Yes — every boat on charter.boats is insured by its operator; we require it. The policy covers the vessel for fire, collision and third-party liability. For damage it doesn't cover, your liability is usually limited to the security deposit, except where the operator's terms say otherwise. Operator terms: The operator takes out compulsory insurance for the vessel at its own cost. This insurance does not cover persons on board or their personal belongings, so the operator recommends the guest arrange suitable insurance.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~12 HP engine burns roughly 1 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 21 L ≈ €39 at €1.87/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not personally — a skipper is included with this boat and holds the licence. Generally, though: At least one crew member must hold a recognised sailing licence (ICC or national equivalent) plus a VHF/SRC radio operator certificate, both checked on arrival.

Pets are only allowed with our prior consent, so please ask us before booking and we'll let you know.

Your charter area is the Croatian territorial sea. If you'd like to go beyond it, you need our written consent first.

The person steering must hold a valid sailing permit and have the necessary maritime and navigation knowledge. If you don't have enough knowledge, we can arrange a skipper at your cost. If you turn one down when it's needed, you can't leave port and the booking amount is kept.

Racing, professional passenger transport, towing (except in an emergency) and lending the boat to third parties are not allowed. Night sailing is only permitted in good visibility and safe weather. In bad weather you shouldn't leave a protected port, and on a sailboat you shouldn't leave one with sails up in wind force 7 or more.

Tell the base manager and us straight away so we can arrange help. If a fault stops you sailing and isn't your doing, we aim to repair it within about 24 hours or find you a replacement vessel.

May–October, with the most reliable maestral winds and warm seas in June–September; July–August are the hottest and busiest.
