Perfect for larger groups With 5 cabins and 10 berths, this 2019 Sun Odyssey 490 is genuinely well-suited to families or friend groups of 8, 10 people who want comfortable shared cruising without feeling cramped.

Solid cruising setup The 15.1m length gives you a proper seagoing yacht rather than a weekend toy, and the inclusion of a bimini and sprayhood means you've got shade and weather protection sorted, essential for longer passages. The inverter and radio-CD player suggest basic modern comfort.

Strong operator credentials Boomerang's perfect 5-star rating (albeit from just 3 reviews) and the reasonable €4,500 deposit are encouraging signs; this suggests a well-maintained boat and straightforward charter terms.

Missing key details We don't have location data for the base, so we can't advise on airport logistics or flight connections for you, that matters when you're traveling internationally to reach the yacht. I'd recommend checking with Boomerang directly about base location, provisioning options, and whether the boat includes essentials like a tender or water toys, as these aren't listed here.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina di Portisco, in Portisco, Italy. Frida is operated by Boomerang.

Str. Panoramica Costa Smeralda Km0,100

Why this is a great starting point

Marina di Portisco sits on Sardinia's northeast coast and provides excellent access to the Maddalena archipelago, reachable in 15-20 nautical miles on a typical northwesterly breeze. Week 1 charters work well as sheltered day hops between granite-studded islands with good holding in sandy bays, or longer passages south to the Costa Smeralda if conditions favour. The marina itself offers full facilities and lies close enough to Porto Cervo for provisioning, making it a practical base for both relaxed cruising and more ambitious sailing.

Can Frida be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Frida 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 Frida?

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.
