Perfect for larger groups This 2018 Sun Odyssey 519 sleeps up to 12 across five cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to charter together without splitting boats. The teak deck and solid 2018 build give it a premium feel that justifies bringing a bigger crew.

Well-equipped for independence Solar panels, autopilot, and a chart plotter in the cockpit mean you're set for comfortable, self-sufficient cruising in the Atlantic islands. The sprayhood and bimini keep watch rotations pleasant, while the dinghy opens up anchorages beyond the main ports.

Reasonable value proposition At this size and specification, the €2,500 deposit suggests competitive weekly rates, you're getting serious cruising kit without paying superyacht premiums. The five-cabin layout maximizes sleeping capacity, which spreads costs nicely across a group.

Operator track record matters here Alboran Charter has only two reviews on record, so there's limited independent feedback on their maintenance standards or service quality. Before committing, I'd recommend asking directly about recent haul-outs, spare parts availability, and their support response time, especially important when you're flying 6+ hours to a remote Atlantic base.

The marina & destination

Based at Sal Harbour, in Palmeira, Cape Verde. Alboran Prosecco (Cabo Verde) is operated by Alboran Charter.

Why this is a great starting point

Sal Harbour in Palmeira gives you immediate access to the Cape Verde archipelago's northern islands, with Boa Vista, Maio, and Santo Antao all within 1-2 days sailing. Week one typically involves exploring the sheltered anchorages around Boa Vista and the tight island passages, where consistent northeast trade winds provide reliable sailing conditions. The marina works well for clients wanting to avoid the Atlantic crossing; you're positioned to cruise the volcanic landscapes and quiet bays of the northern group without committing to long ocean passages.

Can Alboran Prosecco (Cabo Verde) be rented with or without a skipper?

Alboran Prosecco can be chartered both bareboat (self-skippered) or with a professional skipper included. If you choose bareboat, you'll need to demonstrate relevant sailing experience; hiring a skipper is recommended if your group lacks Atlantic cruising experience, especially in Cape Verde waters.

What sailing licence do I need to charter Alboran Prosecco (Cabo Verde)?

For bareboat charter of this 5-cabin sailboat, you'll need a valid RYA Coastal Skipper, Yachtmaster, or equivalent international qualification. Alboran Charter will verify your credentials before handover; if your group lacks qualifications, you must book a professional skipper.

What's included in the charter price?

Typically included are the yacht, basic equipment, navigation systems, and insurance. Fuel, provisioning, local taxes, and mooring fees are usually additional, confirm the exact inclusions with Alboran Charter, as packages can vary for Cape Verde based charters.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Expect to pay for fuel, provisioning, mooring or anchorage fees, and any local maritime taxes when you collect Alboran Prosecco from Cape Verde. A skipper or crew, if hired separately, and any equipment extras (water sports gear, etc.) will also be additional.

How does the security deposit work for Alboran Prosecco (Cabo Verde)?

The refundable security deposit is €2,500, held by Alboran Charter to cover accidental damage or loss during your charter. It will be refunded within days of handback, provided the yacht is returned in agreed condition and any breakages documented during checkout.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms depend on how far in advance you cancel, typically there's a sliding scale of refunds. Contact Alboran Charter directly for their specific policy; booking insurance is highly recommended for long-haul international charters to Cape Verde.

Is Alboran Prosecco (Cabo Verde) insured?

Yes, the yacht carries standard charter liability and damage insurance, with your €2,500 deposit covering the excess. You're responsible for the excess amount on any claims; supplementary insurance can usually be purchased if you prefer lower excess.

What documents do I need to bring?

Bring your passport, valid sailing licence/RYA certificates, and travel insurance documents. You may also need a Schengen visa depending on nationality, plus vaccination records (check Cape Verde entry requirements); have photocopies stored separately as backup for travel emergencies.

What payment methods are accepted?

Most UK and European yacht charter operators accept bank transfers, credit cards, and increasingly PayPal. Confirm payment methods directly with Alboran Charter; bank transfer is typical for deposits and balance on booking confirmations.

We'll check live availability, apply any discounts, and come back within hours.
