About this yacht
A/C, GENERATOR, HYDRAULIC GANGWAY, ELECTRIC WINCH, BOWTHRUSTER, SOLAR PANEL, OUTBOARD INCLUDED, NEW MAIN SAIL 2026
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for larger groups. With five cabins and room for ten, Scorpius is ideal if you're bringing family or friends on a shared charter, the cost per person drops nicely, and you get genuine comfort rather than bunking four to a cabin.

Well-equipped modern cruiser. The 2016 Jeanneau 54 comes loaded: autopilot, bow thruster, generator, solar panels, and snorkeling gear mean you can sail hands-free, anchor confidently in tight spots, and explore reefs without extra hire costs. The sprayhood and bimini keep the sun and spray manageable during longer passages.

Strong value proposition. At €4,800 per week through a top-rated operator (5/5 stars), you're looking at roughly €480 per person for a ten-berth charter, genuinely competitive for a modern, well-maintained 54-footer with this spec and zero deposit required.

One practical note. Istion Yachting operates from bases we'd need to confirm, but if you're flying long-haul from the US or northern Europe, budget time for ground transfer; charter bases can vary in airport proximity, so check your specific pickup location before booking.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kos, in Kos, Greece. Scorpius is operated by Istion Yachting.

G. Papandreou Str

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.

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