About this yacht

SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for groups The Aifos is an excellent choice if you're chartering with family or friends, five cabins and eight berths mean everyone gets their own space without feeling cramped. At 12.2 metres, this 2023 catamaran strikes a smart balance between roomy and manageable for mixed-experience crews.

Well-equipped modern cat You're getting genuinely useful kit here: solar panels keep batteries topped up, lazy jack and lazy bag make sail handling effortless, and the cockpit chart plotter plus autopilot take the stress out of navigation. The snorkeling equipment and dinghy are bonuses that add real value to an eastern Mediterranean or similar warm-water charter.

Solid value proposition At €6,460 per week with zero deposit required and a pristine 5-star operator rating, this represents honest pricing for a brand-new catamaran in this size range. Split eight ways among a full group, the per-person cost becomes genuinely reasonable for a week afloat.

One practical note The charter base location isn't specified in your data, so I'd confirm exactly where Aifos is based and factor in your flight routing, if it's somewhere like Greece or Turkey, you're likely looking at a European hub connection. Always worth checking transfer times from the nearest major airport before booking.

The marina & destination

Based at Lavrion Main Port, in Lavrion, Greece. Aifos is operated by Istion Yachting.

Akti Papandreou Andrea

Why this is a great starting point

Lavrion is a working commercial port southeast of Athens with good road access from the capital, making it convenient for fly-in charters. From here you can reach the Saronic Gulf islands (Aegina, Poros, Hydra) within a day's sail, or head south towards the Cyclades with steady northerly winds; week one typically takes you to Kea, Kythnos, or Serifos depending on conditions. The port itself is functional rather than resort-like, but offers reasonable facilities and a practical base for exploring some of Greece's most accessible sailing grounds.

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