Answers about the owned Freewave fleet, booking, costs and handover from Trogir. Prices refer to the 2027 season; your confirmed booking documents remain authoritative.
Where does a Freewave yacht charter in Croatia start?
Our charter base is near Trogir at Baotić marina Seget. Before travelling, confirm the exact meeting point and handover time in your booking documents.
Which boats are in the Freewave fleet for 2027?
The 2027 fleet comprises 24 owned boats: 22 monohull sailing yachts and two sailing catamarans. The catamarans are Lagoon 40 “Manu” and Excess 12 “Kiss me twice”. Equipment and availability vary by boat.
How many cabins does my crew need?
Choose according to the number of separate sleeping spaces you want. Freewave offers three- to five-cabin monohulls and four-cabin catamarans. Saloon berths differ from private cabins, so check the layout, berths and maximum occupancy on the boat page.
Can I request a yacht with a skipper?
Yes. Tell us in your initial enquiry that you would like a skipper. Availability, price and agreed services are confirmed for your specific booking.
Which documents matter for a bareboat charter?
For a bareboat charter, the appropriate boating and radio qualifications must be checked before booking. Our charter terms require at least one crew member with a valid boating certificate and at least one with a VHF licence. If unsure, send Freewave the specific details of your documents for review.
Is the published weekly rate the entire charter budget?
No. The weekly rate depends on the boat and dates. Allow for the applicable obligatory supplements, tourist tax, fuel and chosen extras as well. The 2027 pricelist and your booking confirmation specify the relevant amounts and services.
What is the difference between the deposit and deposit insurance?
The standard security deposit is refundable when the boat is returned without damage. For 2027 it is €1,000 for three-cabin monohulls, €1,500 for four cabins, €2,000 for five cabins and €2,500 for multihulls. Optional deposit insurance is a different service with its own conditions and exclusions; check the full PDF pricelist and your booking agreement.
Can a charter start on Wednesday?
The 2027 pricelist includes Wednesday-starting weekly charters for Bavaria 46 “Bardolino” and Bavaria 41 “Barbera”. Other boats follow their advertised schedules. Enquire about your preferred dates for the specific boat.
How should I compare a catamaran and a monohull?
A catamaran distributes cabins and living space between two hulls and has a greater beam. A monohull offers a different sailing experience and layout. Compare actual layouts, occupancy, total budget and your experience before deciding.
What should I include in my charter enquiry?
Include travel dates, crew size, cabin requirements, boat type or model and whether you want a skipper. Tell us if your dates are flexible. This helps Freewave check suitable boats and availability for your group.
