Motor Yacht Taka is one of the most interesting yachts I saw at the Poros yacht show. Totally unique: Built in 1976, she has a classic 70s style—wood, tiles, retro color scheme, funky art, and a crew of 5 that’s been together forever. Captain Zafiris Mammis has been onboard 25 years, and it shows. Big plus: fully set up for mobility needs. Chairlift, proper tender, and real hands-on experience helping disabled guests. That makes a huge difference. Great for an older couple or anyone into vintage style and serious service.
TAKA Yacht Description
Presented by DMA Yachting, the breathtaking charter yacht TAKA is a 98 ft motor yacht. The most attractive features of TAKA are her generous space and culinary experience. TAKA spends the summer and winter season in Greece. She was completed by the ship builder Stephens in 1976. A well-done refit was finalized in 2022/2025. The spacious yacht layout features 4 generous cabins and comfortably accommodates up to 9 guests.
TAKA is classified as a superyacht. The key part of the yacht, generously sized aft deck, leads to the meticulously composed main saloon. The main saloon is a comfortable space to spend time when the weather is not ideal and enables a number of media entertainment options. 4 spacious cabins are laid out with vison for maximum room, access, comfort and privacy.
The motor yacht features Main Engines: 2 x 1120 HP 12V331 MTU Generatros: 2 x 35 KW Cummins engines and a generator.
Accommodation
m/y TAKA comfortably accommodates up to nine (9) guests in four well-appointed cabins. The main deck features a spacious Master Cabin and a Single Cabin, both with ensuite facilities, along with a day head that includes a shower and can serve as a secondary bathroom for the Master. The lower deck offers two Twin Cabins, each with a Pullman berth and private ensuite. Accessibility is a key highlight, with an extra-large gangway and a chair lift to the sundeck, making the yacht particularly well-suited for guests with reduced mobility. For added convenience, there is also a day head on the sundeck (no shower).What is the cabin arrangement of TAKA?

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 motor yacht like TAKA, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€8,875 - €14,200), making the charter cost €44,375 to €49,700. 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.
