10 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention — ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter; on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Suits Family And Friend Groups. This four-cabin Lagoon 630 is built for relaxed cruising with up to eight people, making it ideal if you're splitting costs across multiple couples or bringing teenagers who don't mind shared cabin space. The catamaran hull delivers stability and shallow draft, perfect for Greek island hopping without requiring advanced sailing skills.
Strong Practical Features. You get a spacious open-plan saloon, good engine power for motoring through calm waters, and the proven Lagoon design with decent storage and a functional galley. The zero deposit is refreshing and removes upfront financial friction for international charterers.
Fair Value Proposition. At around 6,000 euros per cabin per week, this sits mid-market for the Aegean in 2016 tonnage; you're paying for comfort and space rather than cutting-edge finishes, which is honest positioning. Lavrion is only 45 minutes from Athens airport, making it convenient for US and UK arrivals with onward connections.
One Honest Caveat. A 2016 boat is solid enough, but you should confirm the condition of engines, electronics, and soft furnishings before booking, as maintenance histories vary between operators. Request recent photos or a virtual walkthrough so there are no surprises when you arrive.

Based at Lavrion Marina, Greece. Pearly Gates is operated by Perfect Yachts.
Lavrion Marina sits at the southern tip of Attica, making it ideal for charters heading into the Saronic Gulf or south towards the Cyclades; the short hop to Hydra, Spetses, and Poros typically fills week one with protected sailing and strong afternoon winds. The marina works well as a base for clients who want to avoid the crowds of Mykonos and Santorini while still accessing classic Greek island cruising with reliable northerly winds. Direct access to Athens airport logistics and straightforward day-sails to the Argo-Saronic islands mean minimal transit time before you're anchored in clear water.
