Kalimera

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. For damage it doesn't cover, your liability is usually limited to the security deposit, except where the operator's terms say otherwise. Operator terms: The Owner insures the yacht and equipment against fire, marine and collision risks, third-party damage and loss or damage in excess of 550.000 (wording unclear).

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~57 HP engine burns roughly 4.6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 97 L ≈ €189 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who holds the licence. Generally, though: 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 skipper handles navigation, mooring, anchoring and manoeuvring, keeps the deck and cockpit in order, and manages refuelling, water and port formalities at your expense. Interior cleaning and cooking aren't part of the skipper's role. The skipper navigates up to 6 hours a day unless agreed otherwise and motors in and out of ports.

If you request a hostess/steward, they do the daily shopping, prepare and serve breakfast and a light meal, and clean the communal areas daily. A third crew member as a chef can offer a full three-meal menu.

You or someone in your party must have the seamanship and sailing competence for the trip. You'll be asked to help the skipper with sailing, anchoring and mooring when needed, following the skipper's instructions.

Your skipper keeps everyone's safety and comfort first, looking at the crew's abilities and the current and forecast sea conditions. They decide the route and whether to spend the night at anchor or in port. They'll explain their reasoning and agree an alternative plan with you.

Yes. You can't break customs laws, fish or spearfish against local rules, or take archaeological objects, and drugs are prohibited on board. A serious breach can end the agreement, and you'd answer to the authorities. Children must also be supervised by an adult or nanny from your group at all times.

Lavrion's main port is a full-service modern hub handling everything from passenger ferries and freight to private yachts and cruise ships, so you'll find solid infrastructure and plenty of life around the docks. Read more →
