SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for families The Hanse 588 is a modern cruising yacht that suits families or small groups wanting comfort without compromise—four well-appointed cabins sleep up to nine, and the 2025 build means everything feels fresh and reliable.

Standout comfort features You get air conditioning, a water maker, teak deck, and electric winches as standard, which means less grunt work and more time enjoying the Aegean. The lazy jack and sprayhood are genuinely useful additions that make day-sailing less taxing.

Fair value proposition At 17.2 metres with this spec and build year, pricing appears reasonable for a modern family cruiser—the generator, autopilot, and dinghy all reduce hidden costs during your week. Just confirm final rates with Hellenic Yachting, as the deposit alone doesn't tell the full story.

One honest note The operator has only two reviews on record, so you're chartering with someone relatively new to the platform—worth asking directly about their experience and getting solid references before committing, especially if you're flying long-haul from the US or UK to Greece.

Frequently asked questions
Can QED be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter QED 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 QED?
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.
