Perfect for groups This Bavaria 46 offers excellent sleeping capacity with four cabins and eight berths, making it ideal for families or friends looking to share costs on a week-long sailing holiday. At €2,125 per week, you're splitting the charter fee across multiple people, which represents solid value for a mid-sized cruiser.

Well-equipped cruiser She's fitted with the essentials for comfortable cruising: bow thruster for easier berthing, heating for shoulder-season trips, and a proper galley with fridge. The teak cockpit and deck add a touch of class, while the dinghy means you can explore anchorages and beach clubs without relying on marina facilities every night.

Honest value At 19 years old, this boat is still a capable, proven platform, Bavaria builds solid cruisers. However, you're paying modest money for a boat of that age, so don't expect cutting-edge systems or the latest navigation tech. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable for a vessel this size.

One heads-up The operator listing shows only one review (albeit a five-star one), so there's limited feedback to assess their service reliability or responsiveness. Before booking, it's worth checking current ratings and asking directly about their handover process, especially if you're flying in from abroad and need smooth logistics on arrival day.

The marina & destination

Based at Port of Volos, in Volos, Greece. Aegle is operated by Enjoy Sailing.

Why this is a great starting point

Volos sits at the gateway to the Sporades islands, making it ideal for week-one cruising to Skiathos, Skopelos, and Alonissos with consistent northerly winds; the crossing to these islands typically takes 4-8 hours depending on your chosen anchorage. The marina offers good facilities and the Pelion peninsula provides a scenic backdrop, though expect the meltemi wind to strengthen as the season progresses. From here you can also explore the quieter Evia coast to the south or venture north towards Thassos if conditions allow, giving you flexibility for a relaxed first week of chartering.

Can Aegle be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Aegle 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 Aegle?

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.
