Charter destination
Lavrion, Greece
About this yacht
FOR SAIL is a Lagoon 560 S2 catamaran built in 2016 and recently refitted in 2023, offering a compelling platform for luxury crewed yacht charters throughout the Greek Islands. This 17-metre catamaran combines the proven comfort and spacious design of the Lagoon 560 platform with contemporary amenities and a professional crew of three, accommodating up to 10 guests across five well-appointed cabins—four double cabins and one twin cabin with flexible sleeping arrangements.
The 2023 refit has refreshed FOR SAIL with modern systems and comfort features that define contemporary luxury cruising. The yacht is equipped with dual 110-horsepower engines, a classic mainsail with electric winches, and a comprehensive suite of navigation and safety equipment including autopilot, radar, and GPS plotters. Climate control is assured through a full air conditioning system, whilst the inclusion of a generator, solar panels, and an onboard water maker reflects both comfort priorities and operational efficiency. The galley is fully equipped for sophisticated dining, and five electric toilets with showers service the guest cabins and saloon areas.
Entertainment and water-based activities are integral to the FOR SAIL experience. The yacht carries paddle boards, snorkeling sets, and water skis, whilst a Seabob and dinghy engine provide flexibility for exploration and tender operations. The bathing platform extends hospitality into the sea, and generous exterior spaces—including a flybridge and multiple deck areas with cushioning—encourage relaxation and al fresco entertaining. Inside, the saloon features audio systems and entertainment options, whilst cabins include MP3 capabilities for personalization.
Based in Lavrion with ready access to the Saronic Islands, Athens, and the broader Aegean, FOR SAIL operates year-round for bespoke charters. Weekly charter rates range from €22,000 to €24,000 depending on season, positioning her as an accessible luxury catamaran option for discerning clients seeking reliable, modern accommodation with genuine crewed service. The 2023 refit ensures all systems and aesthetics reflect current standards, whilst the Lagoon 560's twin-hull design provides the stability and space that multi-cabin charters demand. FOR SAIL offers an ideal balance of comfort, capability, and access to Greece's finest cruising grounds.

What is included in the charter rate for FOR SAIL?+
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 FOR SAIL before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter FOR SAIL?+
FOR SAIL charters from €22,000 per week in low season and €24,000 in high season — a difference of about 9% 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.
