Bareboat - I have all the necessary certificates, but am repeatedly getting bogged down on dozens of different websites,all offering pretty much the same thing. Looking for some real world experience to narrow down choices a little

really ?

Last choice I would turn to.
OP, its a shame you just missed LIBS.

Tried Nautilus or COSMOS or BareboatSailing.com ?
or one that is different that does the leg work for you and found me a good independent and cracking boat in Greece :

We spent a week out of Murter back in Sep 2008 on a bareboat Bavaria 31. Sailed mainly around the Kornati Islands and made it as far South as Trogir. Stayed mostly in marinas - charges were on par with the Solent, but the marinas were better. Anchored out for two nights - no charges to pay and a rather nice experience. Another great way to save on marina charges is to anchor in front of the many island restaurants. As long as you eat there - and the seafood is amazing - anchoring is free. We had a great time and I would recommend it to anyone. Chartered the boat from a Croatian web-site - very helpful and up-front about costs and charges. The boat was also 2 months old, which was a bonus.

I started a thread long time ago on Bareboat / Flot chartering : Who is on a Sailing Holiday....

I think a few on the thread had done Croatia.
I am being pestered by my usual crew to try there, but I keep hearing things to put me off.

(paying for all anchorages. Piss take pricing. ...... )
In think things may have changed , certainly some friends were there about 3 years ago and said exactly that , rip of prices in Bars and Restaurants and being rinsed on mooring fees , however another group were there early last year and said they got great value for money.....

I may well have a boat available for charter in Croatia in a month or two....

Well, it might pay for the transport. wink
