price point with a modest €2,000 deposit, Jalù offers genuine value if you're looking for a solid, unpretentious sailing boat rather than a shiny modern vessel. A 1996 build means she's mature, but the gear list suggests decent maintenance.

Age consideration The main caveat is her age, nearly 30 years old, so factor in that systems like the electrical and plumbing will need occasional attention during a week-long charter. Before booking, confirm with Sea Walker exactly what servicing she's had recently and what the actual condition of the hull and rigging is.

The marina & destination

Based at Punta Ala, in Punta Ala, Italy. Jalù is operated by Sea Walker.

Why this is a great starting point

Punta Ala on Tuscany's coast offers straightforward access to the Tuscan Archipelago, with Elba Island and the smaller islands of Giglio and Giannutri within a day's sail. Week 1 typically involves island-hopping south through protected anchorages with moderate summer winds from the northwest, giving new arrivals time to find their rhythm before longer passages. The marina itself provides good facilities and a sheltered base for those wanting to explore this historically rich stretch of coast without committing to the open Tyrrhenian Sea immediately.

Can Jalù be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Jalù 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 Jalù?

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.
