What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Who it suits This 12-metre beauty is ideal for small groups or families wanting a proper sailing experience without the complexity of a larger vessel. With 2 cabins sleeping up to 6, you'll want to go with close friends or family who don't mind cosy quarters.
Standout features You're getting a genuinely well-equipped modern boat here, bow thruster, chart plotter, and a full sprayhood make sailing comfortable, while the dinghy and snorkeling kit mean you can explore beyond the mooring field. The 2022 build means everything is current and reliable.
Value for money At roughly €6,500 per week all-in, this is solid mid-range pricing for a newish, properly outfitted sailing yacht in the Mediterranean. You're paying for quality kit and a boat that handles well rather than paying premium rates for size.
One thing to note The base location isn't specified in your details, so I'd recommend checking with X-Yachting directly about airport proximity and transfer logistics before booking, that matters when you're flying long-haul to get there.
