Rafaella (Oceanis 45)

Perfect for families The Oceanis 45 is a spacious four-cabin cruiser that sleeps up to 10, making it ideal for families or groups wanting comfortable accommodation without squeezing into tight quarters. She's a proven design that balances ease of handling with genuine living space below deck.

Well-equipped cruiser Rafaella comes with practical kit including solar panels (great for extended cruising), a bow thruster for tight anchorages, sprayhood for protection, and chart plotter, all the essentials for independent sailing without constantly hiring extras. The teak cockpit adds a touch of character too.

Strong value proposition At €3,700 per week with a modest €2,500 deposit and backed by a five-star operator rating, this represents solid value for a family-sized sailing boat in a proper charter fleet. You're getting a well-maintained, capable vessel at a fair price.

One realistic note A 2014 boat is now a decade old, so while the equipment list looks solid, you might expect the occasional quirk or worn cosmetic element, nothing unusual for a working charter yacht, but worth confirming condition details directly with Odyssey Sailing before booking.
