SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups Penny is an excellent choice if you're chartering with a larger crew—six cabins and 12 berths mean families or friends can spread out comfortably without feeling cramped. At 15.6 metres, she's spacious enough to avoid that sardine-tin feeling that smaller boats create on week-long trips.

Well-equipped cruiser This 2008 Cyclades 50.5 comes with genuinely useful features: electric winches take the strain out of sailing, a bow thruster makes tight anchorages painless, and solar panels keep the batteries topped up—especially valuable if you're anchoring off rather than plugging into marinas. The bimini, sprayhood, and dinghy round out a practical, comfortable setup for Greek waters.

Strong value proposition At €2,695 per week with only a €2,000 deposit, Penny is fairly priced for a six-cabin boat in this market. You're getting decent equipment and a proven, reliable hull design without paying premium rates. That works out to roughly €225 per person per week for a full crew of 12—genuinely good value.

One honest note She's 16 years old, so while Cyclades builds solid boats, you'll want to factor in that older systems may need attention during your charter. Always inspect mechanical items like the outboard and winches at handover, and confirm with Rinia Yachting exactly what their pre-charter maintenance covers.

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