Bowthruster, Generator, A/C in Every Cabin

Perfect family choice. The Bavaria Cruiser 56 suits groups and families after a relaxed, well-equipped sailing holiday, with 6 cabins and 12 berths, you've got space for two families or a larger crew without feeling cramped. The 2016 build and solid 4.9-star operator rating suggest a well-maintained, reliable vessel.

Standout comfort features. Air conditioning, electric winches, a bow thruster, and solar panels tick all the boxes for modern cruising without the fuss, especially valuable if your crew includes less experienced sailors or anyone who prefers easier handling. The diving and snorkeling kit plus bimini and sprayhood make Greek island life genuinely pleasant, not just tolerable.

Strong value proposition. At €2,925 per week, you're paying fair rates for a spacious, well-spec'd boat in Greece; the €3,500 deposit is reasonable for a six-cabin vessel. For transatlantic or European travelers factoring in flights to Athens or nearby airports, this delivers solid bang-for-buck over a fortnight's charter.

One practical note. IonianSails appears based in the Greek islands (likely Corfu or similar), so confirm exactly which base you're departing from and how airport transfers are arranged, some operators bundle this, others charge extra, and it can add time or cost for long-haul visitors.

The marina & destination

Based at Port of Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. Breathless is operated by IonionSails.gr.

Can Breathless be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Breathless 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 Breathless?

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.
