Opal Adriatic

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. Operator terms: Agency maintains professional liability insurance and bail insurance at all times

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~1550 HP engine burn roughly 124 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 2604 L ≈ €4869 at €1.87/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not personally — a skipper comes 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 welcome only with our prior approval, and we ask that you take special care of them throughout the trip.

The charter generally includes about four hours of navigation per day; longer days can be arranged at the owner’s additional rate. Sailing normally takes place between sunrise and sunset, with night sailing only when conditions allow it safely.

You are welcome to share a route plan with the captain, who will do their best to follow it. All final decisions about navigation and safety rest with the captain, and sailing stays within Croatian territorial waters unless we approve a route outside them in writing.

The captain is responsible for the safety of the boat, crew and guests, and you agree to follow their safety instructions. Please also avoid prohibited activities such as smoking inside the boat, jumping in while underway, using the tender or water toys without the crew’s permission, or climbing the rigging.

Only the people on your guest list may board, up to the registered capacity, and names cannot be added later unless arranged with us. The captain may allow extra visitors aboard only while the boat is berthed in harbour.

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