Perfect for groups The Bavaria C45 is an excellent choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends, five cabins sleep up to 12, making per-person costs very reasonable for larger parties. The 2019 build means modern systems and good condition throughout.

Smart practical features This boat includes genuinely useful kit: the bow thruster makes tight anchorages and marina entries straightforward (great for less experienced skippers), solar panels offset power consumption, and the sprayhood protects your cockpit time in typical European waters. The chart plotter in the cockpit is standard but essential.

Strong value proposition JF Yachts has an impressive 4.8/5 rating, and the €3,000 deposit is reasonable, suggesting competitive daily rates for a five-cabin, well-equipped cruiser of this age. You're getting a reliable, modern boat without premium pricing.

One thing to note At 14 metres with 12 berths, cabin space will be cosy if you're actually filling all bunks; it's genuinely better suited to 8, 10 people for real comfort. Also, we'd recommend confirming the exact charter base location and transfer logistics from your nearest international airport before booking, that'll determine your ease of arrival.

The marina & destination

Based at Paros port, in Paros, Greece. Simeon is operated by JF Yachts .

Why this is a great starting point

Paros port offers excellent access to the central Cyclades, with the nearby islands of Naxos, Antiparos, and Delos reachable within a few hours of sailing. Week one typically involves relaxed beam reaches between these islands; you'll have reliable northerly winds and sheltered anchorages at Naoussa, Drios, and around Antiparos. The port itself has good provisioning and repair facilities, making it a practical base before heading south towards Ios and Santorini or north towards Mykonos.

Can Simeon be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Simeon 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 Simeon?

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.
