SailChecker Expert View

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.

One realistic note We don't have the base location listed, which matters for your travel logistics, whether it's Greece, the Caribbean, or Croatia affects your flight connections and transfer time significantly. Reach out to Patronis directly to confirm the base and typical airport transfer arrangements before committing.

The marina & destination

Based at Port of Volos, in Volos, Greece. Aelia is operated by Patronis Sailing.

Why this is a great starting point

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.

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