SailChecker Expert View

Solid Mid-Range Cruiser The Sun Odyssey 45 is a dependable, well-equipped sailing yacht that punches above its weight for families or small groups of friends wanting a genuine sailing experience without complications. Built in 2005, she's proven her seaworthiness over nearly two decades, and the spec here includes thoughtful cruising kit like solar panels, autopilot, and snorkeling gear.

Well-Stocked For Comfort Four cabins sleeping eight works well for two couples or a family plus friends, and you're getting essentials that matter: chart plotter for navigation, bimini and sprayhood for weather protection, dinghy for exploring, and a decent refrigerator so provisions don't spoil. Solar panels are a nice touch—they'll help keep battery costs manageable on longer passages.

Honest Value Question A €2,500 deposit is reasonable, but without seeing the weekly charter rate, it's hard to judge whether Safina offers true value compared to newer Sun Odyssey models or similar-sized boats in the same region. Yildiz Yachting's 5/5 rating is promising, though note it's based on just one review—worth asking them directly about recent client feedback.

Age Consideration At 19 years old, she's not ancient by sailing standards, but do confirm the condition of rigging, engine hours, and when the hull was last professionally surveyed before committing. Ask Yildiz for a detailed pre

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