About Bareboat Motor Yacht Prestige 500 Fly
The Jeanneau Prestige 500 Fly combines elegant proportions with practical layout, ideal for those seeking independent yacht management across the Tyrrhenian Sea. This three-cabin motor yacht accommodates up to six guests in considered comfort, with a design philosophy that prioritises clean lines and uncluttered spaces. The main saloon flows seamlessly between interior and exterior zones, creating an intuitive living environment for week-long cruising.
Accommodation spans three well-proportioned cabins: a generous master suite, a convertible double berth, and a twin cabin, each with quality linens and thoughtful storage. An additional crew cabin is available should you engage a professional skipper to navigate the more technical anchorages. The flybridge emerges as the social heart of the yacht, where afternoon aperitifs and sunset dinners feel effortless against Mediterranean light, whilst the foredeck provides sun lounging space sheltered from wind.
Bareboat operation places you in command of your own itinerary. Navigate the granite cliffs of Bonifacio, the sheltered inlets of Porto Cervo, or the quieter moorings near Cannigione without schedule constraints. Italian VAT is included in charter fees; operational expenses are estimated at 30% of the base charter cost.

The Charter Experience
Northern Sardinia and adjacent Corsican waters reward unhurried exploration. Base yourself in Porto Cervo's protected harbour for easy access to the Emerald Coast's most coveted anchorages, or venture westward to Bonifacio's dramatic limestone straits. The shallow draft permits entry to smaller coves inaccessible to larger vessels. Early morning departures reveal secluded beaches before day-charter crowds; evening returns to working harbours like Portisco offer fresh seafood and local Vermentino wine. Self-catering appeals to those who value autonomy; provisioning at local markets in Palau or Porto Cervo connects you directly to Sardinian larders.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week traces the Emerald Coast from Palau through Porto Cervo and Cannigione before crossing to Bonifacio's UNESCO-listed old town and weathered limestone formations. Intermediate days permit leisurely exploration of islets and granite-fringed anchorages. Return legs favour westerly routes via smaller inhabited islands, where provisions and village restaurants reward detours.
