YACHT CHARTER

An innovative approach to Yachting and Cruises

OUR GROUP of companies has appeared in the horizon of Yachting and Tourist activities in 1980. The Group has provided a number of innovations in Yachting and Cruises Industry by creating new markets and with the introduction of new products.

We do have our operations in the Caribbean, Turkey, Croatia, Italy, France, Greece and Malta with a fleet consisting of 400 yachts of all kinds (Sailing – Catamaran – Motor Yachts, owned or exclusively managed).

From the 24 subject bases, 9 operate in Greece (Athens – Kos – Rhodes – Corfu – Lefkas – Skiathos – Paros – Mykonos - Thessaloniki), 2 in Turkey (Bodrum – Göcek), 1 of them operate in the Caribbean (St. Martin), 6 in Croatia (Pula – Biograd – Trogir – Krvavica – Zadar – Split), 4 in Italy (Puntone – Sant Agata di Militello – Marsala – Portisco), 1 in France (Bormes Les Mimosas) and 1 in Malta (Kalkara marina).

This broad geographical coverage has been rewarded by an extensive number of loyal customers, who are repeatedly taking advantages of the privileges the Group renders to them.

One of the main concerns of the company, to offer adequate services, led to the acquisition of marina of Gouvia in Corfu, marina of Kalamata in the Peloponnese, Lefkas marina and Zea marina in Athens-Piraeus. Therefore, our group is the only yacht charter company worldwide that owns 4 marinas, with total availability of 2800 berths.

The Group has spared no expense and effort in keeping a high standard fleet, financing the never-ending training of all crews and the staff of the company and pursuing the improvement of the offered services to achieve the results of today. Through all these efforts the Group enjoys a rocksolid credibility from all parties concerned. The management philosophy focus in embracing all activities through which the needs and expectations of the customer and the objectives of the organization are satisfied in the most efficient and cost effective way, by maximizing the potential of all employees in a continuing drive for improvement.

Our strategy is to take all advantages of a large international operation, whilst still maintaining the personal touch and care; as this «plus» is a guarantee to our clients.

A wide range of fully equipped yachts

Every year we add value to our existing programme by buying brand new yachts, the latest models, progressively renewing our fleet. Our yachts range from 32 to 56 feet, from 2 to 6 cabins, we offer you the right yacht, at the right price. We specially order our yachts with the most up to date, comprehensive and extensive equipment, for safety, navigation and comfort. Our experience in yacht chartering gives us the thrust to demand from the constructors an extensive number of modifications (bigger engines, additional portholes, roller mainsails, electric WC pumps, holding tanks etc.) in order to offer you the maximum satisfaction during your holiday aboard our yachts. The optimum conditions of a family run organization allows the company to be flexible to adapt policies which deliver to its clients effectively and efficiently the desired satisfactions, while at the same time their well being is preserved. Our main concern is to offer the highest quality standards at reasonable price. This fact is further supported by the diversification of our offered services in the following three lines:

  • PRESTIGE line, for customers who wish to rent the best of the yachts, including all brand new models and equipment to the highest standards, with spray-hood, bimini top, cockpit cushions, electric windlass, electric refrigerator, warm water, autopilot, GPS, plotter (in the Mediterranean), anemometer, Radio-CD, cockpit speakers, 220V shore supply & battery charger, electric WC pumps, holding tanks. All yachts are maximum 3 years old.
  • CLASS line, for customers who wish a rather “regular” yacht, well equipped but they don’t care much of getting the updated yacht and model. All yachts are maximum 5 years old.
  • ECONOMIC line, includes yachts well maintained and well equipped, with a charter rate well adapted to the smaller budgets.

FLOTILLA SAILING

Our group have over 17 years experience of sailing holidays in the Mediterranean, to offer flotilla sailing in two of the best cruising areas in Greece.

Choose from a huge range of yachts in our fleet ranging from 34’ to 56’, giving you an unrivalled range of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cabin yachts, all highly specified and equipped for your cruising comfort – check out what’s included on page 7 of our flotilla-brochure. With so many yachts to choose from there’s sure to be one to suit you. Groups of families and friends can choose matching or different sized yachts.

What is a Flotilla?

Flotillas are the sociable way to sail. You have the freedom of skippering your own yacht during the day but with the support of a British lead crew with an experienced skipper and hostess, providing weather forecasts guiding you on the best itinerary, helping you to moor up in the evenings and sorting out any queries you may have.

We aim to ensure a friendly flotilla with a maximum of 10 yachts sailing with each lead crew. This allows you to visit the small harbours and anchorages which make sailing in Greece so special.

People choose flotillas for a variety of reasons. It’s popular with those who appreciate the support of the lead crew but also with those who have sailed many times before who enjoy the sociable side of a flotilla and the local knowledge and reassurance that the lead crew provide – useful if you’re new to the cruising area. During the school holidays flotillas are particularly popular with families who enjoy an active holiday together.

Our Saronic flotilla starts from the heart of Athens and cruises the beautiful islands of the Saronic Gulf, an ideal area for flotilla sailing offering reliable winds of moderate strength, short distances and scenic harbours. You’ll visit the picturesque islands of Aegina, Hydra, Spetses and Poros as well as mainland towns such as Epidavros with its famous ancient theatre. Our flotilla is based in Kalamaki Marina in Athens. You’ll be met at the airport and taken to your yacht – a 40-minute taxi ride straight to the marina. This is a convenient place to start your holiday, without the need to take a hydrofoil or lengthy land transfer.

Kalamaki is a short taxi ride from the centre of Athens. On your first evening, enjoy dinner in the famous Plaka area of Athens, with a view of the Acropolis, or chill out in one of the restaurants in or near the marina. With daily flights you could plan a few days in Athens before or after your flotilla for a city break to soak up the culture and history of this amazing city,recently given a facelift for the 2004 Olympic Games.

What experience do I need?

To sail a yacht on flotilla you should have skippered a cruising yacht previously, either on flotilla or in the UK. On the Saronic Flotilla from Athens we can offer sail training for less experienced skippers. If you have crewed on previous sailing holidays or have motoryacht experience, you can improve your yacht handling skills with an instructor for a 3-day flotilla course. If you don’t have any previous sailing experience, take the instructor for the 6-day course.
