The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Perfect for families This 2025 Bali 4.2 catamaran suits families or small groups wanting comfort without complexity , four cabins sleep eight, and the wide, stable platform means less seasickness and easier sailing for mixed ability crews. The generous outdoor living space with a barbecue grill and convertible table makes entertaining and dining al fresco genuinely enjoyable.
Smart modern touches You're getting a brand-new build with air conditioning, autopilot, and electric winches that take the physical grind out of sailing, plus a surprisingly sociable cockpit setup with speakers and cushions. The lazy jack (which simplifies mainsail handling) and solid generator power are genuinely thoughtful inclusions at this price point.
Strong value proposition At €4,520 per week from SeaStar Sailing , a highly-rated operator with 4.9 stars , this feels fair for a modern four-cabin cat with all the comfort kit already fitted. The €3,500 deposit is reasonable too, and you're chartering from an established, trusted company.
One realistic note The Bali 4.2 is a catamaran designed for laid-back cruising rather than spirited sailing, so if your crew craves responsive handling and tight manoeuvres, this won't thrill you. Otherwise, for a relaxed week with good company and minimal fuss, this boat delivers.

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. Swell is operated by SeaStar Sailing.
Poseidonos Avenue
Alimos Marina sits just south of Athens, offering straightforward access to the Saronic Gulf's island-hopping routes; week one typically involves sailing to nearby Aegina, Poros, and Hydra, with predictable northerly winds in summer making these 15-30 nautical mile passages reliable for mixed-ability crews. The protected anchorages and short hops suit charter clients recovering from long-haul flights, while the marina's proximity to Athens airport (30 minutes by car) minimizes transfer time. Alimos itself has full facilities and is a logical base for exploring the sheltered Saronic islands before pushing further south toward the Peloponnese if conditions allow.
