What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
14 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 Sun Odyssey 509 is ideal if you're chartering with family or friends, six cabins and 12 berths mean everyone gets their own space without feeling cramped. The 2012 build is well-maintained, and at 15.4m it strikes a good balance between spaciousness and easy handling.
Smart cruising kit You've got solid essentials here: bow thruster makes tight anchorages manageable, autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, and the solar panels plus electric toilet keep things comfortable. The swimming platform and dinghy are genuine bonuses for exploring shallow bays and beach stops.
Excellent value At roughly €3,000 per week, this represents genuine value for a six-cabin cruiser, you're splitting costs across a decent-sized group, which makes per-person pricing very competitive. The €3,000 deposit is reasonable and standard.
One heads-up The operator has a solid 4.2-star rating on a small sample (5 reviews), so dig into those reviews before booking, check specifically for maintenance standards and pre-charter briefing quality. We'd also need to know the base location to assess your arrival logistics from a major European or US gateway airport.
