“Exit” Enters the Charter Scene

• By Yachting Staff
• July 2, 2024

IYC has welcomed the 88-foot Sunseeker Exit to the charter market, with bookings available this summer in Croatia, Montenegro and Slovenia.

Exit is a 2023 build that was refitted this year, with the owners adding new indoor and outdoor lighting that lets guests customize the onboard experience to match their personal preferences and moods on any given day. The refit also included the installation of new carpeting, wallpaper and artwork throughout the yacht.

The interior is described as contemporary and stylish, with wide windows in the main salon that allow guests panoramic views of the surroundings. According to the team at IYC, the way that Sunseeker designed Exit makes the yacht seem much larger than it is.

Accommodations are for a maximum of 10 guests in four staterooms. In an unusual outfitting twist, the door for the master stateroom is custom made so that the space can connect with the starboard guest stateroom, or be removed to create a unified space.

Separate quarters accommodate four crew, which is the yacht’s standard complement for charters.

Exterior guest spaces include the flybridge, which has sunbathing areas and alfresco dining. Exit also has shaded areas for outdoor guest relaxation. A hot tub is among the amenities, with a large swim platform for access to the water.

Equipment on Exit includes zero-speed stabilizers to enhance guest comfort at anchor. According to IYC, the yacht’s top speed is 26 knots with a cruising speed of 20 knots, making it a good choice for charter clients who want to spend more time in destinations and less time traveling between them.

Charter clients can pay for this booking in cryptocurrency: IYC recently announced a partnership with Bitcashier to allow the use of cryptocurrency in yacht sale and charter transactions. The system includes the use of bitcoin along with a secure payment portal, locking in the cryptocurrency price at the moment of the transaction. Bitcashier then converts the cryptocurrency into the required fiat currency, completing the transaction. According to Raphael Sauleau, the CEO of IYC: “We have carefully chosen this esteemed platform as our ally in cryptocurrency transactions, confident in their expertise and integrity. As yachting embraces new waves of clients attuned to the dynamics of a rapidly changing world, our partnership with Bitcashier symbolizes our confidence in adapting to this evolving landscape.”

Yes, it's always a good idea to have insurance when you hire a yacht or boat. Insurance can protect you against unexpected expenses or damages that may occur during your charter, such as damage to the yacht, injury to passengers, or loss of personal belongings. SEARADAR offers its own insurance product, the free deposit pack, which allows you to insure 100% of the deposit. This provides an extra layer of protection and peace of mind during your charter.

The qualifications you need to hire a boat or yacht will depend on the country and region where you plan to sail. In Croatia, for example, you are required by law to have a valid sailing license or certificate to operate a yacht or boat. The type of license or certificate you need will depend on the size and type of vessel you plan to operate. If you have a valid sailing license or certificate from your home country, it may be recognized in Croatia. If you don't have a sailing license or certificate, you can hire a skipper to handle the yacht for you.

If your yacht breaks down during your charter, the first thing you should do is to inform us as soon as possible. We will provide you with instructions on what to do next and may send a technician to fix the problem or provide you with a replacement yacht, depending on the severity of the issue.

When hiring a yacht, there are several important factors to consider to ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable experience. Here are some things to keep in mind: Size and Type of Yacht: Consider the size and type of yacht that will best suit your needs. Factors to consider include the number of people in your party, your budget, and your itinerary. Crew: Determine whether you need a crew for your yacht charter. If you are an experienced sailor, you may be able to charter a yacht without a crew. However, if you are new to sailing or want to relax and enjoy the trip, a crewed yacht may be a better option. Itinerary: Plan your itinerary in advance to ensure that you visit the destinations you want to see. Research the area and check the availability of mooring spaces and marinas. Season and Weather: Consider the season and weather when planning your trip. Summer is the most popular season for yacht charter in many destinations, but it may be crowded and more expensive. Be aware of weather conditions and avoid sailing in bad weather. Budget: Set a budget for your yacht charter and be aware of additional costs, such as fuel, mooring fees, and food and drink expenses. Choose a yacht that fits within your budget and consider booking in advance to get the best deals. Safety: Make sure that the yacht you hire is properly equipped with safety equipment, such as life jackets, flares, and a first aid kit. Be aware of safety regulations and follow the rules of the sea.

