Manta

Yes — every boat on charter.boats is insured by its operator; we require it. The policy covers the vessel for fire, collision and third-party liability. You're only responsible for damage it doesn't cover, and that's capped at the security deposit. Operator terms: Charterer responsible for all loss or damage to yacht and equipment not recoverable under insurance policy.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~38 HP engine burn roughly 3 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 63 L ≈ €123 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Two crew with proof of competence are required — a skipper holding an ICC or national equivalent and a co-skipper who signs a declaration of sailing experience.

Your party should include at least one qualified skipper and one experienced crew member, and never more people than the boat's maximum. Only those listed on the crew manifest may stay aboard.

On a bareboat charter we may ask you and your crew to demonstrate your handling and navigation skills at sea with our representative aboard. This time counts as part of your charter, and if we're not satisfied we may place a paid crew member aboard or end the agreement.

Sailing is limited to the Greek seas. On a bareboat charter, plan your route so you reach the farthest point within the first third of the trip and are within about 40 NM of the return harbour two days before the end.

Please don't leave port or anchorage when the wind is or is forecast above force 6 on the Beaufort scale, when authorities have banned sailing, or when the boat or crew's safety is in any doubt. Reduce sail promptly when needed.

The boat is for your private pleasure only. Racing, towing other craft (except in an emergency), sub-letting, and sailing at night without working navigation lights or a proper watch are not permitted.

The Port of Volos sits right in the heart of Thessaly's capital, putting you steps away from the city's famous tsipouradika — the waterfront tavernas where locals pair tsipouro shots with endless small plates of seafood. Read more →
