We had a great time in Greece, the first three days we had constant 20-25knots of wind, so we were able to do a lot of sailing. The boat was also in good condition and everything in working order…the boat did however look a bit older than a 2018 mode…
Ven Dobrinov
Dear Grigory, Everything was perfect! Thank you :) Please see the attached photo.
This time 12 Knots invites you to discover the most traveled part of the world – a glorious journey around the shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
It is a long, lively, occasionally challenging and endlessly fascinating trip off from Gibraltar, one of the fabled Pillars of Hercules, up the coast of Spain, along the Riviera, to the islands of Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, then Croatia, the Greek islands and way-way to Istanbul in Turkey.
Sailing along the coastlines as wild and diverse as anything you encounter before will give you a real insight in this world – while probing through layers of traditions and culture, ancient and modern, rich and poor, fake and authentic.
Be open to surprise and serendipity, be willing to get lost and appreciate each routine’s uniqueness.
The Mediterranean Sea is an intercontinental one that separates Europe from Africa. The Strait of Gibraltar connects it to the Atlantic Ocean on the west; the Dardanelles and the Bosporus – to the Black Sea on the east; and long man-made Suez Canal – to the Red Sea in the south-east.
Renting a yacht in the Mediterranean is a great alternative to a standard cruise on a liner – this way you will feel the true freedom and get unique experience as a real traveler! Spain, Croatia, Italy, France, Montenegro, Turkey, Greece, Malta - wherever you want to go, 12 Knots will help you to charter a yacht that will definitely meet your needs, type of vacation and budget. "The cradle of civilization" offers a huge number of attractions. Secluded bays with paradise beaches and lively cities, fishing villages with colorful boats and modern marinas filled with premium yachts. There is no other part of the world where you may find such a great gastronomic, architectural and nature diversity.
Renting a yacht in the Mediterranean Sea will give you chance to see many countries of this area in a different perspective. Instead of visiting standard touristic places you’ll be able to visit wide variety of little-known places far from the standard routes. For example, the Cote d'Azur is not only the luxurious ports of Saint-Tropez, Monaco and Nice with luxury restaurants, casinos and a great concentration of mega yachts. Here you may also find little fishing villages, where in a family restaurant you can dine on freshly caught fish with white or rose wine. Spain is not only Ibiza discos and beaches of the Costa Brava, full of tourists and pareo vendors, but also quiet harbors with amazingly clear water, where you can enjoy unusual solitude.
Mediterranean yacht charters is the opportunity to do what you want. Every day you can taste local versions of Mediterranean dishes that differ in terms of cooking method, spices and sauces. Without any haste, you may stroll among the ancient ruins and climb the walls of beautifully preserved ancient fortresses, offering spectacular views on the sea - exactly the same as hundreds of years ago.
Your vacations will be much more interesting if you choose to rent a yacht. The Mediterranean coast length is over 40 thousand km, 21 countries and three continents with different coastal relief. Here you can find almost everything: volcanos, starch-white and coal-black lava sand, pebbles and shell rocks.
For photographers, video bloggers and movie lovers, renting a yacht in the Mediterranean also gives the opportunity to see a lot of interesting things – in a quite unique way. Among the places that must be visited is the Italian town of Portofino, where Antonioni / Wenders shot one of the episodes of the romantic drama “Behind the Clouds”. Also don’t miss the Amalfi Coast, which is often served as a backdrop for films about beautiful life. One of the most scenic views here is Positano village with its colorful houses that cascade down right to the blue water.
Those who love nature and silence should include in the list one of the secluded Greek islands with bicycles and boats. You can rest peacefully on some beaches of the eastern coast of Sicily, and find a great combination of warm turquoise of the sea and white fine soft sand. If you are getting bored with peace and tranquility, you may always get off the anchor and set up sails to the place where life is in full swing - like Ibiza, in Barcelona, ??Monaco.
One of the main features of the Mediterranean region is its relative compactness and high dencity of different attractions. History and architecture, museums, nature, beach attractions and water sports, shops, amusement parks - all of these can be in just one sailing vacation.
Mediterranean bareboat yacht charter gives you a chance to visit places that are almost inaccessible from land, because they have neither a parking lot nor a safe trail to the sea. You may find plenty of secluded coves in rocky shores of Turkey and Greece, where every spot can be your personal secret place, whit not risk of finding another company.
