A versatile family cruiser The Oceanis 40.1 is a well-established cruiser that suits families and small groups looking for comfort without breaking the bank. With 4 cabins and sleeping for 8, Maranel offers genuine space, rare at this size, making it ideal if you're sailing with kids or want elbow room for a week away.

Thoughtfully equipped vessel This 2022 boat punches above its weight with solar panels, inverter, and bow thruster, modern conveniences that make handling easier and reduce generator dependency. The teak cockpit and comprehensive electronics (dual chart plotters, autopilot) mean you get both cruising ease and a pleasant place to spend your evenings.

Solid value proposition At this age and spec, Maranel represents honest value, especially with the gear list backing it up. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, and the boat's reputation for reliability means fewer surprises mid-charter.

One practical note Without knowing the charter base location, I'd recommend confirming airport transfers and local support, Fournaros Yachts' responsiveness matters when you're flying long-haul to start a sailing holiday. A few minutes checking reviews on their English-language support will be time well spent.

The marina & destination

Based at Athens Marina S.A., in Piraeus, Greece. Maranel is operated by Fournaros Yachts.

New Faliro

Why this is a great starting point

Athens Marina in Piraeus puts you within easy reach of the Saronic Gulf islands; week 1 typically covers Aegina, Poros, and Hydra with short 2-4 hour passages, ideal for settling into your charter boat. The Aegean's northeasterly etesian winds blow predictably in summer, giving you consistent sailing conditions across to the Cyclades if you push further. Based here, you can explore sheltered anchorages and Byzantine monasteries without committing to long offshore passages, making it suitable for mixed-ability crews.

Can Maranel be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Maranel 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 Maranel?

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.
