Skiathos

Ideal for groups. This six-cabin Sun Odyssey 490 sleeps up to 12, making it perfect for extended families or friend groups wanting to share costs on a week-long sailing holiday. At €4,576 per week, you're looking at roughly €380, €765 per person depending on cabin configuration, excellent value for that sleeping capacity.

Well-equipped modern cruiser. Built in 2021, Marina 2 comes with genuinely useful gear: electric winches (easier sailing for mixed-ability crews), bow thruster (handy in tight anchorages), solar panels, autopilot, and chart plotters in the cockpit. The sprayhood and bimini mean you won't be entirely exposed in choppy conditions, and a dinghy is included for exploring shallow bays.

Smart money move. For groups chartering internationally, especially flying in from North America or Europe, splitting a modern, reliable yacht like this often works out cheaper per head than booking multiple smaller boats. The 2021 build means fewer mechanical surprises, and Perfect Sailing's reputation as a established operator adds confidence.

One practical note: We don't have the base location listed here, so confirm where Marina 2 is based and factor in airport transfer time and ferry connections from your international hub. That detail matters when you're coordinating a dozen people across time zones.

The marina & destination

Based at Skiathos , in Skiathos, Greece. Marina 2 is operated by Perfect Sailing - Sailing Holidays Hub.

Port by Vessta

Why this is a great starting point

Skiathos marina sits at the north gateway to the Sporades, positioning you within easy reach of the tight island cluster of Skopelos, Alonnisos, and Skyros; week one typically involves 2-4 hour hops between well-sheltered anchorages and small ports with reliable tavernas. The northwest winds that dominate summer months funnel through the islands predictably, making the return journey north straightforward. You'll find the Pelion peninsula mainland coast offers good shelter if weather turns, and provisioning at Skiathos town is straightforward before departure.

Can Marina 2 be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Marina 2 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 Marina 2?

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.
