About this yacht
Ponte in teak
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for larger groups. The Sun Odyssey 519 sleeps up to 12 across five cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to charter together without splitting boats. That capacity is genuinely hard to find at this size, so if you've got a decent-sized crew, this ticks a real box.

Well-equipped cruiser. The 2017 build includes a bow thruster and chart plotter as standard, plus creature comforts like an electric toilet, inverter, and bimini, all the bits that make longer passages and hot-weather sailing more comfortable. The sprayhood is a nice touch too for keeping dry in changeable conditions.

Solid value proposition. At this age and spec, the €3,500 deposit suggests fair daily rates for a five-cabin yacht; you're spreading costs across a large group, which works out well per person. The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 is a proven, reliable platform with good resale appeal, so operators maintain them well.

One practical note. You'll need a confident skipper or be prepared to hire one, a 15.8m yacht with 12 berths demands solid seamanship, especially if your crew is mixed ability. Also confirm exactly which charter base this operates from, as that affects flight connections from the US or Europe significantly.

The marina & destination

Based at Porto di Tropea, in Tropea, Italy. Kalos is operated by Marimari.

Why this is a great starting point

Porto di Tropea sits on Calabria's Tyrrhenian coast and provides straightforward access to the Aeolian Islands, reachable in 2-3 days of sailing north. Week 1 typically involves working up the coast toward Stromboli and Panarea with moderate summer winds from the north; the route rewards slower cruisers with stops at smaller Calabrian anchorages before committing to the exposed crossing. The marina itself offers good provisioning in town, though holding ground in the approaches can be variable, so confirm conditions with the harbourmaster before departure.

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