Solid workhorse The Tarpon 42 is a practical motor boat that suits groups or families wanting hassle-free cruising without sailing skills, perfect if you want to relax rather than master the helm. With 4 cabins and 10 berths, it handles larger parties well, though sleeping arrangements will be cosy on a 12.9m hull.

Comfort essentials The bow thruster and swimming platform are genuinely useful features for navigating tight spaces and enjoying the water. Decent amenities like a fridge, electric toilet, and bimini cover make extended cruising manageable, though don't expect luxury, this is practical, not flashy.

Fair value proposition At a €2,000 deposit, the charter cost appears reasonable for a 4-cabin group boat, especially if you're splitting the fee across multiple cabins. You're paying for functionality and space rather than newness or high-end finishes.

Age consideration The 1993 build date means this vessel is over 30 years old, so expect some wear and occasional quirks, nothing alarming, but factor in that mechanicals and systems may require patience. Before booking, confirm with Canal Evasion that recent servicing records are solid and get clarity on what's included if anything needs attention during your charter.

The marina & destination

Based at Port de Plaisance de Mittersheim, in Mittersheim, France. 2401 is operated by Canal Evasion.

Why this is a great starting point

I don't have reliable details about Port de Plaisance de Mittersheim's location, facilities, or nearby cruising grounds in my current knowledge base. Rather than guess at geography or create details, I'd recommend verifying the marina's exact location and facilities directly, as this will help me write an accurate summary specific to your clients' needs. If you can confirm whether this is on an inland waterway system or coastal location, I can write proper copy about week 1 cruising options from there.

Can 2401 be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter 2401 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 2401?

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.

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