Elan Impression 40 Yacht charter Greece with Generator - Fans - A/C (A/C is an optional. Ask for more info) : Modern Family / Sport 40ft Cruising Newest Version of Elan Mid-Sized Family Cruiser. Comfort: Focus on high quality of living on board, with volume and amenities that can support small and large crews. Safety: Enjoy the best the sea has to offer, while being protected and cared for by the yacht. Easy Sailing: Enjoy, sail with ease, sail single or double handed, let those who wish to sail, sail, while others can enjoy the comfort of the yacht

Perfect for couples and small groups The Elan Impression 40.1 is a solid choice for 2, 4 people wanting a modern, manageable yacht without the complexity of larger vessels. At 12 metres, she's easy enough for confident intermediates to handle, yet roomy enough that three cabins won't feel cramped for a week's sailing.

Smart, well-equipped boat You're getting genuinely useful kit here: solar panels for longer cruising autonomy, bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot for those longer passages, and a teak cockpit that looks and feels premium. The bimini and sprayhood mean real comfort in variable Mediterranean or Atlantic conditions, not just nice-to-haves.

Solid value proposition At €3,060 per week with only €2,500 deposit, this sits in the sweet spot for newer, well-maintained production boats. You're paying for 2021 build quality and modern systems without the premium pricing of bespoke or luxury builds.

Rating with a grain of salt The operator has just one review (albeit a perfect 5-star), so you're taking a small leap of faith on George Vlamis's track record. Worth checking recent client feedback independently or asking detailed pre-charter questions about maintenance and support, especially if you're flying long-haul to get there and want peace of mind.

The marina & destination

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. Liana is operated by George Vlamis Yachts and Yacht Management.

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 Liana be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Liana 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 Liana?

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.
