Sun Odyssey 33

We had three wonderful weeks with the Sophia to explore the Sporades. For our family of four with two children aged seven and ten, the size of the boat was ideal.

We would especially like to highlight the exceptionally friendly and warm support from the local charterer. Communication with Francesca beforehand was straightforward, reliable, and always very friendly. Upon our arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the entire team. The recommendations and tips from Francesca and Panagiotis were very valuable to us, as we did not have much experience in Greek waters yet.

The Sophia is in good condition for its age and naturally shows some signs of use. Everything worked reliably for us technically, and we had a good briefing from Panagiotis. The mainsail requires a bit of finesse when setting, but it could always be reefed without any issues.

We can wholeheartedly recommend the Sophia and especially the charterer as very friendly and reliable, and we would sail with them again at any time.

Excellent welcome in Volos, even from the old boat, but very well maintained.

The islands have a lot of charm and there is something for all styles and tastes of sailing between islands that are very busy or very quiet (Skiathos is still to be avoided).

The Sporades are the ideal place for a cruise: wind but not too much, coves everywhere without too many people, even completely wild if you stray a little from the beaten path, few motorboats and jet skis for tranquility, warm and translucent waters, stunning landscapes, welcoming and friendly locals.

The boat is very well suited for this sailing area, lovingly maintained by its owner, who welcomed us very kindly and really took the time to explain how his boat works, which is organized with rare intelligence.
