About this yacht
SailChecker Expert View
Perfect for relaxed cruising This Grand Banks 72 suits couples and families who want to cruise at a leisurely pace without the stress of sailing, ideal if you're flying in from Europe or North America and want pure ease of operation. The motoryacht layout and well-equipped galley make it excellent for longer charters where comfort matters more than speed.
Solid cruising credentials The bow thruster, autopilot, and chart plotter are exactly what you need for relaxed navigation, while the four cabins sleep eight comfortably. The dinghy, bimini, and sprayhood cover the essentials for tropical or coastal cruising, and the electric toilet keeps things convenient underway.
Fair value proposition At €18,000 per week, you're looking at competitive pricing for a 72-footer in this class, not budget, but reasonable for a well-equipped motoryacht that requires minimal crew experience. The zero deposit is refreshingly hassle-free if it's genuine.
One realistic caveat We can't confirm the base location from your listing, which matters enormously for international travellers assessing flight connections and local logistics. You'll want to clarify exactly where "Hercules Poirot" operates before booking, so you can factor in airport transfers and whether English-speaking crew support is available.

The marina & destination
Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. Hercules Poirot is operated by All Blue.
Poseidonos Avenue
Alimos Marina sits just south of Athens, offering straightforward access to the Saronic Gulf's island-hopping routes; week one typically involves sailing to nearby Aegina, Poros, and Hydra, with predictable northerly winds in summer making these 15-30 nautical mile passages reliable for mixed-ability crews. The protected anchorages and short hops suit charter clients recovering from long-haul flights, while the marina's proximity to Athens airport (30 minutes by car) minimizes transfer time. Alimos itself has full facilities and is a logical base for exploring the sheltered Saronic islands before pushing further south toward the Peloponnese if conditions allow.
