ARGO (Oceanis Clipper 393)

Perfect for couples or small families. The Oceanis 393 is a proven cruiser that suits groups of 4, 6 looking for relaxed sailing with modern comforts, air con, heating, and Wi-Fi mean you won't rough it, which matters when you've flown long-haul to get there.

Standout practical kit. Solar panels, inverter, and a good battery system keep you independent; the sprayhood and bimini protect you from weather and sun during those long sailing days, and snorkeling gear plus the platform make waterside stops genuinely enjoyable.

Excellent value proposition. At €1,783/week with a modest €200 deposit, you're getting a well-equipped 2002 boat at a fair price, older hull, yes, but equipped like a modern charter yacht and backed by Blue Charters' reputation in the Mediterranean.

One honest note. At 22 years old, systems like air con and the electric toilet will need attention occasionally, so don't expect the reliability of a newer boat, budget a contingency and check with Blue Charters about recent service records before committing.
