SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for larger groups With 5 cabins and 12 berths, Alessandra is a superb choice if you're chartering with extended family or friends, rare to find this much sleeping capacity on a 49-footer. The boat genuinely suits 8, 10 people comfortably if you don't mind sharing cabins.

Well-equipped cruiser The Sun Odyssey 509 is a proven, stable platform, and this one ticks practical boxes: solar panels for green cruising, bow thruster for easier marina work, sprayhood for everyday comfort, and useful extras like snorkeling gear and dinghy included. That's solid spec for bareboat or skippered charter.

Fair value proposition At €4,200 per week, you're paying roughly €350 per person for a 10-person group, genuinely competitive for a 2012 yacht this size with modern conveniences. ARCHON Yachting's perfect 5-star rating (albeit on just 4 reviews) suggests reliable service, which matters when flying internationally to an unfamiliar base.

One fair note The charter base location isn't listed here, so check where Alessandra actually operates, that'll dictate your flight logistics and whether it suits your sailing goals (Mediterranean, Adriatic, Caribbean). Some bases are easier to reach from the US or UK than others.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Kos, in Kos, Greece. Alessandra is operated by ARCHON Yachting.

G. Papandreou Str

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.

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