Pulpo

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. You can lower the deposit by adding the operator’s damage waiver.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~40 HP engines burn roughly 3.2 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 67 L ≈ €125 at €1.87/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who 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.

Skipper and hostess fees are paid at the base in cash, in euros only. Please bring the exact amount with you.

Our minimum booking is 6 nights, and shorter stays are not possible in high season. For anything shorter in other seasons, please contact us before you plan around a price.

A 30% advance payment is made by bank transfer to the operator's account. Once we receive it, we confirm the booking.

Marina Frapa sits at the entrance to Gruž Bay, right across from the main ferry port and just a short ride from Dubrovnik's UNESCO-listed old town — so you're genuinely close to everything. Read more →
