Solid Mid-Range Choice The Sun Odyssey 42DS is a proven, dependable cruiser that suits confident intermediate sailors or couples wanting a comfortable week exploring Greece's Ionian islands. At 12.9 metres with three cabins and eight berths, it's spacious enough for small groups without being unwieldy to handle.

Smart Practical Features You get the essentials that matter: bow thruster for easier mooring, solar panels to offset generator use, autopilot for longer passages, and a sprayhood to keep the cockpit dry in rougher conditions. The outboard engine and inverter are sensible touches for relaxed cruising rather than racing.

Good Value Proposition At roughly €1,327 per week with a modest €2,000 deposit, this represents honest pricing for a well-equipped, mid-sized yacht in a popular Mediterranean location. You're paying for comfort and convenience rather than luxury or cutting-edge specs.

One Real Consideration The 2011 build means this boat is over a decade old—nothing alarming for a Jeanneau, but factor in that systems like the chart plotter, electrics, and engine may need attention soon. Request a full inventory report and recent service records before committing, especially if you're flying long-haul from North America or northern Europe.

The marina & destination

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. Sweet Alis is operated by Sailing Ionian Sea .

East Shore

Can Sweet Alis be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Sweet Alis 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 Sweet Alis?

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.
