IONA

**IONA** is a 39ft Bavaria Cruiser, perfectly suited for a crew of six thanks to its comfortable three-cabin layout, featuring two double aft cabins and one double forward. With her broad beam, the interior feels spacious and practical. The galley is designed to be functional on either tack, supported by the high seat back on the island settee, which completes the four-sided dining area. This layout also allows for a full-size navigation table and a generously sized shared aft head. The two aft cabins offer excellent sleeping quarters with ample standing room for dressing comfortably, while the forward master cabin provides even more space, featuring a large berth, a dressing seat, and a private head for added convenience. IONA comes equipped with an impressive specification list, including a bimini, sprayhood, folding wheel, ROCNA anchor, and in-mast furling. She is ideal for cruising with family or friends, combining comfort, performance, and reliable strength in one beautifully balanced package. The boat is based in Vliho Bay, offering direct access to the Southern Ionian Islands. The base includes a pontoon, restaurant, hot showers, Wi-Fi, and a friendly team ready to assist with everything from transfers to route planning. The yacht charter price includes- • First and last night pontoon fees on our Vliho Yacht Club pontoon. • Dinghy and outboard (including outboard fuel). • Full fuel and water tanks. • Bed linen and towels (beach towels not included). • Starter pack which includes tea, coffee, sugar, salt & pepper, water, cleaning products, bin bags, tea towels and toilet roll. • Masks and snorkles. • Final cleaning of the yacht. • Route planning. • Maps & pilot book (including Rod Heikle) • 24/7 support. The only extras you pay for are- • Yacht diesel used during the charter. We arrange for the fuel to be delivered directly to the boat at our pontoon on your return. The diesel tank must be refilled and payment is made directly to the diesel truck driver. Check in is 16.00 pm, we always try to have the boat ready earlier if you are arriving before 16.00 pm but we cannot guarantee this. Check out is 10.00 am, we ask that you arrive back at our pontoon before 5.00 pm the day before or between 8.30 am and 9.00 am on the day. The skipper of the boat must hold a current qualification/certification from their country that allows them to charter a boat of the same type and size. The Port Police require the skipper to sign a declaration confirming the above. An ICC is required for skippers from the UK. Please note: If you are booking a bareboat charter (without one of our skippers) we require a 2500 Euros refundable security deposit. As part of check-in, we ask that you complete and sign a credit card security form. This would only be retained in the unlikely event of major damage to the boat. We do however understand that things can happen at sea, and you may lose a fender or a towel overboard etc, but these are just charged at cost price on your return. We also offer additional services to ensure you have the best holiday! • WIFI Hub • Stand up paddle board • Provisioning • Additional bed linen and towels
