What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for couples The Dufour 390 is an excellent choice if you're looking for a comfortable cruising yacht that handles beautifully without demanding heavy crew input. At 12m with three cabins and smart design, it's ideal for two couples or a small family wanting easy sailing around the Ionian Islands.
Well-equipped modern boat This 2021 build has the kit that matters: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot to ease the workload, solar panels for sustainability, and a teak cockpit that looks and feels premium. The chart plotter, bimini, and inverter round out a thoughtful spec that suggests careful owner investment.
Outstanding value proposition At around €2,010 per week with a reputable operator (5/5 rating), you're getting a nearly-new boat in one of Greece's most scenic cruising grounds for less than many older boats charge. Factor in a quick transfer from Preveza Airport (roughly 90 minutes), and this becomes a genuinely attractive package for US and European-based sailors.
One realistic note The Ionian in summer can get crowded and windy, this is a forgiving boat, but if you prefer consistent light-air sailing or solitude, peak-season timing matters. That said, Blue Memories' strong reviews suggest they steer clients toward sensible itineraries.
