Olympic Marine Lavrion, Greece
About this yacht
AETHER is a striking 20-meter sailing catamaran expertly crafted by renowned French builder Fountaine Pajot in 2018, with a comprehensive 2023 refit that ensures she remains at the pinnacle of modern yacht design. Designed for those seeking both comfort and adventure, this elegant vessel accommodates up to eight guests across four beautifully appointed cabins—comprising one master suite and three double cabins—each exuding refined maritime style with light woods and linens that ensure optimum comfort. The professional crew of three, including a captain, hostess, and chef, ensures a seamless AETHER charter experience, allowing guests to relax and indulge in the captivating scenery of the Mediterranean.
The interior styling by Berret Racoupeau delivers a boldly modern aesthetic with masterful use of space. The strategically designed main salon is illuminated by windows surrounding an extensive seating arrangement set with a bar, and clever design allows the dining space to expand onto the aft deck beneath protective upper-deck shade—an ideal setting for formal dinners overlooking the water. AETHER's expansive flybridge stands as a hallmark feature, complete with an authentic ocean terrace, extensive sunbathing areas, and a luxurious jacuzzi where guests can unwind beneath the stars while soaking in breathtaking views. A forward cockpit houses another jacuzzi, while a shaded seating area in the flybridge provides the perfect casual setting for sundowners.
The shallow draft and fast speeds make AETHER ideally suited for reef exploration and intimate anchorages. Her spacious deck areas flow seamlessly into the airy interior, with a well-equipped galley and comfortable salon that extends into generous outdoor spaces perfect for al fresco dining or sunbathing. Water enthusiasts will appreciate her comprehensive toy collection: adult and children's water skis, wakeboard, two kayaks, two Seabobs, snorkeling equipment for ten, fishing rods, and a Highfield tender with 60 HP outboard engine. A swim platform ensures easy water access, while a barbecue allows guests to prepare the day's fresh catch.
Based in Lavrion, Greece, AETHER operates throughout the East Mediterranean, exploring the crystalline waters of the Cyclades, Dodecanese, and Ionian Islands. With her modern amenities and thoughtful design, she is perfectly suited for exploring azure waters ideal for families and discerning sailors seeking authentic Greek island experiences, making every moment on board a delightful adventure.

What is included in the charter rate for AETHER?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 3, insurance, and use of the onboard equipment and water toys. Fuel, food and beverages, berthing and port fees, and shore excursions are paid from the APA, and VAT is charged on the base rate. APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is typically around 40% of the base rate, held by the captain and accounted for in full — unspent balance is refunded at disembarkation. Greek charter VAT varies by yacht and by charter, broadly between 5.2% and 24%, depending on the yacht's type, size and certification, the duration of the charter, whether it passes through international waters, and whether the yacht carries permanent professional crew. We confirm the applicable rate for AETHER before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter AETHER?+
AETHER charters from €30,000 per week in low season and €40,500 in high season — a difference of about 35% between the two. In Greece, July and August are peak: the most settled weather, the busiest anchorages, and the highest rates. Late May, June, and September offer warm water and quieter islands at the low-season rate, and are what we most often recommend. The meltemi wind is strongest in July and August across the Cyclades, which is worth weighing if sea state matters to your party.
