Odysseas S

Odysseas S is a well-appointed Bavaria 50 sailboat based at Salamis Yachting Club, your gateway to the Saronic Gulf and beyond. Built in 2008, this 15-metre vessel combines proven seaworthiness with comfortable accommodation for groups and families seeking an authentic Greek sailing experience. With five cabins sleeping up to twelve guests and three heads, Odysseas S is generously proportioned for a week of exploration among the islands that define the Athenian Riviera—from the pine-clad shores of Aegina to the quieter anchorages around Poros and Hydra. Life aboard revolves around ease and self-sufficiency. A reliable refrigerator keeps provisions fresh throughout your week, while the onboard dinghy opens access to hidden coves and remote tavernas unreachable by larger vessels. The cockpit is shaded by a bimini, offering respite during midday heat, and a sprayhood protects the companionway during passage-making. Solar panels and a bow thruster reduce the demands of boat handling, while an autopilot allows you to settle into the rhythm of sailing without constant helm work. Navigation is straightforward with a full GPS chartplotter, and electric toilets add a layer of comfort often absent from bareboat charters of this size. Odysseas S suits groups of friends, extended families, or couples travelling with friends who value both independence and comfort. A typical week might unfold with morning sails to Aegina's Temple of Aphaia, afternoons anchored in crystalline water where you can swim directly from the platform, and evenings ashore sampling local catch at waterfront restaurants. The boat's 57-kilowatt Volvo engine ensures reliable motoring when the wind drops, a common occurrence in summer months. Picture your final evening: anchored off Hydra as the sun descends behind the Peloponnese, the boat gently swinging to her chain, the smell of grilled octopus drifting across the water from the village above, and the knowledge that tomorrow brings another day of unhurried exploration through some of the Mediterranean's most storied waters.
