What KateBot thinks Strengths and trade-offs KateBot generated · ~200 words
SailChecker note

10 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.

Who This Suits. New Horizons 2 is built for larger groups or multi-family flotillas exploring the Greek islands; with six cabins plus two crew berths, you can sleep 14 comfortably, which spreads costs nicely across eight to ten paying guests. The Saba 50 catamaran also handles well for clients wanting stability and space rather than speed or sleek performance.

Standout Features. The water sports kit is genuinely comprehensive; you get ski tube, wakeboards, water skis for kids, fishing gear, paddle boards, and snorkeling equipment all included, which justifies the cabin count if your group enjoys active days on the water. Dual sun awnings and air conditioning across the boat mean comfort in the Mediterranean heat, plus the zero deposit is refreshingly straightforward for charter bookings.

Value For Money. At 16,800 euros weekly, you're paying roughly 1,200 per cabin; that's fair for a 2016 catamaran with this level of equipment and a professional operator in a busy charter market like Athens. You're essentially getting a floating villa with toys thrown in, which works out sensible if your group fills five or six of those cabins.

One Practical Note. Athens airport connects well to most European and US hubs, but Nea Peramos Marina is roughly 90 minutes from the airport; factor in road transfer time, particularly if you're coordinating arrival flights for multiple families. The boat itself needs no caveats; just make sure

Possible routes 3 hand-picked itineraries Greece · three classic charter areas

A starting point, not a script — pick one as a template and we'll tailor the dates, stops, and pace to your crew.

Saronic Gulf 7 days · ~120 nm · 5 stops

Short legs, reliable wind, history at every stop. Best first-charter route in Greece.

1 Athens (Alimos)
The main Saronic charter base; 25 minutes from the airport.
2 Aegina
Easy first-day sail; try the pistachios. Anchor at Perdika.
3 Poros
Narrow channel between island and mainland; charming town quay.
4 Hydra
No cars on the island. Tie alongside the working harbour for the evening.
5 Spetses
Old shipbuilding island, elegant. Old harbour is the spot.
Cyclades 7-10 days · ~180 nm · 5 stops

Meltemi wind July-August. Plan for one weather day — and book the marina in advance for the islands you do not want to miss.

1 Athens
Departure. Check the wind forecast and consider clockwise vs counter-clockwise.
2 Kea
Sheltered bays on the south side; first-night-out easy.
3 Paros
Naoussa for the small-village vibe; Parikia if you need provisions.
4 Naxos
The biggest island in the Cyclades. Mountain villages worth a hire-car day.
5 Mykonos
Tie alongside in the new marina; the old town quays are for tourist boats.
Ionian 7 days · ~120 nm · 4 stops

Light, predictable winds. Easiest sailing in Greece — most-loved by families and first-timers stepping up.

1 Lefkas
Charter base. Provision in the town; the bridge opens on the hour.
2 Meganisi
Vathy or Spartochori; both have quayside tavernas with welcome moorings.
3 Ithaca
Vathi harbour for the night, then to Frikes for the quiet morning.
4 Kefalonia
Fiskardo is the postcard town. Book the quay.
Frequently asked questions 14 answers Charter basics · deposits · what's included
Does New Horizons 2 come with a crew, or is it bareboat?
The operator lists New Horizons 2 as available with crew, though we have not independently confirmed the exact arrangement for this specific yacht. Get in touch and we will check the crew and skipper details with the operator before you book.
What experience or licence do we need to charter New Horizons 2?
That depends on the exact crew arrangement, which we have not confirmed for this specific yacht yet. Tell us your experience level when you enquire and we will check with the operator what, if anything, is required.
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 and proof of payment. We will confirm the exact crew arrangement and any licence requirements with the operator ahead of your charter.
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.
What's included, and do we need a skipper?
The operator lists this yacht as crewed, though we have not independently confirmed the exact crew and licence details for this specific hull. Get in touch and we will verify exactly what is included, and whether any sailing experience is needed, with the operator before you book.
Can we sail to a neighbouring country during the charter?
Sometimes, with the operator's written consent and the right paperwork. Common cross-borders: Croatia → Montenegro, Greece → Turkey, BVI → USVI. Most operators charge a one-off cruising-permit fee (typically €100–€300) and need 4–8 weeks' notice. Tell us at quote time and we'll arrange it — spontaneous border-crossing during the trip usually isn't allowed.
Do I need travel insurance on top of the charter insurance?
Yes. The yacht is insured by the operator for damage and third-party liability, but that doesn't cover you. Charter cancellation insurance (typically 4–5% of the charter fee) covers you if you have to cancel last-minute; standard travel insurance covers medical, flight, and personal-effects loss. We can recommend a UK broker that bundles both.
What happens if there's bad weather on the day?
For day-to-day weather you'll plan the week to avoid the worst — the Adriatic and Aegean have very predictable wind patterns. If a serious storm makes the start-day handover impossible, the operator delays check-in until conditions improve and refunds any lost days. The yacht itself is insured against weather damage, so you're not exposed.
Can I hold this yacht while I decide?
Yes — an option holds the yacht in your name for typically 48–72 hours at no cost. Useful if you're waiting on the rest of the crew to confirm, comparing it against another yacht, or sorting flights. Ask us when you enquire and we'll arrange the option with the operator.
