SailChecker note

22 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.

Ideal for couples Cassiopea suits couples or small groups of 2, 4 sailors who want a manageable, comfortable cruising yacht without the complexity of larger vessels. At nearly 10 metres, she's responsive and fun to handle, yet roomy enough for proper cabin comfort.

Well-equipped cruiser This Oceanis 323 punches above her weight with solid gear: autopilot, chart plotter, and a swimming platform make her genuinely ready for coastal exploring. The teak cockpit, bimini, and sprayhood add real comfort during longer days at sea, you won't be sacrificing liveability for size.

Sensible value At 20 years old, she's proven herself, and the €2,000 deposit is very reasonable for a boat of this spec. You're looking at a no-nonsense, unfussy charter that won't empty your wallet while delivering genuine sailing pleasure.

One honest note Two cabins sleeping six means tight quarters if you're chartering with four or five people, bunks will be snug, and privacy limited. Check the base location and operator before booking; Sea Walker operates several bases, so confirm flight connections and transfer times from your nearest airport work for you.
