About this yacht
hanse 345 / 2014 Yacht Charter Greece with Generator - Fans - A/C ((A/C is an optional. Ask for more info). Awesome wide deck Hanse 342, private till 2020
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect starter choice. This Hanse 345 suits couples and small groups (up to 6) who want a manageable, well-equipped boat without the complexity of larger yachts. At 10.4 metres, she's nimble enough to handle easily but roomy enough to avoid feeling cramped over a week.

Solid comfort package. The teak cockpit, bimini, and sprayhood mean you're genuinely protected from the elements, while the autopilot and chart plotter handle the navigation grunt work. Three cabins and a holding tank keep life practical for a week away.

Exceptional weekly rate. At €1,960 per week plus a modest €2,000 deposit, this represents genuine value for a 2014 boat with this specification, especially if you're flying in from the US or further afield and need a stress-free, turnkey charter experience.

One honest note: The operator has just one review (though it's a 5-star), so track record is thin. Before committing, I'd ask George Vlamis directly about recent client feedback and confirm the exact base location, which isn't listed here, that matters for your flight connections.

The marina & destination

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. SunShine is operated by George Vlamis Yachts and Yacht Management.

Poseidonos Avenue

Why this is a great starting point

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.

Frequently asked questions
Can SunShine be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter SunShine bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter SunShine?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
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, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
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.
