GEMAYA — 33m Custom Line for Charter in Athens Riviera
Charter destination
Lavrio, Greece
About this yacht
GEMAYA is a distinctive 33-meter motor yacht built by Custom Line in 2007 and recently underwent a comprehensive 2025 refit, positioning her as a thoroughly modernized platform for Mediterranean exploration. With accommodation for 12 guests across five cabins—four doubles and one twin—she offers the space and flexibility that discerning charterers require, maintained by a professional crew of six.
What sets GEMAYA apart is her robust construction and purposeful design. Built with a steel hull and equipped with zero-speed fin stabilizers, she is exceptionally well-suited to cruising the challenging Aegean waters during the summer season, when stronger winds test less capable vessels. Her design heritage—originally conceived with a high bow for weather protection—provides genuine seaworthiness without compromising comfort. This engineering prowess translates directly to guest experience: superior stability at anchor means better sleep and more relaxed dining, whilst her efficient 225-liter-per-hour fuel consumption ensures economical cruising between the Greek islands.
The onboard experience reflects a yacht thoughtfully configured for outdoor living and leisure. A heated deck jacuzzi positioned at the bow captures sunset views and serves as an ideal gathering space before dinner service. The swim platform facilitates easy water access, whilst the watersports inventory—including two Seabobs, wakeboards, and waterskis for both adults and children—provides active entertainment between island stops. For those with more contemplative interests, an astronomical telescope enables stargazing sessions, a signature feature that appeals to guests seeking meaningful connection with their surroundings.
Cabins are logically grouped to optimize guest experience, with thoughtful configurations that accommodate families without the constraints of traditional pullman arrangements. Entertainment systems and Wi-Fi connectivity maintain modern conveniences, whilst the vessel's intimate scale ensures no guest feels remote from the action on deck or in the saloons.
GEMAYA operates seasonally from Lavrio, Greece, with charter availability throughout the East Mediterranean, including the Dodecanese, Ionian Islands, and Cyclades. Her combination of seaworthiness, generous guest accommodation, and competitive charter rates from €45,000 to €55,000 per week make her an exceptional choice for those seeking an authentic Greek island experience without compromising on luxury or safety. GEMAYA charter represents intelligent luxury travel in one of the world's most compelling sailing grounds.

What is included in the charter rate for GEMAYA?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 6, 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 GEMAYA before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter GEMAYA?+
GEMAYA charters from €45,000 per week in low season and €55,000 in high season — a difference of about 22% 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.
