Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Who it suits Blondie works brilliantly for groups of 4, 8 wanting a comfortable, well-equipped sailing experience without the stress of a larger vessel. At 13.3m she's manageable for confident sailors, yet spacious enough that you won't feel cramped with a full crew.
Standout features The 2008 Cyclades 43.4 is a proven, solid cruiser with genuinely useful kit, heating and an inverter make extended trips pleasant, and the sprayhood plus bimini mean you can actually enjoy deck time in variable weather. Autopilot and chart plotter take the edge off longer passages, which matters if you're chartering from abroad.
Real value here At this price point with a €2,500 deposit, she offers solid bang for your euro if you're comfortable with a 16-year-old boat in good working order. You're paying for reliability and practicality rather than newness or luxury, which is fair.
One honest note The base location isn't listed in your data, so I can't advise on airport access or how many connecting flights you might face from the US, UK, or Europe, definitely clarify that with SK-Yachting before booking, as it'll shape your trip logistics considerably.

Marmaris Yacht Marina sits at the gateway to the Turkish Riviera's most accessible cruising grounds; week one typically covers the Bozburun Peninsula and Greek islands across the Aegean, with reliable summer northerlies (the Etesian wind) pushing you east toward Symi and Rhodes. The marina's central location means you can reach sheltered anchorages in Dalyan, Ekincik, and the Gokova Gulf within day-sail distances, making it ideal if you want immediate access to medieval ruins, pine-backed bays, and established provisioning stops. Charter season runs May to October, with July and August offering steady winds but crowded anchorages; shoulder months provide quieter sailing and easier mooring availability.
