What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
17 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 starter choice The Sun Odyssey 36i is an ideal boat for couples or small groups taking their first bareboat sailing holiday, or for families wanting a manageable vessel without overwhelming complexity. At 10.7 metres with just two cabins, "Schnecke" offers genuine comfort without the maintenance headaches of larger yachts.
Smart practical features This boat comes well-equipped for its size: autopilot and chart plotter handle navigation, the sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded and protected, and the teak cockpit feels a touch more luxurious than basic spec. The inverter, holding tank, and fridge mean you can actually live aboard comfortably rather than constantly running to shore.
Solid value proposition A 2009 build with sensible equipment at a modest €2000 deposit sits in the sweet spot of reliable, unpretentious sailing, you're paying for a capable boat, not flashy upgrades. You'll find the 36i performs well in moderate conditions and handles like a proper cruiser.
One fair caveat SK-Yachting's base location isn't listed here, so we'd recommend confirming the flight logistics and whether the operator offers airport transfer assistance, crucial when you're flying internationally to collect the boat. A quick call to confirm their mainland European location and international client support will save headaches.
