New Sails 2023

Ideal for groups This 12.3m Sun Odyssey suits families or small groups of four to eight people looking for a comfortable, proven cruiser without breaking the bank. The three-cabin layout offers decent privacy, and at €2,700 per week, it's genuinely competitive for a boat of this capability.

Solid cruising kit Telchinis comes well-equipped for confident sailing: autopilot, chart plotter, bow thruster, and solar panels mean you'll have modern conveniences and real-world ease-of-use. The bimini and sprayhood are particularly welcome for extended time on deck, and that swimming platform transforms anchorages into proper relaxation spots.

Good value proposition You're getting a 2011 boat that's been actively chartered, which means proven reliability and regular maintenance, not a bargain basement vessel left to rot. The €2,000 deposit is reasonable, and at this price point with eight berths available, your per-person cost drops quickly for groups.

One practical note Paralos Yachts has a solid 4.2/5 rating, though only five reviews logged, worth asking them directly about recent engine work and condition reports before committing, especially if you're flying in from abroad and can't inspect beforehand.

The marina & destination

Based at Mandraki Port, in Rhodes, Greece. Telchinis is operated by Paralos Yachts.

Why this is a great starting point

Mandraki Port sits on Rhodes' northern coast, giving you immediate access to the southern Dodecanese islands; week one typically involves easy day hops to Symi, Tilos, and Nisyros, with consistent northerly winds supporting southeast passages. The sheltered harbour works well for provisioning and equipment checks before heading further south towards the Turkish coast or west into the central Aegean. This location suits sailors wanting protected anchorages and short sea-states while building confidence after a long flight.

Can Telchinis be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Telchinis 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 Telchinis?

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.