Yes, indicate your request in the comments to the order, and we will give you a deferred payment by placing the yacht on reserve for you.

Yacht charters are available for any period. But there are generally accepted rules. For example, sailing yachts are most often rented weekly: Saturday to Saturday. You can charter for 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, etc.

You can rent a yacht with a captain who will take care of all the issues related to the yacht's management. Simply choose this option in the extras. All you need to do is get with your friends together, bring all the essentials and embark on an exciting yacht trip! It's easier than you think, even if it's the first charter you've ever been on!

Our services are absolutely free for you. We don't charge any commissions or extra fees to our customers.

There are several reasons why you should consider booking a yacht with SEARADAR: Over 500 satisfied customers worldwide: SEARADAR has a proven track record of providing high-quality yacht charter services, with many satisfied customers from around the world. Modern, high-tech startup: SEARADAR was founded in 2017 and has since grown into a modern, high-tech startup.

This allows us to provide personalized service and advice to our customers. Exclusive agreements: We work with practically all the world's charter companies and have exclusive agreements and conditions with many of them. This means we can offer our customers the best selection of yachts at the most competitive prices. Rigorous selection process: During the selection process, we analyze over 30,000 boats from all available market databases, calculate quality metrics, and check yacht availability in options.

This provides peace of mind and protects you against any unexpected expenses or damages.

The cost of renting a sailboat or catamaran in Croatia can vary widely depending on factors such as the type and size of the vessel, the season, the duration of the rental, and the location of the rental. Generally speaking, the cost of renting a sailboat in Croatia can range from around 1,500 to 4,000 euros per week, while the cost of renting a catamaran can range from around 3,000 to 10,000 euros per week. It's important to note that these prices are for the rental of the vessel only and do not include additional costs such as fuel, mooring fees, and provisions.

Whether or not you need a visa to visit Croatia depends on your nationality and the purpose of your visit. Citizens of the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries, as well as Switzerland, do not need a visa to enter Croatia, and can stay for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Citizens of some non-EU/EEA countries, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, can also enter Croatia without a visa for up to 90 days within a 180-day period, for purposes of tourism or business. However, citizens of some non-EU/EEA countries do need a visa to enter Croatia, even for short stays. You can check the visa requirements for your country on the Croatian Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs website or contact the nearest Croatian embassy or consulate for more information. It's important to note that all travelers to Croatia must have a valid passport or other travel document, and may also need to provide proof of sufficient funds for their stay and a return ticket or onward travel itinerary.

Yes, it is standard practice to pay a deposit when hiring a yacht in Croatia. The deposit serves as a security deposit and is designed to cover any damages that may occur to the yacht during your rental period. The amount of the deposit can vary depending on the size and type of yacht, but is typically around 30-50% of the total rental cost. The deposit is usually paid when you sign the rental contract and is refunded at the end of the rental period, provided there are no damages or losses to the yacht. It's important to carefully read and understand the terms of the rental contract before signing, including the deposit amount, refund policies, and any other fees or charges that may apply.

Free Deposit Pack

With FDP (Free Deposit Pack), you have the chance to avoid a full security deposit and lock in your funds. Just pay 20% upfront (non-refundable), and experience a hassle-free journey. * The price of the FDP rises to 25% if booked less than 30 days before the charter.

Affordable Island-Hopping in Croatia? What Could Go Wrong?

A 30-percent-off Black Friday sale on a cruise aboard a yacht meant off-season sailing and being prepared for the unexpected.

By Elaine Glusac

Elaine Glusac is the Frugal Traveler columnist, focusing on budget-friendly tips and journeys.

As Croatians tell the story , the Greek hero Odysseus was shipwrecked and held captive on the Croatian island of Mljet. Visiting in May, I and six other sailors embraced the myth when the motor on our 54-foot yacht failed.

“Remember, Odysseus spent seven years on Mljet,” said Ivan Ljubovic, our captain. “We can do two nights.”

In the scheme of things, the clogged fuel filter that impeded our progress on a seven-night, island-hopping cruise from Split to Dubrovnik on a yacht — which the passengers helped sail — was minor. Though an engine, even on a sailboat, is vital for docking and sticking to schedules on becalmed days, most of my shipmates agreed that getting waylaid in a village with Roman ruins on a turquoise bay was an acceptable fate.

