What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
20 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.
Solid Mid-Range Cruiser The Oceanis 423 is a proven, comfortable cruising yacht that suits couples and small families wanting to explore Greek waters without breaking the bank. At 13.1 metres with four cabins sleeping eight, it offers genuine flexibility for mixed groups, though you'll want to manage expectations around personal space on longer trips.
Well-Equipped for Comfort You're getting thoughtful extras here: electric winches, autopilot, bow thruster, and solar panels mean less sweat and more relaxation underway. The teak cockpit, bimini, and sprayhood suggest this boat was maintained with an eye toward cruiser comfort rather than racing pedigree. Snorkeling gear included is a nice touch for Greek island hopping.
Excellent Value Proposition At €2,115 per week with a modest €2,000 deposit, this represents genuine mid-season value for a four-cabin cruiser in Greece. You're chartering with GreeceXperience (5/5 rating), and that operator knowledge matters when you're flying in from abroad and need reliable local support and clear handover procedures.
Age Is the Honest Note Built in 2006, this boat is nearly 20 years old, not ancient, but worth asking about the condition of systems like the fridge, plumbing, and seals. Request a recent survey report or specific maintenance details on the engine and through-hulls before committing, especially if you're planning a
