What KateBot thinks
KateBot generated · ~200 words
10 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 starter choice. The Dufour 382 is an ideal boat for couples or small families new to sailing, it's forgiving, stable, and doesn't demand expert seamanship. At 11.2m with three cabins and space for eight, you get genuine comfort without feeling cramped.
Smart practical kit. Solar panels and a bow thruster are real quality-of-life features for a 2016 boat in this size; they save fuel, reduce engine hours, and make tight anchorages far less stressful. The sprayhood and bimini mean you'll actually enjoy sitting in the cockpit, whatever the weather throws at you.
Solid value proposition. At €1,200 per week with a modest €2,500 deposit, this is genuinely competitive pricing for a well-equipped three-cabin cruiser. You're getting decent modern gadgets (autopilot, chart plotter, solar) bundled in, which beats paying extra on charter upgrades.
One honest note: AF Yachting's 4.3-star rating is respectable but based on just three reviews, so track record is thin, worth checking recent guest feedback before committing. Since the base location isn't listed, confirm how convenient the airport transfer is from your arrival point before finalizing.

Where Charters Went
Yacht charter overnight stops in Lefkas, the Inland Sea and Kefalonia
The heat map shows recorded overnight stops from round trips made by charter yachts tracked by AIS from Lefkas, the Inland Sea and Kefalonia during the 2025 season. You can use it to see where those yachts spent their nights and compare that with your own yacht charter plans. It is not a navigation guide.
Where charter yachts spent their nights
Meganisi was the most common first night out, at 37% of trips with a recorded first night. On 62% of trips, the furthest point from base was within 20 to 40 nm, measured in a straight line.
