What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for families The Sun Odyssey 440 is ideal for groups or families wanting comfort without compromise, four cabins and 10 berths mean everyone gets their own space, which matters on week-long trips. The 2022 build means modern systems and reliability, especially important when you're flying long distances to charter.
Well-equipped vessel This boat ticks all the boxes: solar panels keep power costs down, bow thruster and autopilot reduce crew fatigue, and the teak cockpit plus bimini make those Mediterranean afternoons genuinely pleasant. The snorkeling gear and dinghy are handy bonuses for exploring quieter anchorages beyond main ports.
Strong value proposition At €4,192 per week with a reputable 5-star operator (8 solid reviews), you're paying fairly for a modern, well-maintained boat that genuinely suits group charters. The low deposit (€600) is also refreshingly reasonable for a 13.4m yacht.
One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed here, so confirm your exact airport transfer time and whether English-speaking crew support is available, particularly useful if you're coordinating a transatlantic or Europe-to-Greece flight with multiple guests.
