A/C, GENERATOR

Solid mid-size cruiser The Sun Odyssey 469 is a proven, comfortable sailboat that suits families, small groups, or mixed-ability crews who want an easy-handling vessel without the learning curve of something larger. At 14.1 metres, she's spacious enough for real comfort but nimble enough that less experienced sailors won't feel overwhelmed.

Well-equipped for cruising This boat ticks the boxes: four cabins sleep eight, there's air conditioning, a generator, solar panels, bow thruster for tight anchorages, and thoughtful touches like cockpit cushions and snorkeling gear included. The autopilot and chart plotter mean less fatigue on longer passages, which matters when you're flying in from abroad and want to actually enjoy your week.

Fair value proposition A 2014 model with this spec, including dinghy, sprayhood, and modern navigation, represents solid mid-range pricing for a bareboat charter. You're getting a reliable platform without paying premium rates for a brand-new build, which is sensible if you're booking from overseas and want decent bang for your money.

Check the base location The operator (Main Sailing) and charter base aren't specified here, so before committing, confirm where she's actually moored, that'll determine your airport transfer time and how convenient she is to reach on arrival day. Knowing whether English-speaking support is on-site matters too, especially if you need assistance after a long journey.

The marina & destination

Based at Nikiana Marina, in Lefkada, Greece. Kos 469.1 is operated by Main Sailing.

Why this is a great starting point

Nikiana Marina sits on Lefkada's east coast, offering straightforward access to the Ionian islands' protected waters and steady northwesterly winds typical of summer conditions. Week 1 charters naturally progress south through Meganisi and Kalamos, or north toward Skorpios and Ithaca, with all anchorages lying within 15-25 nautical miles; the shallow, predictable conditions suit both experienced sailors and those returning to the water. The surrounding Ionian offers relatively short passages between islands, making it ideal for crews wanting to establish their rhythm without long overnight crossings.

Can Kos 469.1 be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Kos 469.1 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 Kos 469.1?

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.
