What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for couples This 2023 Focus Power 44 suits smaller groups or couples wanting modern comfort without the upkeep of ownership. Three cabins sleeping six work well for two families or friends who don't mind sharing close quarters.
Standout features You're getting a genuinely new boat with air conditioning, bow thruster for tight marina maneuvering, and a well-equipped galley including ice maker, luxuries that matter on longer voyages. The cockpit barbecue is a nice touch for entertaining stops.
Honest value question At €9,000 per week, this sits mid-range for a modern 44-footer, which is fair for 2023 build quality and the convenience factor. However, without knowing the base location, fuel policy, or what's included (crew, provisioning, transfers), it's hard to judge if this represents genuine value or premium pricing.
One consideration Motoryachts burn fuel, and fuel costs aren't always transparent upfront, get clarity on consumption rates and whether that's covered or charged separately, especially if you're planning longer passages in European waters.

Northern Dalmatia & the Kornati Loop