I had been resigned to what were, in my mind, worse inconveniences when I had signed up for the trip last November. Then, the tour operator G Adventures had put several trips on sale over the Black Friday weekend. Its best deals were in the off-season, which meant potentially chilly weather and closed restaurants and attractions. But leaving in late April for seven nights of island hopping at roughly $1,300 — after a 30 percent discount — was too tempting to pass up.

My cousin Kim agreed and we made plans to pack rain gear and meet in Split to test the budget waters.

‘Everything between is an adventure’

Little about the itinerary was published pre-departure and none of it was firm.

“Split and Dubrovnik are fixed,” said the captain, who would pilot the ship solo and double as our guide, on our first day. “Everything between is an adventure.”

It started with the Sauturnes, a handsome Kufner yacht with four snug guest cabins, four economical bathrooms where the retractable faucet doubled as a shower spigot, and a spacious galley. Our “crew,” a mix of Australians and Americans ranging from 18 to 75 — all of whom had also jumped on the promotional pricing — spent most of the time atop the boat, where foam mattresses invited sunbathing and a cockpit awning provided shade.

The weather, which turned out to be sunny and comfortably cool, was not our greatest concern. The G Adventures website had mentioned well-known islands, including beachy Brac and Vis , which played a convincing Greek idyll in the movie “Mamma Mia 2.” But since many places would be closed in the shoulder season, we would proceed, according to the captain, based on the dictates of the weather and conditions on shore.

Meals were not included, which meant finding open restaurants was critical. For shipboard breakfasts and lunches, we each chipped in 50 euros (about $54) for communal groceries, which we shopped for at local markets. At night, we would dine at restaurants; G Adventures advised budgeting $250 to $325 for the week, which was accurate, though we often splurged on Croatian wine (a carafe of house red averaged $15).

Small ports

After the frenzy of grocery shopping and moving into the bunk-bedded cabin Kim and I shared, we experienced the Zen of sailing as the ship set off on a sunny morning for 43-mile-long Hvar , the longest and purportedly sunniest island in Croatia.

Neighboring islands drifted past as the wind patterned the sea in shifting ripples and ruffles. A flock of shearwaters soared by at eye level.

Within a few hours, the ridgelines of steep Hvar appeared, revealing terraced lavender fields and olive orchards. Motoring down a long, narrow inlet, we arrived in Stari Grad , a village of stone homes with terra cotta roof tiles, as travelers had since 384 B.C., when Greek sailors from the island of Paros settled here.

Our mooring provided a front-row view of fishing boats and cafes animating the waterfront. Stari Grad’s attractions, including the Greek ruins of Faros and a 17th-century Venetian cathedral, had yet to open for the season, but we relished exploring the old quarter’s narrow lanes and deserted plazas.

From the waterfront, an aerobic 20-minute hike up a steep hill crowned by a giant white cross offered views over Stari Grad and the plains beyond, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of fourth-century agricultural fields, with stone walls circumscribing grapevines and olive orchards.

That evening, we visited them to reach Konoba Kokot , a farm restaurant that specializes in “peka,” a kind of barbecue in which meat cooks under an iron lid piled with hot coals. The family that runs it opened in the preseason, welcoming us with bracing shots of rakija, a local herbal liquor. At a long table under an arbor, we gorged on homemade goat cheese, wild boar pate and, from the hearth, roast lamb, veal and octopus with limitless jugs of red and white wine for 35 euros a person.

Starry nights

Small ships are unmatched at getting into small ports, but a yacht trip is also a little like camping, starting most mornings with D.I.Y. instant coffee. Marinas offered free bathhouses with showers.

Cool temperatures apparently deterred the celebrity-filled mega yachts, which are known to anchor in the town of Hvar on the south shore of Hvar island. Our captain declared it the “Mykonos of Croatia” as we motored by the port bustling with visitors carrying shopping bags and cones of gelato.

With clear weather in the forecast, we moored in an undeveloped cove east of town. The mooring belonged to the owners of Moli Onte restaurant, who ferried us to land on a motorized dingy, allowing us enough time before dinner to visit the fortress above Hvar and have an Ozujsko beer on St. Stephens Square, the largest in the region of Dalmatia.

