Don Pepe

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. You're only responsible for damage it doesn't cover, and that's capped at the security deposit.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~90 HP engine burn roughly 7.2 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 151 L ≈ €294 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not for this boat — the operator charters it without a licence requirement. Generally, though: The skipper needs a valid sailing licence and VHF certificate, ideally issued by their country of residence (an ICC is widely accepted).

Tucked between Punta Ristola and Punta Meliso — the very tip of the Apulian heel — this marina sits at one of Italy's most dramatic land's-end locations where the Adriatic and Ionian seas meet. Read more →
