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 Utopia, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€3,240 - €5,670), making the charter cost €19,440 to €21,870. 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.

Takis Karapanos- Captain
Place of birth: Patras, Greece
Age: 50
Nationality: Greek
Qualification: Yacht Master
Languages spoken: English, Greek
Takis was born in 1974 and he was raised in Patras, Achaia, Greece. Throughout his life, he remembers being part of the Sea, either he was fishing, swimming, sailing or just staring at her.
After completing his BCs Course in industrial technology and management at the University of Bradford, UK in 1997, he found himself working with success for years in industrial sectors relevant to his studies. Meanwhile he had been enjoying sailing with "Ioni", his private Albin Vega throughout the summers with his Family and Friends all over the Greek seas. It was those years that he became acquainted with routes, harbors, coasts and so many more. It was those valuable years that introduced him to engine troubleshooting, emergency situations, crew handling and many more. By the summer of 2013 he had taken the decision to follow his heart and work as a daily-cruises professional skipper. Ever since he has been working as a professional skipper and claims that the Sea never stops teaching him lessons.
By now, after thousands of miles, dockings, anchor drops and crew members, he has come to become a most experienced Captain in all aspects of the profession, either it has to do with technical or interpersonal matters. The latter is mentioned because the title of a "Captain” includes a strong leader when necessary, as well as a human face towards to his Guests. That is why his moto is “a good skipper must be a great host”.