Back on board, with no artificial light to wash out the night sky, we hit the upper deck for stargazing. As my shipmates peeled off to bed, I grabbed a blanket and beanie and bedded down under the stars for the evolving show, periodically waking to catch the drama of the moon rising, reflected in the still water.

Little Dubrovnik

Fingers of gray rock reached down to meet sloping vineyards along Hvar’s south coast as we departed for its neighbor, Korcula. On our longest day of sailing, five hours, I welcomed the chance to play first mate, manning the lines on the jib sail.

To break up the trip, Captain Ljubovic navigated to a quiet cove off the Peljesac Peninsula where the Caribbean-blue waters, cloudless sky and sandy bottom convinced us to jump in despite numbing sea temperatures.

Fifteenth-century walls ring the historic center of Korcula, earning it the nickname “Little Dubrovnik.” Past the stone gates carved with a winged lion representing the empire of Venice, which controlled much of the Adriatic after the 13th century, narrow alleys led to ornate churches and mansions. There was no better history trip than getting lost in the web of pedestrian lanes. Or so we told ourselves as we passed the purported home of Marco Polo, still closed preseason.

Along the seafront walls, restaurants served pizza and seafood under lights strung in the pines and we caught sunset from a former turret, now converted into Massimo Cocktail Bar , which requires patrons to climb a ladder to the rooftop, a caution against second rounds.

The most romantic port of the trip was also the rowdiest, at least in the marina, which was hosting a Polish sailing regatta. When I headed for the showers at 6 a.m. the next morning, I found a group still cheerfully dancing atop a yacht littered in empty booze bottles and crushed potato chips.

Marooned on Mljet

We left Korcula on strong 20-knot “jugo” or south winds and Captain Ljubovic unleashed the sails, saying “You paid for a sailing vacation, not a motorboat.”

As we tacked back and forth toward Mljet , the boat heeled at a queasy angle and we took face shots of ocean spray.

On Mljet, where the western end of the island is home to Mljet National Park , we rented bikes (10 euros) to ride a lung-busting route over the park’s mountain spine. On the other side, we cycled around a pair of inland lakes and took a boat trip to a 12th-century monastery built on an island in one of them (park admission, 15 euros).

Docked in the still sleepy town of Polace, we heard tales of high season, when up to 100 yachts anchor in the bay and members of the band U2 were once seen biking in the park. After a brief shower, the town glimmered at sunset and the restaurant Stella Maris welcomed us with grilled sea bass (25 euros) and prawns (20 euros).

“I’m so glad I chose this time, because I don’t do crowds,” said my shipmate Nova Hey, 46, of Sydney, who was traveling with her 18-year-old daughter.

In the morning, I had the trail to the peak of Montokuc to myself. The roughly three-mile round-trip hike reached one of the highest points on the island, a rocky knob with stunning panoramas shared by a family of feral goats.

Not long thereafter, the Sauternes’ engine refused to turn over, stranding us in a national park on a remote island with no mechanics.

Teeming Dubrovnik

The next morning, Captain Ljubovic jimmied a fix but it didn’t last long and the engine died again, this time just opposite a cave on Mljet that we joked had to be the refuge of Odysseus.

After a morning of light sailing, a mechanic from the mainland arrived by speedboat and within an hour we were motoring toward the Franjo Tudman Bridge that spans the inlet to the Dubrovnik marina where hot showers awaited.

“Dubrovnik is the most expensive city in Croatia,” said Captain Ljubovic as we spent the last of our pooled money, 70 euros, hiring a taxi van to get us to and from the walled heart of the ancient city about 15 minutes away.

With two large cruise ships in port, Dubrovnik was teeming with visitors and the price to climb the stone walls that encircle the city was a sticker-shocking 35 euros. (In the ensuing two days Kim and I would spend post-cruise in the city, we bought the more comprehensive Dubrovnik Pass for 35 euros that included admission to the walls as well as several museums and public bus transportation.)

On our final evening, we measured the lack of crowds versus closed museums; perfect hiking weather versus swim-inviting water; ample dock space versus more restaurant choices — and felt we’d come out ahead sailing in the bargain season.
