Great family choice. The Elan Impression 444 suits groups of 4, 10 people looking for a comfortable, well-equipped sailing experience without breaking the bank. At 13.8 metres with four cabins, it's spacious enough for families or friends to spread out while remaining manageable for mixed-ability crews.

Well-appointed boat. The teak cockpit, autopilot, and radar are solid cruising features, and the inclusion of snorkeling gear means you can explore Mediterranean reefs without extra cost. The electric toilet and refrigerator signal decent onboard comfort for a 2012 boat of this size.

Solid value proposition. A €2,500 deposit on a four-cabin yacht is reasonable, and the 5/5 operator rating (though based on just two reviews) suggests Mediterranean Sailing Group maintains their fleet well and delivers good service. For international clients flying in, this is a straightforward charter to arrange.

One practical note: An outboard engine on a 13.8m cruising yacht is modest, so fuel efficiency is good but don't expect quick motoring in calm conditions, plan accordingly if you're on a tight itinerary. You'll want to confirm the base location and airport transfer logistics, as that varies significantly across Mediterranean regions.

The marina & destination

Based at Yacht Club Amfitheas, in Palaio Faliro - Athens, Greece. Aquatica is operated by MEDITERRANEAN SAILING GROUP.

Why this is a great starting point

Yacht Club Amfitheas sits in Palaio Faliro, a suburb south of Athens, giving you immediate access to the Saronic Gulf's protected waters and numerous islands. From here, week 1 typically targets the Argo-Saronic islands; Hydra, Spetses, and Poros are all day-sail distances, offering sheltered anchorages and established provisioning stops. The prevailing summer northerlies push you south and east naturally, making this an ideal base if you want to avoid the crowds and logistics of busier central Aegean marinas.

Can Aquatica be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Aquatica 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 Aquatica?

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.
