What an amazing trip. Marianna was very helpful throughout the whole charter. We had such a great time sailing across the Saronic islands on this boat - would definitely recommend!
5 stars for Marianna and Nikos!!! The communication prior to closing the booking was quick and accurate, Marianna replied to all my questions in a very timely manner and in detail. After closing the booking, she shared the contract, which was very thorough and helped me to understand what was expected from me and the crew. On the day to get the boat, Nikos was on time, and he explained with great detail and very patiently all the features of the boat, answered all our questions and gave us clear instructions on everything that we needed to know. I must say that besides a couple of details, we didn't need to contact him nor Marianna, since it was all clear to us. The boat itself is a beauty, and everything in it is in top condition, we didn't have any troubles whatsoever to use the motor nor for sailing. On the day of the check-out, Nikos was again on time, and it all went smoothly. All in all, we had a blast and we could sail knowing that the boat is super reliable and robust. THANK YOU Marinna and Nikos, I greatly appreciate how you run your business! Best, Camilo
We enjoyed every minute on this gorgeous boat and highly appreciated the flawless service by Marianna and Nikos. Empleons sailing characteristics are really enjoyable, together with its high maintenance level and attention to equipment details Nikos put in place, we can only recommend this boat to those, who want to experience a nice owner yacht.
It was an amazing journey with Empleon, all thanks to the kindness and availability of Marianna and Nicolas! The boat was fantastic, providing a real sense of comfort and speed for sailing, just as described. It was clean and comfortable.
I'm really satisfied! The First 40.7 of Marianna is a great boat, perfect for enjoying proper sailing. The welcoming and communication is also nice.
Marianna & Nikos were helpful, responsive and polite from start to finish. Full of recommendations of places to go and eat and nothing is too much trouble!
Positive points: * Very friendly and responsive owners. We greatly appreciated the early check-in on the Saturday of departure and the check-out on the Saturday morning of arrival, which allowed us one last night at anchor. * Quick repairs by the owner following a problem with the lazy jack at departure. * Reliable engine * Very seaworthy and fast boat, in good general condition for its age * Reinforced electrical system allowing the refrigerator to be left plugged in at all times * Very authentic departure marina, easily accessible from central Athens by public transport. Points for improvement: * NO AUTOPILOT, contrary to what was mentioned in the ad! * Defective dinghy engine (this can happen, and the owner discovered it at the same time as us) * Unusual windlass with very frequent chain jamming * No spray hood, which would have allowed for better enjoyment of the cockpit in the late-season weather. * Genoa in poor condition when the boat was taken into account Inherent to the boat's model: * Very narrow aft deck with difficult access
Boat corresponding to our expectations.. excellent availability and responsiveness of the renter at check in, check out and during the stay.. Very good stay! We recommend
The owners Nicos and Marianna were super receptive and attentive. They welcomed us before check-in when we left our bags on the boat. We had a wonderful time sailing around some islands south of Athens
