About this yacht
(Bow thruster, Teak cockpit, Swimming platform - Solar 2025)
SailChecker Expert View

Great family cruiser The Dufour 412 Grand Large is a solid mid-size cruising yacht that suits families and small groups wanting a comfortable, easy-to-manage boat. With three cabins sleeping up to eight, you've got flexibility without the complexity of a larger vessel.

Well-equipped for comfort AINA comes loaded with thoughtful features: a bow thruster makes tight anchorages painless, solar panels reduce engine hours, and the teak cockpit plus bimini top mean you'll actually enjoy being outside. Snorkeling gear and a swimming platform are genuine bonuses for Mediterranean cruising, and Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected between anchorages.

Solid value proposition A 2017 boat in this class typically offers excellent bang for your buck, modern enough to be reliable, established enough to have sorted teething problems. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, and the operator's 5-star rating (albeit from just one review) is a positive signal.

One honest note The operator information is sparse, we don't see a named base location, which is unusual. Before booking, confirm the exact charter location and whether Mediterranean Yachting Holidays handles logistics like airport transfers or provisioning, especially important if you're flying long-haul to reach the boat.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. AINA is operated by Mediterranean Yachting Holidays.

East Shore

Why this is a great starting point

D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.

Frequently asked questions
Can AINA be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter AINA 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 AINA?
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.
