What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
17 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Perfect for groups This 49-footer sleeps six across three cabins, making it excellent for families or small groups wanting to split costs. At €2,700/week, the price per person becomes genuinely competitive when you're sharing.
Well-equipped cruiser The Sun Odyssey 49 is a proven, comfortable cruising design with modern conveniences like inverter power, bimini, and sprayhood, essentials for longer journeys or mixed-weather sailing. It's the kind of boat that handles both day sailing and comfortable overnight passages without fuss.
Solid value proposition With a modest €2,500 deposit and sub-€2,800 weekly rates, this represents fair pricing for a boat of this size and condition. OceanMed's reputation as a Mediterranean operator is reassuring for those flying in from the US or UK.
One heads-up A 2009-build means systems and engines have had fair use; confirm maintenance records and battery/engine condition before committing, especially if planning longer offshore sailing. Clarify the exact base location too, since it wasn't specified, charter logistics depend heavily on airport proximity.
