A Truly Fun Boat to Sail!
SailChecker Expert View

Perfect starter charter Calliope suits couples and small families wanting an easy, modern sailing experience without a steep learning curve. At 13.2 metres with 3 cabins and solid standard kit, she's comfortable for up to 8 people without feeling cramped for a week away.

Clever kit included The 2023 build means reliable electronics, chart plotter and bow thruster take stress out of tight anchorages, while the sprayhood and bimini keep everyone comfortable in changeable weather. Dinghy and snorkeling gear are genuinely useful additions that save you rental costs.

Honest value proposition At €7,060 per week, you're paying fair money for a new, well-equipped boat with a reasonable deposit. The price sits right in the sweet spot for a bareboat of this size and spec, not budget, not luxury, just sensible.

One caveat worth noting The charter base location isn't listed here, so we can't assess your flight logistics or how long the airport transfer takes. Before booking, confirm where Calliope is based and whether the operator offers airport pickup, that matters when you're flying in from abroad.

The marina & destination

Based at Olympic Marina, in Lavrion, Greece. Calliope is operated by X-Yachting Sailing Center.

Why this is a great starting point

Olympic Marina in Lavrion sits at the southern gateway to the Saronic Gulf, giving you immediate access to the Cyclades and the sheltered island-hopping routes of the Aegean. From here, week 1 typically involves sailing southeast towards Hydra, Spetses, and Poros, with established anchorages and steady northerly winds that suit most abilities. The marina's location 45 minutes from Athens airport and proximity to less-crowded alternatives to Mykonos and Santorini makes it ideal if you want Aegean cruising without the weekend crowds of central charter bases.

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