Why George Yachts

For this brief specifically

  1. Real yachts in the EUR 17,000 to 50,000 band on the Index, and no pressure up-market: the right catamaran at 27,500 is a better week than the wrong motor yacht at 60,000.

  2. Greek-flagged yachts under MYBA contract for full transparency at every price point.

  3. Athens-based crew network keeps delivery fees minimal on this budget tier.

Frequently asked

About this charter type

What yachts are NOT available under €50k base?

40m+ motor yachts in peak July-August. Performance superyachts. Some headline-name yachts. Most of the rest of the fleet is reachable, especially in June or September.

Can I get a Mykonos / Santorini itinerary under €50k?

Yes in June or September, and often in peak too on a catamaran: the Index bands hold across the season, with peak weeks at the high end of each band and shoulder weeks at the low end.

Does cheaper mean worse?

Not at this band. The yachts between EUR 17,500 and 50,000 a week are fully crewed, on MYBA-standard contracts, with the same safety regime as the rest of the fleet. The differences against the 100,000-plus bands are amenity depth (smaller spaces, fewer water toys, simpler chef briefs), not safety or core service.
