5-cabin sailing yacht Beneteau Oceanis 473 - Pigasos was built in 2003 (renovated in 2019) and it is docked in Volos Port, Greece.

Pigasos can accommodate up to 10 people in 1 single cabin, 4 double cabins and a saloon with 1 extra bed. Pillows and blankets are included in the price.

Sailing yacht Pigasos offers 2 toilets with a shower.

Boat equipment features a rolling mainsail, solar panels, a bimini and an outside GPS plotter. It also boasts a flat screen TV, an audio system and inside speakers. The fully-equipped galley includes a freezer, a fridge, an oven, a cooker and a sink.

Perfect for groups. At 14 metres with 4 cabins and 10 berths, Pigasos works brilliantly for families or friends wanting to share costs, you're looking at around €200 per person per week if you fill those bunks. That's genuinely competitive value for a cruising sailboat in this size range.

Solid cruising setup. She's got the essentials: autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, a bimini keeps the sun off, and a fridge means fresh provisions rather than warm beer. Two dinghies are a nice touch for groups exploring anchorages without everyone piling into one tender.

Value is honest. At €2,000/week with a modest €2,500 deposit, this 2003 Oceanis isn't the newest toy on the water, but that's reflected in the price, you're not paying a premium for shiny. The Oceanis 473 is a respected workhorse design, and Theta Yachts' perfect rating suggests competent care.

Watch the reviews. One five-star review is genuinely encouraging, but it's only one data point, you'll want to dig into recent client feedback before committing, especially given the yacht's age. Ask Theta directly about recent refits or upgrades to cabins and systems; that'll tell you whether they're maintaining her properly.

The marina & destination

Based at Nikiana Marina, in Lefkada, Greece. Pigasos is operated by Theta Yachts.

Why this is a great starting point

Nikiana Marina sits on Lefkada's east coast, offering straightforward access to the Ionian islands' protected waters and steady northwesterly winds typical of summer conditions. Week 1 charters naturally progress south through Meganisi and Kalamos, or north toward Skorpios and Ithaca, with all anchorages lying within 15-25 nautical miles; the shallow, predictable conditions suit both experienced sailors and those returning to the water. The surrounding Ionian offers relatively short passages between islands, making it ideal for crews wanting to establish their rhythm without long overnight crossings.

Can Pigasos be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Pigasos 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 Pigasos?

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.
