What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
19 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.
Perfect for groups Take Five sleeps 11 across six cabins, making her ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a larger sailing adventure. The 50.5 is a proven cruising design that balances comfort with seaworthiness.
Well-equipped vessel She's got the essentials covered: solar panels for self-sufficiency, snorkeling gear for exploring anchorages, autopilot for easier sailing, and a dinghy tender included. The bimini and sprayhood keep you comfortable during long passages or hot Mediterranean days.
Reasonable value proposition At this size and age (2007), the €2,500 deposit is modest, and Yildiz Yachting's perfect 5-star rating is a positive sign, though that's based on limited reviews. For a 6-cabin charter, per-person costs should work out competitively if you fill those bunks.
One realistic note A 15.7m yacht with 11 berths means some cabins are snug, and coordinating that many people requires clear communication before you arrive from your long-haul flight. Confirm exactly which cabins have ensuite heads versus shared facilities, as this matters more on bigger group boats.
