Enjoy a relaxing time on board a modern catamaran, while escaping the bustling city rush, sailing one of the most beautiful coastlines of Europe. From Alimos Marina, we set sail along the Athens Riviera, sailing into secluded bays, where we drop anchor, while the crew is looking after you. Don't miss tasting our freshly made Greek meal offered onboard, with local recipes made by our hostess! We plan on making two swim stops, while you experience the feeling of sailing on a modern & comfortable Catamaran, with plenty of room for our small group! Get ready for some jumps off the boat, and use the gear for snorkelling & exploring what lies under the surface or just sunbath. Our morning and sunset tours, are ideal for couples, families and group of friends, that want to make the most on a half-day cruise from Athens, stopping at Hydrousa islet & Vouliagmeni bay! Catch some of the best scenic photos, in this breath-taking scenery that Athens offer and leave our boat with a big smile! #athens #greece #sailing #thingstodo #activity #travel #summer #explore #yacht #athensriviera #sea #swimming #catamaran

While Vela is on land, we get the perfect opportunity to show you everything beneath the waterline! Let's take a closer look: ? The Rudder: A spade rudder gives us excellent steering capabilities, but its design makes it more sensitive to impacts compared to a skeg rudder. ?? The Propeller: Our Max Prop automatic feathering propeller adjusts itself when we sail, reducing drag and letting us glide faster through the water. ? The Keel: Weighing 3100 kg, it is a fin keel with a bulb at the bottom. The keel ensures we stay upright by counteracting the wind in the sails. It also minimizes sideways drift while sailing.' ? The Bow Thruster: This little helper makes docking and maneuvering in tight spots easier by pushing the bow to either side - but it's not much help in strong winds! ? Thru hulls and Drains: Did you know we have 18 holes below the waterline? 16 are thru hulls for water intakes, discharges, and transducers, while 2 are for cockpit drainage. Since the old fittings were 20 years old, we replaced them all to ensure Vela stays leak-free. Every detail below the surface has been carefully designed and maintained to keep us safe and efficient on the water. Could you imagine replacing 18 fittings under your boat?
