Perfect for groups The Aenaos is an excellent choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends, six cabins and 12 berths mean everyone gets their own sleeping space, which matters hugely on a multi-day voyage. It's a 2020 Lagoon 42, so you're getting a relatively modern, well-proven catamaran platform that handles comfortably.

Well-equipped vessel This boat ticks all the boxes for comfortable cruising: water maker, air conditioning, solar panels with generator backup, electric winches to reduce physical strain, and thoughtful extras like the bimini and sprayhood for sun and spray protection. The snorkeling kit is a nice bonus for exploring shallow anchorages.

Strong operator credentials ARCHON Yachting carries a perfect 5-star rating across their reviews, which suggests reliable turnovers, responsive support, and well-maintained equipment, critical when you're flying in from overseas and need peace of mind. The modest €500 deposit is also refreshingly straightforward.

One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed here, so before booking, confirm flight logistics: some bases require 2, 3 hours from the nearest international airport, while others are much closer. That detail will significantly affect your travel day once you've booked.

The marina & destination

Based at Rhodes New Marina, in Rhodes, Greece. Aenaos is operated by ARCHON Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

Rhodes New Marina sits at the eastern edge of the Dodecanese islands, offering direct access to the Turkish coast and the protected waters of the nearby Symi and Tilos. Week 1 typically involves sailing north to island-hop through Symi, Nimos, and Alimia, or southwest toward Chalki and the Datça Peninsula; winds favour a mix of morning breezes and reliable afternoon northerlies. The marina itself is well-equipped with modern facilities and sits close enough to Rhodes Town for provisioning, making it a solid operational base for first-time visitors to Greek island sailing.

Can Aenaos be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Aenaos 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 Aenaos?

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.
