The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Ideal for larger groups This 2025 Lagoon 43 is a fantastic choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends, 12 berths across 6 cabins means everyone gets their own space without cramping. The catamaran hull also delivers excellent stability and shallow draft, perfect for exploring hidden anchorages.
Genuinely well-equipped You're looking at serious kit here: water maker, solar panels, generator, and air conditioning mean true comfort and independence at sea. The hydraulic gangway is a nice touch for easier boarding with luggage after your long-haul flight, and snorkeling gear is included, no rental fees needed.
Strong value proposition At €7,470/week with a modest €3,500 deposit, this is competitively priced for a new, six-cabin catamaran in 2025. Patronis Sailing's perfect 5/5 rating (albeit from just 3 reviews) suggests solid service, though the small sample size means you might want to request recent client feedback before booking.

Based at Port of Volos, in Volos, Greece. Aelia is operated by Patronis Sailing.
Volos sits at the gateway to the Sporades islands, making it ideal for week-one cruising to Skiathos, Skopelos, and Alonissos with consistent northerly winds; the crossing to these islands typically takes 4-8 hours depending on your chosen anchorage. The marina offers good facilities and the Pelion peninsula provides a scenic backdrop, though expect the meltemi wind to strengthen as the season progresses. From here you can also explore the quieter Evia coast to the south or venture north towards Thassos if conditions allow, giving you flexibility for a relaxed first week of chartering.
