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