Dazzling white streets of the small coastal towns in Greece or red tiled roofs of Montenegro, contrasting with the huge mountains. Malta’s cultural microcosm, where European, Arab and African intertwined, and where, in addition to the magnificent Gothic and Baroque buildings, there are prehistoric sanctuaries, the secrets of which have not yet been solved. Turkey, with places not touched by resorts, where you can clearly feel the breath of antiquity. All this can be points of interest during your yacht charter in the Mediterranean Sea!
For active travelers who value independence versus staying in one spot, decision to rent a boat in the Mediterranean Sea is definitely a solution. If you plan an ordinary trip with an accuracy of one day and hotels bookings in advance, then yacht gives you a chance to improvise and change your plan. Renting a yacht is two in one option: accommodation and transportation at the same time.
It is not surprising that Mediterranean yacht charters are in great demand and one of the most popular sailing destinations offered by 12 knots. Sailing in this region is a dream for many people, while we make it a reality. We offer bareboat and crewed yachts for charter from classic Turkish gulets to modern sailing boats and premium yachts. Our manager will give detailed information each boat so that you can make the right choice.
Above all we also can help with itinerary and destination ideal for your needs and time of the year. For example, if you are looking for diving or other waters sports, we will tell you the best spots for underwater attractions and the best way to get there. Where to find the most beautiful views? Which cities should go to catch spectacular holidays? Where are the best water parks, shopping centers, casinos, discos? Answers to all these questions will help create a unique roadmap.

The Mediterranean has been the sailing center of the world for millennia. As a result, it has continued to attract more yacht charter vacations than any other sea on the planet. The bright, blue waters of the Mediterranean boast culture, history, and sophistication. You can enjoy it all on a private Mediterranean yacht charter vacation .
The splendor of Europe’s most popular destinations awaits across thousands of miles of deep azure. From St. Tropez to the Greek Islands. From Monte Carlo to the Dalmatian Coast. There are thousands of experiences for those who live large and demand luxury.
There’s no better way to access this region’s splendor and hidden secrets than by private yacht. With private yacht cruises in the Mediterranean, you get to sail unencumbered. On your bespoke luxury yacht vacation, you’ll cruise comfortably while exploring idyllic islands and coastlines.
“The Med” is two culturally unique regions — the Western Mediterranean and the Eastern Mediterranean. The regions are culturally unique. However, they both have gorgeous beaches, quiet coves, upscale marinas, and some of the most impressive luxury yachts.
There are incredible things to do and see throughout the Mediterranean. Please get in touch with us to discuss your luxury yacht charter dream. We will help you select the best destination and yacht for you and your group.
The Mediterranean is home to some of the world’s best motor yachts, many of which are called the Port of Athens home. Ranges from midsize yachts to superyachts and megayachts over 150 feet long. Charter guests on these yachts can enjoy sprawling sundecks , beach clubs , spas , and gyms . Some motor yachts even have elevators .
Entertaining spaces on nearly all motor yachts are ideal for gatherings inside and out, night or day. Dining choices are also varied, but of course, most guests opt to dine outdoors.
With the larger storage spaces inside and on the deck, motor yachts can accommodate many water toys and tenders. These agile tenders shuttle guests to shore and hard-to-reach places. They can also tow water skis , wakeboards , and more.
Traditional gulets, or motor sailors, are available in Croatia , Greece , and Turkey . These large, unique vessels are perfect for bigger groups. Gulets also give a truly authentic East Mediterranean experience. While they have sails, they primarily utilize motor power to navigate the Mediterranean.
Anyone looking for more action and adventure can find it by chartering a catamaran or sailboat . Both sailing catamarans and power catamarans get you closer to the water.
These boats allow easy access to the water for snorkeling , sea-bobs , paddle boarding , and more. Spacious layouts for families make these boats even more attractive. What’s more, sailing catamarans save considerably on fuel costs.
Also, sailboats offer many comforts and amenities and the ability to participate in the journey. Sailing yachts like PANORAMA or AURELIUS are a great way to enjoy the Mediterranean. Take a sailing lesson from the Captain and crew and make lasting family memories.
