What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
11 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.
I appreciate you sharing the details, but I'm missing some crucial information to give you a proper expert opinion on Principessa P.
The charter base location isn't listed , and that's actually essential for me to comment honestly on travel logistics, local sailing conditions, and value. Without knowing whether this yacht operates from the Mediterranean, Caribbean, or elsewhere, I can't assess whether it suits your plans or how convenient the transfer from your nearest international airport would be.
Similarly, I'd need to see the weekly charter rate to comment fairly on value for money. A 2015 Sun Odyssey 509 is a solid, well-designed cruiser , spacious for 4 cabins with good sailing performance , but price varies significantly by region and season.
Could you share the base location and weekly rate? Once I have those, I'll give you a straightforward take on whether Principessa P. is worth your consideration.
