SailChecker Expert View

Who it suits Hermes is ideal for groups of four to six sailors wanting a genuine cruising experience without breaking the bank. At 13.2 metres with four cabins, she's comfortable enough for couples or small families, but genuinely shines when shared among friends.

Standout features Solar panels and an inverter mean you can anchor in remote spots and live comfortably without running the engine constantly—perfect for leisurely Greek island exploration. The sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded and dry, while basics like autopilot and a dinghy are all aboard, so you're ready to sail straight away.

Value for money At €2,100 per week (roughly £1,750 or $2,200 USD), this 2008 Cyclades 43 is genuinely competitive for a four-cabin boat in Mediterranean charter. The low deposit of €2,000 is also refreshingly sensible, making it easier to commit.

One honest note We don't have the charter base location listed, so you'll want to confirm airport access and transfer times—critical when you're flying in from the UK, US, or mainland Europe. Once you know the base, check whether Globus Yachting offers English-speaking support and how they handle international transfers.

Frequently asked questions
Can HERMES be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter HERMES 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 HERMES?
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.
