What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
21 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 it suits This 51-footer works brilliantly for larger groups or extended families wanting serious sailing comfort without breaking the bank at €2,000/week. With five cabins sleeping 12, you're looking at excellent value per person for a proper bareboat adventure in Greece.
Standout features The electric winches and bow thruster make handling genuinely easier for mixed-experience crews, while the teak cockpit and sprayhood keep you comfortable in variable conditions. Solar panels and an inverter show thoughtful provisioning for longer passages, and the chart plotter with radio takes the guesswork out of navigation.
Value for money At this price point with this spec and cabin count, you're getting solid value , the equipment list suggests a well-maintained cruiser rather than a stripped-back budget option. Just bear in mind the 2005 build age; older boats need more TLC and occasional surprises.
One honest note The operator's 3.7/5 rating from only three reviews is thin feedback; before committing, ask specifically about recent maintenance records and get details on what's covered versus what isn't. Coming long-haul to Greece, you'll want reassurance the boat's in genuinely good shape.
