SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups This 13.4m catamaran sleeps up to 10 across six cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a longer voyage. The spacious layout typical of catamarans means everyone gets their own bunk without feeling cramped.

Solid practical setup Solar panels, autopilot, and a chart plotter in the cockpit show sensible provisioning for self-sufficient cruising in the Atlantic islands. The dinghy, bimini, and lazy jack are all genuinely useful for Cabo Verde's conditions, sun protection and tender access matter out there.

Watch the operator track record With only two reviews on file, Alboran Charter hasn't built a large reputation yet, so you're taking a small leap of faith here. That said, the 4/5 rating is encouraging, but I'd recommend asking them directly about recent maintenance and getting detailed condition photos before committing.

Decent value if well-maintained At €2,500 deposit for a 10-berth boat in a remote Atlantic location, the pricing looks reasonable for a 2006 vessel. Just confirm the exact weekly rate and what's included, wear-and-tear clauses matter more with an operator you haven't chartered from before.

The marina & destination

Based at Sal Harbour, in Palmeira, Cape Verde. Alboran Ron Punch (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.

Frequently asked questions
Can Alboran Ron Punch (Cabo Verde) be rented with or without a skipper?
Yes, Alboran Ron Punch can be chartered either bareboat (if you have the required qualifications) or with a professional skipper from Alboran Charter. A skipper is highly recommended for the Cape Verde islands if you're unfamiliar with the area, as conditions can be challenging.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Alboran Ron Punch (Cabo Verde)?
For a bareboat charter of this 13.4m catamaran, you'll typically need an International Certificate of Competence (ICC) or equivalent national sailing qualification. Alboran Charter will verify your credentials before confirming your booking.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter price typically includes the vessel, mooring or anchorage, and basic equipment. However, specifics vary, contact Alboran Charter directly to confirm what's covered, as some charters include provisioning, water, or fuel while others charge separately.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Beyond the charter fee, budget for fuel, provisions, local port fees, and potentially a skipper or crew if not included. Cape Verde operates in Cape Verdean Escudo (CVE), though euros are widely accepted, exchange rates and local service costs can vary.
How does the security deposit work for Alboran Ron Punch (Cabo Verde)?
Alboran Ron Punch requires a refundable security deposit of €2,500, typically charged to your credit card before departure. This is held against accidental damage and is fully refunded post-charter if the vessel is returned in its original condition.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms depend on Alboran Charter's policy and how far in advance you cancel. We recommend reviewing the specific terms when you book, and consider travel insurance that covers yacht charter cancellations for peace of mind given the long-haul travel involved.
Is Alboran Ron Punch (Cabo Verde) insured?
The vessel carries standard marine insurance through Alboran Charter. Your security deposit protects the operator; for personal coverage, we recommend arranging your own travel and equipment insurance before departure.
What documents do I need to bring?
Bring your passport (valid for at least 6 months), sailing qualifications (ICC or equivalent), and travel insurance documents. Check Cape Verde's current visa requirements for your nationality, many nationalities can obtain a visa on arrival, but it's worth confirming before you travel.
