Notes from the charter company
- ■ ABOUT S/Y “FREEDOM”
- "FREEDOM" is a Bavaria 44 featuring a timeless sailboat design and exceptional German craftsmanship
- fully rebuilt in 2022. The sailboat has 4 cabins and 2 heads
- and usually
- 6 people stay in 3 of the rooms. The fourth
- smallest cabin is used by the skipper. (Additional people can be accommodated by converting the main table in the saloon—this comes at an extra cost
- and you should be aware that the boat will feel quite full with this option.) FREEDOM can only be chartered with a skipper
- who is also the owner of the sailboat and knows the boat very well. This Bavaria model is one of the most solidly built and is literally a fundamental boat used in the rise of the Croatian yacht charter industry. The sailboat also has an air-conditioned front cabin
- ■ AVAILABILITY
- The sailboat is available for rentals starting on ANY number of days (1 day
- 2 days
- 3 days
- etc.) and on ANY start day—not just from Saturday to Saturday. This is a crucial difference between a sailboat-focused charter company like ours and regular charter companies
- which must follow the Saturday-to-Saturday model due to their larger
- more rigid maintenance and staffing structures
- ■ PRICE
- A great advantage is that the skipper cost is included in the price (the skipper also does not need food)
- and there is no transit log. The only things not included in the price are third-party costs such as fuel and yacht marinas. So
- even if at first the price may seem higher
- in the end
- it is actually lower compared to usual yacht charters that add many extra costs (like outboard motor
- passenger state taxes
- boat cleaning
- etc.)
- ■ WHAT IS INCLUDED AND NOT INCLUDED IN THE CRUISE PRICE?
- INCLUDED:
- - The price includes skipper
- - Use of snorkel equipment
- - Dinghy
- - Outboard motor
- - Bed linen
- - All local taxes
- - Final yacht cleaning
- NOT INCLUDED:
- - Mooring fees in marinas (125 EUR - 160 EUR per night)
- - Fuel (depends on wind conditions and selected cruising route)
- - Food
- drinks
- and drinking water
- - Towels
- - Water taxis (if needed)
- ■ ITINERARY
- Based on the number of days
- the skipper will suggest the most efficient cruise plans. Before the cruise starts
- the skipper will communicate with you to define the cruise plan
- ■ CHECK-IN/OUT
- Your embarkation time is 9:30 am on the first day of rental
- and disembarkation time is 6:00 pm on the last day of rental

Questions about Freedom
How can I cancel my reservation?
Contact our customer service at +386 40 873 520 or via email at info@skippercity.com. We will assist you immediately.
What is the security deposit?
The security deposit is a refundable amount the charter company holds during your charter to cover possible damage. You leave it at the base at check-in — usually as a credit-card pre-authorisation or in cash — and it is returned at check-out if the boat comes back undamaged.
What licences do I need to rent Freedom?
Freedom is only chartered with the charter company's own skipper, so you need no licence to book her.
What additional costs should I expect?
Obligatory extras are listed on this page and are paid before arrival or at the base, as marked. On top of the charter price, budget for mooring fees outside your home marina, fuel and provisioning. The refundable security deposit is separate and is returned after check-out.
When do I check in and check out?
Check-in for Freedom is from 10:00 on the day your charter starts, and check-out is by 09:00 on the day it ends. The charter company’s rule for this base: “Return on the evening before is desirable!”
Who operates Freedom?
Freedom is owned and operated by Seaboater, an independent charter company with 1 boat in our catalogue. We act as your charter agent: you book and pay through us, and Seaboater hands the boat over at the base.
