What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
11 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.
Ideal for larger groups. This 56-footer sleeps 12 across five cabins, making it perfect if you're chartering with extended family or friends, think multi-generational holidays or corporate team retreats. You won't find many cruising sailboats at this size with this sleeping capacity, so it's genuinely practical for groups that would otherwise need two boats.
Well-equipped cruiser. The Bavaria Cruiser range is known for comfortable, sensible design, and Agamemnon comes with the essentials: autopilot, chart plotter, dinghy, and a sprayhood for protection. The bimini and cockpit cushions suggest the operator understands that charter guests value shade and comfort, not just sailing performance.
Strong value proposition. At €4,200 per week (roughly £3,500, €4,800 depending on season), you're looking at under €350 per person for a week if you fill all 12 berths. That's competitive for a 2015 boat of this size, especially with a decent equipment list included.
Location matters here. Kavala sits in northern Greece, a less-travelled area than the Ionian Islands or Cyclades, which means fewer charter crowds but also longer transfers from major European hubs. Budget 4, 5 hours total travel from Athens airport if that's your entry point; the tradeoff is you get quieter sailing grounds and potentially better value.
