Asteria - Standard line (Oceanis 45)

Perfect for families The Oceanis 45 is a brilliant choice if you're bringing a multi-generational crew or want genuinely comfortable sailing without cramped quarters. Four cabins and 10 berths mean everyone gets reasonable space, and the 2019 build year suggests well-maintained systems that won't give you grief mid-charter.

Well-equipped boat Electric winches and a bow thruster take the physical strain out of sailing and mooring, which is genuinely valuable if your crew includes less experienced sailors or anyone wanting a more relaxed week. The autopilot, chart plotter, and lazy bag round out a solid modern spec that handles real-world sailing without fuss.

Excellent operator credentials Spartivento's 4.8/5 rating across 14 reviews is genuinely strong, and that kind of consistency suggests reliable handover, decent support, and boats kept in proper condition. The €3,500 deposit is reasonable for a yacht this size.

One realistic note: You'll need to confirm the charter base location, it's not listed in your data, which matters for flight connections from the US or UK. Once you know where she's based, check transfer times from the nearest major airport; that'll determine whether you lose half a day getting to the boat or arrive with time to settle in properly.
