Zezo (Oceanis 40)

Perfect for families The Oceanis 40 is a well-established cruiser that suits groups of 4, 8 looking for comfort without sacrificing sailing performance. Three cabins and eight berths make it flexible for mixed groups, couples travelling together or families with teenagers.

Smart comfort features You're getting serious creature comforts here: air conditioning, heating, a full galley fridge, and a teak cockpit that feels more yacht club than charter boat. The autopilot and chart plotter take the stress out of longer passages, while the bimini and sprayhood keep sun and spray at bay during day sailing.

Solid value proposition At 2009 build, this is a proven design with a loyal following, Oceanis 40s hold up well in charter fleets. The €2,500 deposit is reasonable, and the equipment list suggests the operator maintains standards; you're not paying boutique prices for genuine utility.

One practical note I'd confirm the base location with SK-Yachting, that detail's missing from your spec sheet, which matters for flight times and whether you're looking at a quick hop or a longer journey from the UK or US. Once you know where she's moored, you'll have a clearer picture of logistics.
