Lagoon 42

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.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~114 HP engines burn roughly 9.1 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 191 L ≈ €372 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans. Many skippers run one engine on passage to roughly halve fuel use — ask your operator if that’s fine for your boat.

Not personally — a skipper comes with this boat and 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.

Tucked into the southwest coast of Syros, Finikas is a sheltered Cycladic marina with around 110 m of quay space both inside the inner basin and along the outer windward side — enough room to get settled without the chaos of bigger ports. Read more →

April–October, hot and dry with the strong northerly Meltemi wind peaking in July–August, especially across the Cyclades.
