I’ve been onboard Hydrus—she’s a solid, smart pick. Great layout, clean finish, proper storage, ensuite cabins with robes, and really well priced. Each cabin has its own vibe, which is a nice touch.
Perfect for two families, with the convertible twin. Crew is lovely.

Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a sailing catamaran like HYDRUS, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€4,400 - €7,700), making the charter cost €26,400 to €29,700. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.
