SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for families The Sun Odyssey 440 is a brilliant choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends—four cabins and eight berths mean everyone gets reasonable privacy without feeling cramped. At 13 metres, she's manageable for mixed-experience crews yet spacious enough that you won't feel like you're living in each other's pockets.

Well-equipped modern boat This 2022 model comes with genuinely useful kit: solar panels and an inverter mean less reliance on the engine, the bow thruster takes stress out of tight anchorages, and the lazy bag system makes sail handling straightforward even for less experienced sailors. The bimini and sprayhood are proper comfort features for longer passages or lazy days at anchor.

Solid value proposition At this specification and age, Aquilante represents fair value—you're getting a modern, proven design with plenty of creature comforts and practical features that justify the charter cost. The €3,500 deposit is reasonable and suggests a responsible operator.

One practical note The listing doesn't show the base location, so I can't advise on flight connections or transfer time from your nearest major airport—check that detail directly with MARINA'S SERVICE, as it'll affect your overall trip planning from the UK or mainland Europe.

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