As luxury yacht brokers, we feel it’s important to attend boat shows in the various regions of the world in which we do business. It helps us get to see the condition of the yachts. Meet the crews and get a feel for the level of service they will provide, and tour the area our clients will be cruising, all so we can make appropriate recommendations. On this occasion, an Impressive Greece Charter Crew onboard ORION wowed us.
With these goals in mind, Chris and Karin Patrick, our most seasoned yacht brokers, headed to the 2015 Greece Yacht Show held in Nafplion, Greece. There they toured 57 yachts over three days, spending time with each crew and inspecting the yachts. What they discovered simply amazed them.
Greece Yacht Charter ORION | What it is Like
In Greece, unlike many other charter areas, the crews work on the boat year-round, not just during the chartering season. Jobs are not easy to come by in Greece; even more rare are jobs that provide steady employment in this highly coveted industry. Most of the crew members are Greek. They are committed to their country, families, fellow crew members, and their yachts in a unique way.
So how could this year-round commitment impact your charter experience? Each member of the crew brings a level of excellence to his or her job that is unsurpassed; a level of excellence from which you directly benefit.
Another way this dedication to career is translated is that the boats are kept in impeccable condition. While some of the motor yachts, sailboats and catamarans are over 10 years old, they look as if brand new. This is a direct result of the hard work these crews put in all year.
And because these crews live and work in Greece throughout the year, they not only know the popular hot spots but they have special locations to share with their guests.
You may think that with this high level of service, there isn’t value to be found in this cruising area, but you would be surprised! The charter rates for the boats at the show range from $10K-$150K+ (depending on the yacht), plus provisioning costs and crew gratuities. With a wide range of options, we feel confident we can match you and your guests with the perfect boat and crew.
