Who built VAY and what are her specs?+

What is included in the charter rate for VAY?+
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 VAY before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter VAY?+
VAY charters from €50,000 per week in low season and €80,000 in high season — a difference of about 60% 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.
How do I book a charter on VAY?+
Send an enquiry through this page or contact Aris Drivas Yachting directly. We confirm availability with the central agent, prepare a tailored itinerary and quote, and handle the contract, APA, and crew briefing end-to-end. DRIVAS has been brokering Greek charters since 1972.
