About this yacht
Bowthruster, Teak on Cockpit
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for larger groups. The Queens of Utrecht sleeps up to 11 across six cabins, making it ideal for families or friends chartering together, you're getting genuine accommodation without cramped compromises. At 14.2 meters, it's spacious enough to feel comfortable even when fully booked.

Well-equipped for comfort. Solar panels, bow thruster, autopilot, and a full suite of navigation gear mean less fussing and more relaxing; the snorkeling kit and dinghy are genuine bonuses for exploring beyond the mooring. The bimini and cockpit cushions show the owner understands Greek sailing conditions.

Solid value proposition. For a 2020 Sun Odyssey 490 with this specification and cabin count, the pricing sits reasonably in the charter market, especially if you're splitting costs across 8-11 people. The low €600 deposit is straightforward.

One honest note. With only two operator reviews on file, Hellenic Yachting's track record is still building; that 4.5/5 rating is encouraging but a smaller sample than we'd ideally like to see. I'd recommend checking directly about their support responsiveness, especially if you're flying in from the US or UK and need smooth logistics.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Perigiali, in Lefkada, Greece. Queens of Utrecht is operated by Hellenic Yachting.

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Perigiali sits on Lefkada's east coast, offering direct access to the Ionian Islands' sheltered waters and the tight cluster of islands around Nidri. Week 1 typically takes you south through Meganisi, Kalamos, and Kastos, all easily reached in day sails with consistent afternoon northwesterlies; you can also head north to Skorpios and Madouri if conditions favour it. The marina works well for sailors wanting protected anchorages and short hops between islands rather than long open-water passages.

Frequently asked questions
Can Queens of Utrecht be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Queens of Utrecht 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 Queens of Utrecht?
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.
