About Bareboat Sailboat Sun Odyssey 440
The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 combines modern design with practical sailing comfort. Her sleek hull cuts efficiently through the Ionian waters, while the interior delivers unexpected spaciousness across four double cabins. Built in 2020, she reflects Jeanneau's reputation for durability and refined finish, appealing to experienced sailors seeking a capable, well-appointed vessel.
Greece's sailing conditions favour the bareboat skipper. Predictable afternoon winds, zero tidal range, and scattered anchorages between the Ionian islands mean passage planning remains straightforward whilst mornings offer calm water for exploration. Fresh taverna meals await along every coastline.
The boat includes thoughtful additions for extended stays: bow thruster for tight anchorages, full galley, air-conditioned cabins with fans, and outdoor speakers. Kayaks, paddleboards, and fishing tackle are available to hire separately. A professional skipper option exists if preferred; they occupy one guest cabin and you arrange their meals.
Highlights
- •Four double cabins sleep eight; two heads with hot water serve the group comfortably
- •Bow thruster and lazy jack system reduce single-handed manoeuvres and sail handling effort
- •Ionian Islands base permits exploration of Lefkada, Kefalonia, Ithaca, and the Saronic Gulf within one week
- •2020 Jeanneau build ensures modern construction standards, electronics, and reliability
The Charter Experience
Charter the Ionian Islands at your own pace. Base yourself in Lavrion (near Athens) and work northward towards Lefkada and Kefalonia, or explore the Saronic Gulf classics. Mornings suit snorkelling in turquoise bays; afternoons bring reliable wind for purposeful sailing. Anchorage selection defines each day, from busy Nydri to remote islets where only fishing boats rest. This is sailing for competent hands who value autonomy and authentic Greek island life without marinas or crowds.
Suggested Itinerary
A classic week charts from Lavrion south to Poros and Hydra, then west across to Spetses. Return northbound via Aegina, or venture further into the Ionian proper, calling at Lefkada and the Paxi islands. Each leg spans 4-8 hours under sail, leaving afternoon light for anchorage selection and evening swims.
