Services & extras (optional)

Crew change during the charter
Crew Change: The permanent disembarkation of passengers who boarded at the start of the journey is prohibited if it exceeds seventy-five per cent (75%). The permanent disembarkation of passengers who boarded during the journey is prohibited if it exceeds seventy-five per cent (75%) of the number of additional passengers. The crew change policy outlined specifies that a crew change during a charter is permissible up to 75%. If the change exceeds this threshold, it necessitates the issuance of a new charter contract, which must be processed through one of Athenian’s bases due to the requirement for new procedures with port authorities. The fees associated with crew changes are set at €120, which covers water, electricity, and marina fees/services across all bases. For crew changes of less than 75%, an additional term can be added to the existing charter contract, allowing the process to avoid the need to visit any Athenian base for port procedures. If a new skipper is introduced, an extra charge ranging from €135 to €425 (for check-in/out fee) will apply, depending on the boat's size. This structured approach ensures compliance with port authority regulations while providing flexibility for charter clients regarding crew management.

SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for larger groups This Jeanneau 54 is a brilliant choice if you're bringing an extended family or friends, those 6 cabins and 12 berths mean everyone gets their own space without feeling cramped. At 16.2 metres, she's substantial enough to handle open-water sailing comfortably whilst remaining manageable for experienced skippers.

Seriously well-equipped Electric winches, bow thruster, autopilot, and a generator mean less sweat and more relaxation, which matters on a week-long charter. The teak cockpit, bimini, sprayhood, and convertible table transform the outdoor space into a proper entertaining area, plus air conditioning below decks is a genuine comfort on a Mediterranean summer.

Strong value proposition At €4,550/week through a 5-star operator (Athenian Yachts), this is competitive for a modern six-cabin boat in Greece, and the €1,000 deposit is refreshingly low. You're getting a relatively new vessel (2019) with solid equipment without paying premium prices.

One realistic consideration You'll need to fly into Athens or a nearby Greek base, so factor in airport transfers and connection time if you're coming from the US or UK, nothing unusual for a Greek charter, but worth planning around. The boat's size and cabin count mean she'll appeal to bigger groups, so book well ahead during peak season.

The marina & destination

Based at Hotel Armonia, in Nydri, Greece. PELAGIC SAIL is operated by Athenian Yachts.

Why this is a great starting point

Hotel Armonia in Nydri sits on Lefkada's east coast, ideally positioned for exploring the Ionian Islands; week one typically involves short hops south to Meganisi, Kalamos, and Kastos, or north to Skorpios and the Dioni anchorages, all achievable in 2-4 hour passages with settled summer winds. The sheltered waters and numerous island anchorages make it well-suited to mixed-ability crews, while the town offers provisioning and restaurants within walking distance. Prevailing northwesterlies in July and August mean you can expect reliable downwind runs to southern islands and straightforward returns via the lee shore.

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