There are countless destinations to consider when aboard your yacht cruise on the Mediterranean. And each comes with a unique potential for adventure. Here are just a few Mediterranean charter yacht routes to consider:

Leapher Yachts is slowly but surely getting bigger.
“The NAVIX50 embodies our philosophy of creating vessels that excel in any environment,” Leapher CEO Yiannis Andriotis said in a statement. “From the Drake Passage to the coast of St. Tropez, this yacht redefines what’s possible in the sub-500GT category.”
The spacious interior includes six generous cabins, with the option for a seventh cabin or expanded skylounge. The guest cabin on the main deck can also be turned into a gym, wellness area, or an expanded owner’s suite. All guest cabins are equipped with king-size beds, while the owner’s suite is fitted with a plush super king-size bed. The yacht is also home to six crew cabins that can sleep up to 11.
The exterior decks are replete with alfresco dining areas, lounges, and sunbeds. The aft deck is arguably the standout, with two folding terraces, a large, 18-foot pool, a sprawling sunbathing area, a swim platform, and not one but two wet bars. At the opposite end, the foredeck doubles as a garage for two tenders.
“It [the NAVIX50] offers unparalleled versatility and luxury while maintaining an attractive value proposition for seasoned owners,” added Andriotis.
Leapher operates on a site formerly owned by cruise ship producer De Hoop that closed at the height of the pandemic. The yard is set to deliver the first NAVIX60 later this month. Christened Horizon, the 198-foot explorer will be on display at the Monaco Yacht Show from September 25 to 28.

When being a part of the Below Deck: Mediterranean cast, their goals include wanting to grow in the yachting industry to become either a Chief Stew or a Bosun. This is the case with Ellie Dubaich from Season 9, who has shown throughout the season how one of her main goals in her career as a stewardess is to become a Chief Stew someday. This is a dream any of them strive for, but Ellie has shown the opposite, as she is not ready for that role whatsoever. Regarding power rankings, Chief Stew is in charge of the interior team and delegates who will be in charge of each section of the boat, whether it is service or cleaning. As the second stew, Ellie is the person that Aesha needs to rely on whenever she is busy and has to delegate some responsibilities, since they are the ones who have more experience.
During the season, Chief Stew Aesha Scott struggled with Ellie and Third Stew Bri Mueller as they have had issues with their jobs and personal lives, both having a crush on deckhand Joe Bradley. With these issues, as a second stew, Ellie needed to put her job first and not bring any of their drama to their work, but she failed to do so as she started to be condescending towards Bri about mistakes she made as a third stew. She has not taken the time to give Bri any constructive criticism to help her grow in the department. Instead, she has tried to throw her under the bus with Aesha and Captain Sandy Yawn . Throughout the season, Bri has also not been the perfect stew, as she has made mistakes during charters, has not taken accountability for her errors, and has pointed fingers at someone else. Besides her mistakes, she has also claimed she has been micromanaged throughout her time on Mustique by Aesha when, in reality, Aesha has not been able to leave her in charge whenever she needs to take a break. Ellie made mistakes and showed her lack of experience throughout the charter season. Ellie has the right formula to become a Chief Stew, but she needs to understand by listening to her superiors who want to help her evolve and be taken down her high horse, on which she believes she has made no mistakes.
When viewers first met Ellie Dubaich on Season 9 of Below Deck: Mediterranean , she showed initiative to learn because she loves her work and wants to become a Chief Stew . From her and Bri Mueller, on paper, she also had the most experience, which is why Aesha Scott decided to give her the role of a second stewardess on the boat, as she had also already done a season in the Mustique before Season 9, which gave her more experience on the yacht as well. Becoming the second stewardess meant that Ellie would be the second in command when it came to Aesha taking breaks or if she was away with the guests; another part of her role meant she would be the one to help Aesha to train Bri with her duties, since she was the greenest out of the two of them . What seemed an easy task for Ellie became a bigger problem for Aesha, which almost meant having to fire both .
