Yacht description of the Sun Odyssey 47 : This is a top quality boat: it is professionally maintained and constantly upgraded with new sails, sprayhood & bimini, GPS-colour chartplotter, new upholstery, new varnish, new anchor, new chain, new engine battery 2021, brand new dinghy October 2021, new Volvo seal 2020, new cooker, new radio/CD/USB player, boom vang rebuild, new genoa furling drum 2022, ruddder rebuilt 2022, new shower drain pumps, new aft heads toilet pump 2022, Lofrans 1500W Tigres windlass rebuilt 2022, new extra-long shore power cable, new control unit for the autopilot, rebuilt gearbox, rebuilt steering system, etc. For 2020 we renewed stanchion bases and re-sealed the toerail. - Equipment as follows: new sprayhood 2022, new genoa end-2019, new genoa sheets & reefing line 2021, new mainsail 2017, new salon leatherette upholstery 2017, new cabin mattresses upholstery 2022, new GPS-colour chartplotter 2017, roller sails, bimini, autopilot, wind instruments, 2 frigoboat fridges, radio/cassette/CD/MP3-player with inside/outside speakers, shore power, battery charger, 220V circuit & sockets, folding aluminium passerelle, liferaft. - Mainsail is roller furling.

Please note that this high-quality boat is a special model that was only produced by Jeanneau for a short period because it was too expensive to build. This is because it has following unique design features : Engine located in middle of boat (not aft as usual) allowing propeller positioning near centre of gravity This positioning largely frees boat from usual "prop-walk" - the tendency of boat to move to port or starboard when going aft The rudder is exceptionally deep (nearly as deep as the keel) and hung as far aft as possible This rudder size/far aft positioning coupled with near-central prop location makes for excellent boat control forward and aft. In conclusion, the design is such as to provide top boat steering control. These design features require special high-cost construction engineering, and are very rarely found in other boats. The other high-cost design features are: Quality blond teak joinery with curved surfaces inside giving a great feeling of luxury (no plastic) and heavy hull build with deep underwater surfaces providing excellent heavy weather handling. Please note that this is not at the expense of light airs sailing performance due to the powerful sailing rig. Also the double frigoboat fridges (much more expensive than normal electric fridge) run off the engine (not off the batteries) and provide constant 24-hour refrigeration without risking flat batteries as they are engine-compressor driven.

Great value cruiser The Sun Odyssey 47 is a proven, forgiving design that suits both experienced sailors and confident intermediates looking for a relaxed week. At €2,040/week with a modest €2,500 deposit, it's genuinely affordable for a four-cabin boat in this size range.

Solid, unpretentious vessel Built in 1995, "Sweet Sue II" offers reliable performance and the kind of bombproof Jeanneau engineering that's held up well over nearly 30 years. You'll get comfortable cruising speeds, decent storage, and enough cabin space for two couples or a small family without feeling cramped.

One fair caveat At nearly 30 years old, you're looking at a boat that's had a life, expect honest wear rather than showroom polish. Budget time for the operator's pre-charter briefing and have realistic expectations about vintage systems and cosmetics.

Smart charter choice If you're flying in from the US or northern Europe, Aegean Yachts' Aegean base makes sense for logistics. This boat punches well above its price point for a summer cruise in Greek or Turkish waters, straightforward sailing without the premium marina fees.

The marina & destination

Based at Alimos Marina, in Athens, Greece. Sweet Sue II is operated by Aegean Yachts.

Poseidonos Avenue

Why this is a great starting point

Alimos Marina sits just south of Athens, offering straightforward access to the Saronic Gulf's island-hopping routes; week one typically involves sailing to nearby Aegina, Poros, and Hydra, with predictable northerly winds in summer making these 15-30 nautical mile passages reliable for mixed-ability crews. The protected anchorages and short hops suit charter clients recovering from long-haul flights, while the marina's proximity to Athens airport (30 minutes by car) minimizes transfer time. Alimos itself has full facilities and is a logical base for exploring the sheltered Saronic islands before pushing further south toward the Peloponnese if conditions allow.

Can Sweet Sue II be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Sweet Sue II 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 Sue II?

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.
