Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know About Chartering in Sardinia with Marefun
1. Where is the meeting point for the charter?
You can start at our office at Via dei Marinai 1, Golfo Aranci. Alternatively, we can pick you up anywhere along the North-East coast (including your hotel private jetty or beach club) for maximum convenience.
2. What creates the "Marefun" experience?
We operate a curated fleet of design icons: the Vanquish VQ40 (aluminum driver’s boat), the elegant VanDutch 55, and the powerful SACS Strider 15. These boats offer unmatched style and stability compared to standard rental boats.
3. Do you really own the boats?
Yes. Unlike many charter websites that act as brokers for other people's boats, Marefun owns its entire fleet. This allows us to guarantee the quality, safety, and availability of every yacht we charter.
4. Is fuel included in the price?
No, fuel is charged based on consumption at the end of the day. This is standard for yacht charters. We can provide an estimate based on your planned itinerary (e.g., Costa Smeralda vs. Tavolara).
5. Do I need a boat license?
No. All our premium charters come with a professional, multilingual skipper who handles navigation and safety, so you can relax.
6. What is included in the charter price?
The price includes the yacht, skipper, towels, soft drinks, 1-2 bottles of white wine, snacks, fresh fruits, and local delicacies. Our signature water toys (Seabob and SUP) are also included. Fuel and optional heavy catering are extra.
7. What water toys are available?
We include a Seabob F5 S (high-speed underwater scooter) and a Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) on most premium charters for free.
