SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Marianna suits families and friend groups of up to 8 looking for affordable, comfortable sailing without breaking the bank. At 11 metres with three cabins, you've got proper sleeping space rather than bunking everyone in.

Smart modern touches This Bavaria punches above its weight for a 2004 build, solar panels, autopilot, and a chart plotter mean less faff on longer passages, while air-con and heating keep everyone happy whatever the season. The teak cockpit and bimini are genuine comfort upgrades for time spent above deck.

Excellent value proposition At €1,480 per week with a modest €1,500 deposit, you're getting a well-equipped cruiser that won't demand premium pricing. For international crews arriving from Europe or beyond, the per-person cost across 6, 8 people becomes genuinely competitive.

One realistic note We don't have the base location details, so check airport proximity and transfer logistics carefully before booking, that can easily add €100, 200 and a few hours to your journey if the base is remote. Once you're there, this boat delivers solid, uncomplicated sailing.

The marina & destination

Based at Nydri Port, in Nydri, Greece. Marianna is operated by Amfitriti Discovery .

Why this is a great starting point

Nydri Port sits on Lefkada's east coast and offers immediate access to the Ionian Islands' most sheltered cruising grounds, with the string of islands running south (Meganisi, Kalamos, Kastos) easily reached in light afternoon winds. Week 1 typically involves island-hopping between these protected anchorages and exploring the narrow channels around Meganisi, which suit newer sailors and those avoiding heavy swell. The port itself is well-equipped with fuel and provisioning, making it practical for longer charters heading further south towards Kefalonia or Ithaca by mid-week.

Frequently asked questions
Can Marianna be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Marianna bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Marianna?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
