A baseline estimate for Checkmate: our standard planning assumptions — 21 charter weeks at 1.30% of her price per week, 35% management fee, 7.85% owner-borne costs — applied to her asking price. Her personal feasibility study replaces these with her real charter rates, costs and VAT treatment.
The arithmetic: kept private − € 28.182 out of pocket · in charter management + € 35.523 — the difference, rounded, is the figure above. Berth, insurance and upkeep are owed either way; the season pays them while you are not on board.
Baseline estimate using our standard planning assumptions, not this yacht's measured performance — actual results vary with season, occupancy, personal-use weeks and market conditions. The full input VAT refund on purchase via a Croatian d.o.o. is additional and modelled separately in the full feasibility study. This is not a financial projection or guarantee. How we calculate these.
The full picture for Checkmate — charter income, operating costs, financing on your terms, VAT recovery and exit value — comes in a per-yacht feasibility study. Prefer to talk it through first? We're glad to, and a sea trial from Split can be arranged when you're ready to inspect.
