Sofia Star 1

Sailing from Marina Delta Kallithea in northern Greece, Sofia Star 1 is a 2004 Ocean Star 51.2 offering six guests the perfect balance of comfort and authentic exploration across the Aegean. This three-cabin, 16-metre sailboat combines the spaciousness needed for a week-long voyage with the intimacy that makes shared moments—whether gathered under the bimini on deck or anchored in a quiet cove—truly memorable. Ideal for groups of friends or multi-generational families seeking both independence and reliable onboard systems, she's equipped with a 100 hp engine, bow thruster, and autopilot, making her accessible to sailors of varying experience levels while opening up the region's most rewarding cruising grounds. Life aboard Sofia Star 1 revolves around her well-appointed saloon and generous deck space. A generator, watermaker, and heating ensure your comfort through variable Greek weather, while three heads and a proper galley support a crew of six without compromise. The bimini and sprayhood shield you from the elements during passage, and the dinghy opens access to secluded anchorages and waterfront tavernas beyond the reach of larger vessels. Television and a voltage converter allow you to stay connected if needed, though most guests find themselves naturally unplugging as days fill with sailing, swimming, and exploration. The Aegean from Kallithea is a sailor's landscape of pine-clad islands, turquoise shallows, and ancient settlements. Your week typically unfolds between the Sporades and northern Dodecanese—islands like Skiathos, Alonissos, and Patmos reward unhurried sailing and frequent stops. Snorkeling gear invites you into crystalline waters; the spinnaker rewards downwind passages; and the autopilot grants time to simply watch the horizon. Three heads and ample cabin space mean everyone enjoys privacy and rest after full days on deck. From dawn sails under clear skies to sunset anchors in hidden bays where local fishermen still work traditional grounds, a week aboard Sofia Star 1 becomes the kind of journey that lingers long after you return to shore.
