What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Ideal for experienced sailors This 2020 Hanse 588 is a cracking modern cruiser that suits confident sailors who want to skip the hassle of managing their own boat logistics. At 17.2 metres with four cabins, she's spacious enough for small groups or families, but the skippered-only arrangement means you'll need to either bring your own sailing crew or budget for a professional skipper on top of the charter price.
Well-equipped and thoughtful Amadea ticks all the boxes for extended cruising: water maker, generator, solar panels, and a bow thruster take the stress out of tight anchorages and self-sufficiency. The teak deck and cockpit cushions signal she's been cared for, and the fact that Istion Yachting (5/5 rated) maintains her in a modern yacht fleet is genuinely reassuring.
Fair value proposition At €5,920 per week with zero deposit required, the pricing is competitive for a 2020 boat of this calibre in the Mediterranean (assuming that's the base location, details aren't specified here). The skippered model does add cost, but you're paying for peace of mind and local knowledge rather than DIY stress.
One honest note The charter base location isn't listed in your details, which matters hugely for international clients arranging flights and transfers. Before booking, confirm where she sails from and how long you'll need to factor in to reach her from major European or US hubs

Where Charters WentTop Stop: Leros, 55% of trips
The heat map shows recorded overnight stops from round trips made by charter yachts tracked by AIS from Kos and the north Dodecanese during the 2025 season. You can use it to see where those yachts spent their nights and compare that with your own yacht charter plans. It is not a navigation guide.
Kalymnos was the most common first night out, at 29% of trips with a recorded first night. On 55% of trips, the furthest point from base was within 40 to 60 nm, measured in a straight line.
Use the recorded stops as a starting point for your charter plans. The full map gives you more to compare, and you can ask us about a route from Kos and the north Dodecanese for this type of boat.