One of the main reasons the two stews were having issues was because they both had grown a crush on deckhand Joe Bradley, and it did not help that he strung them along, making them take their competition into the love department carryover during their work. Ellie showed that she was going through a power trip when it came to her position, as she started to act condescending towards Bri during their roles and even went on to call her out because she did not have much experience. Bri stood up for herself and told Ellie she felt she was belittling her , which triggered Ellie to say, "Your lack of experience is in you not being aware of how a boat works." This statement towards Bri should not have been told as Bri had already been dealing with the stress of feeling she was not good enough for her job, and now she had one of her coworkers accentuate that by saying it out loud. If Ellie wants to become a Chief Stew, she should learn different ways to express concerns so that she doesn't have to bring down everyone and instead find ways to help everyone grow in the department. If 2/3 of the department does not get along, it becomes a recipe for disaster and more work for Chief Stew.
As a Chief Stew, Aesha Scott has to put on many hats since she is the one who has had the most experience in the yachting world, but her doing everyone's job also means that she risks becoming burnt out . This is why Chief Stews need to have second stews who they can rely on whenever they need to take some time apart from the job to recover. This season, though, she has struggled with Ellie. She said she has the experience, but her work has not shown her expertise. During one of the episodes where Aesha needed to take a break, she left Ellie in charge of setting the table and ensuring the guests were always served. Aesha had to stop her break early because Ellie kept asking Bri many questions that should have been easy fixes, and she did not take the time to set the table for the guests' lunch. At that moment , Ellie started feeling she was being micromanaged and that Aesha did not trust her to lead the service alone . After that, Ellie began to make more mistakes and wasn't taking accountability for her errors, like making poor drinks for guests and leaving her phone behind in a guest's cabin when they were not supposed to be on their phones. Aesha decided to call her out on her behavior, and Ellie started feeling attacked instead of taking this as constructive criticism.
This season has taken a toll on Aesha as she has had to work harder on a yacht that requires a team of four stewardesses, and her stews are inexperienced. Luckily, even though the charter season is almost over, she can have a breather as Captain Sandy has recruited a fourth stew to relieve Aesha. What may seem as a positive for the interior team has been taken as a negative by Ellie as she felt threatened in her role, since new stew Carrie O'Neill has more experience than her on paper, which could mean her role as second stew could be taken over. Ellie started questioning Aesha about where Carrie would be in the team as she took over her service role and felt she was being pushed to the side. Aesha explains in her confessional that "If you want to make it as a Chief Stew, the most important part of the job is the guest experience, not her second stews insecurities." Ellie takes things personally, and she doesn't separate her professional role from her problems, which can hinder her from achieving her goal of becoming a Chief Stew. For Ellie to make it into the yachting world, she should be able to listen and take criticism, as that is the only way she will grow professionally.

Bayesian superyacht which sank off Italy is an "unsinkable" vessel, Giovanni Costantino, CEO of The Italian Sea Group, said.
By Ashna Hurynag, news correspondent and Eleonora Chiarella, producer
Sunday 25 August 2024 08:48, UK
Vessels like Mike Lynch's stricken superyacht are "unsinkable", according to the chief executive of the firm which makes and sells them.
Giovanni Costantino, CEO of The Italian Sea Group, told Sky News there are no flaws with the design and construction of the Bayesian superyacht which capsized in a storm off the coast of Porticello, Sicily, on Monday.
Five bodies were found by divers on Wednesday - taking the number of confirmed dead to six.
The Italian Sea Group also owns the firm that built British tech tycoon Mr Lynch's Bayesian, and Mr Costantino said the vessels "are the safest in the most absolute sense".
"Being the manufacturer of Perini [boats], I know very well how the boats have always been designed and built," he said.
"And as Perini is a sailing ship... sailing ships are renowned to be the safest ever."
He said their structure and keel made them "unsinkable bodies".

Mr Costantino said news of the sinking "put me in a state of sadness on one side and of disbelief on the other".
"This incident sounds like an unbelievable story, both technically and as a fact," he said.
It is understood Italian prosecutors investigating the incident are continuing to hold interviews with the survivors.
On Tuesday they questioned the captain for more than two hours to help reconstruct what happened and provide useful technical details.
Four British inspectors are also in Porticello and have begun a preliminary assessment of events.
It is understood they will look at all relevant aspects of the incident, including the design, stability, and operation of the vessel. They will also examine the effects of the weather conditions experienced.

Twenty-two people were on board the vessel, 15 of whom were rescued - including Briton Charlotte Golunski and her one-year-old daughter Sofia.
Divers will resume efforts on Thursday morning to bring ashore a body they found earlier. One more person remains missing.
