SailChecker note

16 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.

I appreciate you sharing this listing, but I need to be honest: there's something missing here that makes it impossible for me to give you a proper assessment.

Critical issue: This 10-metre motorboat shows zero cabins and zero berths, which means there's nowhere to sleep on board. That's unusual for a charter vessel and suggests either a data entry error or this is a day-boat only, which would be a very different product.

What I'd need: Before recommending this to anyone, I'd want to clarify the actual sleeping arrangements with Notos Yachting directly. Is this genuinely a day-charter boat, or are there bunks/cabins the listing hasn't captured? The base location is also missing from your data, which matters for international guests planning flights and transfers.

Next step: I'd suggest contacting the operator to confirm the vessel's actual layout and intended use. Once we have those details, I can give you a proper sense of value and who it suits. The snorkeling kit is a nice touch if it's a day boat in a Mediterranean location, but I can't recommend without clarity on the sleeping question.
