SailChecker note

12 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Solid family cruiser The Bavaria Cruiser 46 is a well-established platform that suits families and small groups wanting comfort without complexity. With four cabins and nine berths, "Blue Moon" has the sleeping capacity for two families or a group of friends, and the 14-metre size keeps her manageable even for less experienced skippers.

Practical onboard features The essentials are all here, bow thruster for easier handling in tight anchorages, autopilot for longer passages, and a swimming platform that's a genuine bonus in warm-water destinations. The bimini and sprayhood are nice touches for sun and weather protection, and the dinghy means you're not stuck if moored offshore.

Reasonable value proposition At this size and age (2014), you're getting a proven design with solid resale appeal and proven charter track records, which usually means fewer surprises. The €3,500 deposit is standard for a boat of this class, so pricing feels in line with the market.

Base location matters Without knowing where Kiriacoulis Holidays operates, I can't comment on airport access or how convenient it is for international travellers flying in. Before booking, confirm your nearest airport and transfer logistics, that'll make or break your holiday experience given the long haul most of our clients face.
