What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for couples and small groups. The Sofia suits 2, 6 people looking for a comfortable, modern sailing experience without breaking the bank. Three cabins with six berths give everyone reasonable privacy on a week-long charter.
Well-equipped and thoughtful. Solar panels, electric toilet, a swimming platform, and bimini top show this 2022 Bavaria has been set up with real cruising comfort in mind. The sprayhood is a nice touch for day sailing in less-than-perfect weather.
Excellent value proposition. At €3,233 per week plus a modest €2,500 deposit, you're getting a nearly-new, fully-featured boat at a fair market rate. That works out to roughly €540 per person per week for a group of six, hard to beat.
One practical note. The operator (Tsirigotis) shows only one review at 4/5 stars, so there's limited public feedback to lean on; we'd recommend a direct call to confirm base location, check-in procedures, and whether English-speaking support is available, especially important if you're flying in from abroad.
