How Much Does It Cost to Charter an 80 Foot Yacht in Greece?

The size most American parties mean when they say "a yacht": 23 to 25 metres, four cabins, a crew of three, and the week worked all in.

Last updated September 2026

What 80 feet means in Greek waters

The most common size on an American brief. Eighty feet is the yacht in the photograph: four cabins, a flybridge, a crew of three who become part of the week, and enough length to cross from Athens to Mykonos in a morning at 20 knots. On this list the band holds nine motor yachts from EUR 28,000 base, and the arithmetic above is the honest reading of their cards. Motor or catamaran at this length is a different holiday. An 80 foot motor yacht is speed and a flybridge: Hydra for lunch, Spetses for the night, Milos by Wednesday. An 80 foot catamaran, a Sunreef or a Fountaine Pajot, is the other side of the list: five cabins, a chef, a foredeck lounge, half the fuel, and twice the base because the yacht is new and the layout is the point. Both are weekly, fully crewed, from Athens. Where the money goes. At 80 feet the APA on a motor yacht runs 30 to 40 percent of the base and it is mostly diesel; a Saronic week spends the low end and a Cyclades loop the high. The VAT is the yacht's, between 5.2 and 12 percent, and this house writes it next to her name. Who you are dealing with. George Yachts Brokerage House LLC is a United States company, registered in Wyoming, with its brokerage desk in Athens, a few minutes from the marinas the yachts leave from. It is a boutique house: one broker, George P. Biniaris, Founder and Managing Broker, a licensed sailing skipper with a powerboat licence valid to 25 metres, handles every file himself, from the first message to the quay on check-in day, and is reachable on WhatsApp at +1 786 798 8798. The house is listed as an IYBA Charter Active Member, writes every charter on the MYBA form of agreement, was featured in Forbes in May 2026, and holds a 5.0 rating on Google. The APA, the VAT at each yacht's certified rate and the gratuity are set out line by line in every proposal, so nothing arrives as a surprise.

Best suited for

  • Two families sharing four cabins and a flybridge
  • Four couples on a first motor yacht week in the Saronic
  • A party that wants to see Mykonos, Paros and Milos in one week
  • Anyone pricing "an 80 footer" against the Caribbean or Croatia

When the 80 foot yachts go for 2027

The four-cabin 80 foot motor yachts are the entry to the motor list for most American families and hold their July and August weeks longest; they still go. Peak weeks for July and August 2027 are being contracted now, in the autumn of 2026; the five and six cabin yachts go first. Nine to fourteen months ahead for a peak week, six to nine for June and late September, three to four for May and October. Booking early buys first choice of yacht and week rather than a discount.

George's insider notes

  • At 80 feet the fourth cabin is sometimes a twin with bunks; four couples should ask in writing.
  • A Saronic week from Athens on an 80 foot motor yacht spends the low end of the APA and needs no repositioning.
  • The 80 foot catamarans with a chef are the most requested yachts in Greece at any price; their August weeks go a year out.
  • Ask for the all-in figure in dollars and the rate used; the base fee is a third of the story.

Frequently asked

Questions we get about How Much Does It Cost to Charter an 80 Foot Yacht in Greece?

How much does an 80 foot yacht cost to charter in Greece for a week?

EUR 28,000 to 39,500 base for the crewed motor yachts on the current rate cards, about EUR 39,000 to 57,000 all in with the APA at 30 to 40 percent on a motor yacht and VAT from 5.2 percent. The 80 foot sailing catamarans with a chef run EUR 56,000 to 90,000 base.

How many guests does an 80 foot yacht take?

Eight to ten in four cabins on most 80 foot motor yachts, six in three on the sport yachts; eight to ten in four or five cabins on the 80 foot catamarans.

What crew comes with an 80 foot yacht?

A captain, a deckhand and a cook-hostess on most 80 foot motor yachts; four or five crew including a chef on the 80 foot catamarans.

What is the 80 foot yacht in US dollars?

About USD 44,000 to 64,000 all in for the motor yachts at the European Central Bank reference rate of 6 October 2026, USD 1 = EUR 0.887; the contract is in euros and this house quotes both.

Is 80 feet enough for the Cyclades?

Yes, at motor yacht speed, with the captain choosing the days to cross; the Meltemi in July and August is the reason the itinerary is reshaped rather than fixed.

How do I see the 80 foot yachts available for my week?

WhatsApp +1 786 798 8798 or george@georgeyachts.com with the month and the party; two or three real yachts with their rate cards come back within twenty-four hours.
