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.
Compact, modern cruiser The Dufour 360 Grand Large is a smart 2018 design that punches above its weight for couples and small families. At just under 11 metres, it's nimble enough for tight anchorages and shallow-draft exploration, yet well-equipped for genuine cruising comfort.
Standout tech features Solar panels paired with an inverter mean you'll have solid power independence at anchor, a real bonus for extended stays in remote spots. Electric winches and autopilot take the grunt work out of sailing, while the dinghy, sprayhood, and bimini cover all the practical bases for day-to-day living aboard.
Good value proposition At this size and age, the €1,500 deposit is reasonable, and Sailway's perfect 5-star rating (albeit from limited reviews) is encouraging. You're getting a proven, well-maintained platform with genuinely useful systems rather than basic stripped-down kit.
One honest note With only 2 cabins and 5 berths, sleeping arrangements will feel cosy rather than spacious, fine for your crew if you're comfortable sharing, but worth confirming bunk layouts before committing. The base location isn't shown here, so do ask Sailway about airport access and transfer times before booking.

Based at Adaköy Marina, in Marmaris, Turkey. Ares1 is operated by Sailway.
Adaköy Marina in Marmaris sits at the gateway to the Turkish Riviera's most accessible cruising grounds; week one typically takes you east along the coast to Ekincik and Dalyan, or west toward Icmeler and the Greek islands of Rhodes and Symi depending on wind direction. The marina benefits from reliable northwest winds in summer months, making it well-positioned for both novice sailors exploring sheltered bays and more experienced crews heading into open water. From here you can reach anchorages with reasonable overnight distances of 15 to 30 nautical miles, giving you flexibility to explore limestone coves, visit working fishing villages, and sample local provisions without excessive daily sailing.
