SailChecker Expert View
Great for groups This 12-metre Y40 is a solid four-cabin cruiser that sleeps eight comfortably, making it excellent for two couples or a small family wanting proper private cabins rather than squeezing into a smaller boat. At this size and spec, you're getting decent bang for your buck in terms of sleeping arrangements.
Well-equipped cruiser The kit list is genuinely useful: bow thruster and autopilot take the stress out of tight anchorages and longer passages, while solar panels plus heating suggest the owners understand year-round comfort. Chart plotter, spinnaker, and sprayhood mean you're ready for most conditions without scrambling for extras.
Fair value proposition At around €2,159 per week with a modest €1,300 deposit, this represents reasonable value for a four-cabin boat, you're not paying premium rates for a flashy newer vessel, but you're getting a properly maintained cruiser with the essentials covered. The 2008 vintage is honest rather than cutting-edge.
One realistic note The operator listing shows no location data, which is unusual, before booking, confirm where the base actually is (Adriatic region, presumably, given the operator name) and factor in your international travel time and airport transfers accordingly. Contact Adria Service Yachting directly to nail down exact logistics from your nearest major airport.

The marina & destination
Based at Marina Izola, in Izola, Slovenia. Pia is operated by Adria Service Yachting.
Tomaziceva 4a
Marina Izola sits on Slovenia's only coastline, offering quick access to the Istrian Peninsula and northern Adriatic cruising grounds. Week 1 typically involves exploring the dramatic limestone cliffs and sheltered anchorages around Rovinj and Porec in Croatia, with steady northeasterly bura winds providing reliable sailing conditions. The shallow, protected waters suit boats comfortable with variable depths, and the short hop south means you spend minimal transit time and maximum time exploring the medieval hilltop towns and pine-fringed coves of the upper Adriatic.
