What KateBot thinks Strengths and trade-offs KateBot generated · ~200 words

Perfect for groups With 5 cabins sleeping 10, MYRDIA is ideal for families or friend groups wanting to share costs on a premium sailing experience. The 2018 Oceanis 51.1 is a proven, well-designed cruiser that handles beautifully in most conditions.

Smart comfort features The water maker, air conditioning, and generator mean you're genuinely comfortable on longer passages, no rationing fresh water or sweating through Mediterranean summers. A bow thruster and electric toilet round out the modern conveniences that make extended charters stress-free.

Strong value proposition At €3,480 per week with a modest €3,500 deposit, this yacht delivers solid bang for money when split among 8, 10 people. You're getting a recent-model boat with serious cruising range and reliability.

One real consideration We don't have the charter base location listed, so confirm transfer times from your nearest international airport before booking, some Mediterranean bases are 3+ hours' drive, which matters when coordinating a large group arrival. Once you know the base, check whether Co Yacht includes provisioning or offers a skipper option, as managing a 51-footer with a full cabin list benefits from experience.

The marina & destination Athens · Greece Alimos Marina

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. MYRDIA is operated by Co Yacht.

Poseidonos Avenue

Why this is a great starting point

Alimos Marina sits just south of Athens, offering straightforward access to the Saronic Gulf's island-hopping routes; week one typically involves sailing to nearby Aegina, Poros, and Hydra, with predictable northerly winds in summer making these 15-30 nautical mile passages reliable for mixed-ability crews. The protected anchorages and short hops suit charter clients recovering from long-haul flights, while the marina's proximity to Athens airport (30 minutes by car) minimizes transfer time. Alimos itself has full facilities and is a logical base for exploring the sheltered Saronic islands before pushing further south toward the Peloponnese if conditions allow.

Possible routes 3 hand-picked itineraries Greece · three classic charter areas

A starting point, not a script — pick one as a template and we'll tailor the dates, stops, and pace to your crew.

Saronic Gulf 7 days · ~120 nm · 5 stops

Short legs, reliable wind, history at every stop. Best first-charter route in Greece.

1 Athens (Alimos)
The main Saronic charter base; 25 minutes from the airport.
2 Aegina
Easy first-day sail; try the pistachios. Anchor at Perdika.
3 Poros
Narrow channel between island and mainland; charming town quay.
4 Hydra
No cars on the island. Tie alongside the working harbour for the evening.
5 Spetses
Old shipbuilding island, elegant. Old harbour is the spot.
Cyclades 7-10 days · ~180 nm · 5 stops

Meltemi wind July-August. Plan for one weather day — and book the marina in advance for the islands you do not want to miss.

1 Athens
Departure. Check the wind forecast and consider clockwise vs counter-clockwise.
2 Kea
Sheltered bays on the south side; first-night-out easy.
3 Paros
Naoussa for the small-village vibe; Parikia if you need provisions.
4 Naxos
The biggest island in the Cyclades. Mountain villages worth a hire-car day.
5 Mykonos
Tie alongside in the new marina; the old town quays are for tourist boats.
Ionian 7 days · ~120 nm · 4 stops

Light, predictable winds. Easiest sailing in Greece — most-loved by families and first-timers stepping up.

1 Lefkas
Charter base. Provision in the town; the bridge opens on the hour.
2 Meganisi
Vathy or Spartochori; both have quayside tavernas with welcome moorings.
3 Ithaca
Vathi harbour for the night, then to Frikes for the quiet morning.
4 Kefalonia
Fiskardo is the postcard town. Book the quay.
Frequently asked questions 14 answers Charter basics · deposits · what's included
Can MYRDIA be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter MYRDIA 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 MYRDIA?
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.
Bareboat or skippered — which suits our crew?
Bareboat is for crews with at least one experienced skipper (RYA Day Skipper / ICC level) plus a co-skipper, and a track record of similar passages. Skippered charters add a professional skipper for typically £150–£250 per day — recommended if anyone in your group is light on Mediterranean experience, if you want a relaxed week without responsibility, or if the area is new to you. You can also hire a hostess (cook + cabin help) on top.
Can we sail to a neighbouring country during the charter?
Sometimes, with the operator's written consent and the right paperwork. Common cross-borders: Croatia → Montenegro, Greece → Turkey, BVI → USVI. Most operators charge a one-off cruising-permit fee (typically €100–€300) and need 4–8 weeks' notice. Tell us at quote time and we'll arrange it — spontaneous border-crossing during the trip usually isn't allowed.
Do I need travel insurance on top of the charter insurance?
Yes. The yacht is insured by the operator for damage and third-party liability, but that doesn't cover you. Charter cancellation insurance (typically 4–5% of the charter fee) covers you if you have to cancel last-minute; standard travel insurance covers medical, flight, and personal-effects loss. We can recommend a UK broker that bundles both.
What happens if there's bad weather on the day?
For day-to-day weather you'll plan the week to avoid the worst — the Adriatic and Aegean have very predictable wind patterns. If a serious storm makes the start-day handover impossible, the operator delays check-in until conditions improve and refunds any lost days. The yacht itself is insured against weather damage, so you're not exposed.
Can I hold this yacht while I decide?
Yes — an option holds the yacht in your name for typically 48–72 hours at no cost. Useful if you're waiting on the rest of the crew to confirm, comparing it against another yacht, or sorting flights. Ask us when you enquire and we'll arrange the option with the operator.
