Bow Thruster - Teak Cockpit

Ideal for small groups The Dufour 390 Grand Large suits couples or small families wanting a manageable, well-equipped sail boat without the complexity of a larger vessel. Three cabins and eight berths give you flexibility to bring friends, though sleeping eight would be snug.

Smart practical features This 2020 model ticks genuine boxes: solar panels mean less engine running, the bow thruster takes stress out of tight anchorages, and the bimini plus sprayhood keep you comfortable in changeable weather. The teak cockpit and dinghy are honest comfort additions that matter on longer charters.

Solid value proposition At 11.9 metres, you're getting a proven Dufour design with modern systems at a price point that won't require a second mortgage, the €2,500 deposit is reasonable. That said, we only have one operator review, so we'd suggest asking Zen Yachting direct about their maintenance schedule and how often this boat actually deploys.

One practical note Base location data is missing from your brief, which matters hugely when you're flying internationally, you'll want to confirm airport transfer times and whether Zen Yachting offers proper pre-arrival support for international clients unfamiliar with the cruising area.

The marina & destination

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. ΙΝΟ is operated by Zen Yachting.

Poseidonos Avenue

Why this is a great starting point

Alimos Marina sits just south of Athens, offering straightforward access to the Saronic Gulf's island-hopping routes; week one typically involves sailing to nearby Aegina, Poros, and Hydra, with predictable northerly winds in summer making these 15-30 nautical mile passages reliable for mixed-ability crews. The protected anchorages and short hops suit charter clients recovering from long-haul flights, while the marina's proximity to Athens airport (30 minutes by car) minimizes transfer time. Alimos itself has full facilities and is a logical base for exploring the sheltered Saronic islands before pushing further south toward the Peloponnese if conditions allow.

Can ΙΝΟ be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter ΙΝΟ 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 ΙΝΟ?

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.
