Who it suits This Bavaria is ideal for couples or small families wanting a relaxed, manageable sailing holiday without fuss. At 41 feet with three cabins, it strikes a nice balance between comfortable private space and straightforward handling for 2, 4 people.

Standout features The 2015 build includes genuinely useful kit: solar panels mean lower generator noise, a bow thruster takes the stress out of tight anchorages, and the swimming platform with bimini cover makes lounging between sails genuinely pleasant. Autopilot and sprayhood are welcome additions at this size.

Value for money At €2,800 per week with a modest €3,200 deposit, this boat offers solid value for a well-equipped, relatively modern cruising yacht. You're getting a reliable workhorse, not a luxury floating hotel, but the price reflects honest value.

One honest note The operator details are incomplete in the listing, so you'll want to confirm base location, whether the team speaks English fluently, and exact transfer logistics from the nearest international airport before booking, crucial when flying long-haul to charter. A quick call to Kekeris Yachts will clear this up fast.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kos, in Kos, Greece. S/Y Cecilia is operated by Kekeris Yachts.

G. Papandreou Str

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.

Can S/Y Cecilia be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter S/Y Cecilia 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 S/Y Cecilia?

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.
