What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
19 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.
Perfect for smaller groups. The Sun Odyssey 36i is an ideal choice if you're chartering with 4, 6 people or want genuinely comfortable space for three couples. At just under 11 metres, she's nimble enough to explore Greek anchorages most larger yachts can't reach, yet spacious enough that you won't feel cramped.
Well-equipped and stylish. Celeste comes ready for relaxation with a teak cockpit, bimini for sun protection, and sprayhood for rougher days, plus modern navigation via chart plotter and entertainment sorted with the radio-CD player. These touches show the owner takes pride in her.
Excellent value proposition. At €1,749 per week from a Greek base, you're looking at roughly £150, 160 per person for a week's sailing in the Mediterranean; that's competitive for a three-cabin yacht with this kit. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable and reflects confidence in the boat's condition.
One practical note: The operator has only one review on record, so while their 5/5 rating is encouraging, you might want to request recent references or photos before committing, standard practice for any lesser-known charter company. International flights to Athens or another Greek gateway will get you close, but allow time for the final transfer to the actual mooring.
