CARMEN — 37.3m Aegean Yachts for Charter in Croatian Coast
Charter destination
Marina Dalmacija, Zadar
About this yacht
CARMEN represents a compelling addition to the contemporary explorer yacht market, delivered in 2025 by the renowned Aegean Yachts builder. At 37.3 metres, this striking motor yacht combines military-inspired angular exterior lines with an unexpectedly refined, beach-house aesthetic throughout her interior—a sophisticated contrast that appeals to charterers seeking both adventure and relaxation. With interior design by Riza Tansu, CARMEN showcases the thoughtful curation expected of modern luxury explorers.
Accommodation spans five cabins accommodating ten guests, anchored by a full-beam master suite positioned on the main deck—a layout that affords the owners or lead guests exceptional privacy and commanding views. Three additional double cabins and two twin cabins provide flexible sleeping arrangements for larger family groups or multi-cabin bookings. A professional crew of seven ensures attentive service throughout your voyage.
CARMEN's deck spaces are generous and purposefully designed for al fresco entertaining. The foredeck jacuzzi invites relaxation in open air, while expansive upper and main deck areas accommodate the full party in comfort. Both at-anchor and underway stabilizers eliminate motion discomfort—critical for the serious explorer seeking remote anchorages without compromise. Air conditioning and WiFi ensure modern creature comforts extend throughout the yacht, while dual MAN engines deliver 16-knot maximum speeds and a comfortable 13-knot cruising pace for extended Mediterranean and Aegean voyages.
CARMEN operates from Marina Dalmacija in Zadar, positioning her ideally for exploration of the Dalmatian coast, Greek islands, and broader Mediterranean regions. Her charter itineraries have encompassed Slovenia, Venice, the Ionian Islands, Croatia, the Aegean, and the East Med—waters where her shallow-draft capabilities and robust construction excel. Whether anchored in secluded Adriatic coves or circumnavigating the Greek islands, CARMEN delivers the dual promise of serious cruising capability and contemporary luxury hospitality.
For those seeking a modern explorer platform with genuine pedigree, contemporary design, and the operational flexibility to access both developed ports and remote anchorages, CARMEN charter availability represents a compelling opportunity in the EUR 130,000–145,000 weekly rate bracket.

What is included in the charter rate for CARMEN?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 7, 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 CARMEN before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter CARMEN?+
CARMEN charters from €130,000 per week in low season and €145,000 in high season — a difference of about 12% 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.
