SailChecker Expert View

Solid Family Cruiser The Oceanis 48 is a well-established cruising platform that suits families or small groups wanting comfortable, relaxed sailing without constant hands-on work. With 5 cabins sleeping up to 12, it offers flexible accommodation for mixed-age crews or multiple couples.

Modern Conveniences You're getting a 2018 boat with genuinely useful kit: solar panels and an inverter mean less generator noise, the bow thruster makes close-quarters manoeuvring stress-free, and autopilot takes the edge off longer passages. The swimming platform and dinghy make exploring anchorages straightforward.

Fair Pricing At €3,420 per week with a modest €2,500 deposit, this sits mid-range for a five-cabin cruiser in her size and age, reasonable value if the base location suits your destination of choice (note: the base wasn't specified in your data, so confirm flight accessibility before booking). DEDA's perfect 5-star rating from their limited reviews is encouraging.

One Reality Check A 14.6-metre boat sleeping 12 means tight quarters when full, this is an *accommodation* yacht rather than a spacious floating villa. If your group values privacy or elbow room, you might find fewer, larger cabins elsewhere worth the extra cost.

The marina & destination

Based at Port of Volos, in Volos, Greece. Orion XII is operated by DEDA Sailing - Sailing Holidays Hub.

Frequently asked questions
Can Orion XII be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Orion XII 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 Orion XII?
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.
