SailChecker note

26 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

Perfect for couples seeking comfort without the sailing commitment. At 15.8 metres with four generous cabins, Blue Dream suits two couples or a small family equally well, and the motoryacht setup means zero sailing experience required, just relax and explore.

Solid baseline cruiser with classic Ferretti build quality that's stood the test of time since 2000. You get proper sleeping quarters for eight, which is genuinely useful if you're travelling with friends, though the yacht itself doesn't shout luxury, it's honest, functional, and well-maintained rather than flashy.

Strong value proposition at €12,600 weekly, especially if you're flying in from the US or further afield. Zero deposit is refreshingly straightforward for international charterers, and that price point positions it competitively for a four-cabin motoryacht in Mediterranean waters.

One fair caveat: we can't see the base location from your listing, which matters significantly, a two-hour airport transfer kills the appeal of a week's charter. Before booking, confirm where Aquarius Yachts operates and how far you'll travel from your arrival airport. That detail will make or break your decision.
