Dolce far niente

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 Vessel is insured under the Operator's insurance company's conditions. Insured damage that is not reported immediately to the insurer is not recognised, and the Charterer is then personally liable for the full damage.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~320 HP engines burn roughly 25.6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 538 L ≈ €1006 at €1.87/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not personally — this boat requires a skipper, 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.

Sorry, no. Pets of any kind, including dogs, cats and birds, are not allowed aboard.

Yes. You can't sublet or lend the boat, enter regattas or races, use it commercially (including fishing for profit or sailing school), charge others for transport, or tow another vessel. You also need to keep out of restricted areas.

You need to stay within Croatian territorial waters. Going anywhere else requires a written permit from the operator.

You shouldn't leave port or anchorage if the wind is or is forecast to be over Beaufort 7 (about 30 knots), if visibility is poor, or if harbour authorities have banned sailing. We ask you to sail only in safe weather conditions.

Tell us immediately and, after an accident, record what happened and get a written certificate from a harbour master, physician or official. Get our consent before arranging any repair. Repairs for normal wear and tear are refunded against receipts at the end of the charter.

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