Solid midsize cruiser The Sun Odyssey 42 i is a well-proven design that suits families and small groups wanting a comfortable, manageable boat without the complexity of a larger vessel. With three cabins sleeping eight, Posidonia punches above her weight for space and livability on a 13-metre hull.

Thoughtful spec sheet This boat ticks the boxes that matter: bow thruster and hydraulic gangway make handling stress-free, solar panels keep you self-sufficient, and the teak cockpit with bimini, sprayhood, and cushions create a genuinely pleasant outdoor living space. The chart plotter in the cockpit is genuinely handy for navigation without ducking below.

Fair value proposition At 2009 vintage with a modest €2,000 deposit, Posidonia appears reasonably priced for her spec and cabin count—though without the charter base location visible, it's hard to judge regional positioning. If she's based somewhere with direct flights from the US or UK (Mediterranean, Canaries, Caribbean), the package makes sense for a week's bareboat escape.

Age consideration At 15 years old, the boat isn't ancient, but you'll want to confirm recent surveys and whether major systems—engine, alternator, electronics—have been refreshed. A thorough pre-charter walkthrough with 4S Sailing is worth your time to avoid surprises mid-week.

Can Posidonia be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Posidonia 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 Posidonia?

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.
