New main sail and genoa 2024

Perfect for families The Alkyoni suits groups of up to seven looking for a comfortable, well-equipped cruiser in Greek waters. Three cabins give everyone reasonable privacy, and the 2018 build means systems are modern and reliable without feeling brand-new fragile.

Smart practical touches Solar panels, bow thruster, and an inverter show the owner has thought about cruising comfort, you'll have decent power for fridges and navigation without constantly running the engine, and that thruster makes tight anchorages genuinely easier. The dinghy and snorkeling kit are genuine bonuses for exploring Greek islands properly.

Solid value proposition At 12.3 metres, you get decent space without the crew fatigue of a larger boat, and a €2,500 deposit is reasonable and suggests transparent pricing. Bavaria's 41 Cruiser is a proven design that holds its own for mid-range Mediterranean sailing.

One honest note Rhodes-based charters mean a long-haul flight from North America or northern Europe, factor in at least 4, 5 hours from major hubs plus ground transfers, so you'll want a week minimum to justify the journey. The listing lacks specific pricing and availability details, so contact Yachtcharter-Rhodes directly before committing.

The marina & destination

Based at Rhodes New Marina, in Rhodes, Greece. Alkyoni is operated by Yachtcharter-Rhodes.

Why this is a great starting point

Rhodes New Marina sits at the eastern edge of the Dodecanese islands, offering direct access to the Turkish coast and the protected waters of the nearby Symi and Tilos. Week 1 typically involves sailing north to island-hop through Symi, Nimos, and Alimia, or southwest toward Chalki and the Datça Peninsula; winds favour a mix of morning breezes and reliable afternoon northerlies. The marina itself is well-equipped with modern facilities and sits close enough to Rhodes Town for provisioning, making it a solid operational base for first-time visitors to Greek island sailing.

Can Alkyoni be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Alkyoni 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 Alkyoni?

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.
