14m Ferretti 480 Motor Yacht Charter Paros | 2005 | AR1403

A motor yacht charter Paros from Parikia starts in the middle of the Cyclades, with Naxos, Antiparos and Mykonos all inside an hour and Santorini a comfortable morning’s run. This 14-metre Ferretti 480 takes six guests in three cabins, with a skipper, hostess and chef included.

Twin 575-horsepower diesels, a flybridge helm and a bow thruster make her quick between islands and easy stern-to on a crowded Cycladic quay. For a motor yacht charter Paros that turns the meltemi into a matter of timing rather than a lost day, the speed matters.

Fourteen metres, refitted in 2023

She measures 14.1 metres overall, 46 feet, with a beam of 4.34 metres and a draught of 2.02 metres. The deck is laid in teak, the electronics run to inside and outside GPS plotters, autopilot and bow thruster, and tankage holds 1,500 litres of fuel and 700 litres of fresh water backed by a water maker.

Three crew run her: skipper, hostess and chef, all included in the rate along with the transit log. On a motor yacht charter Paros the galley decides the week, and hers carries a cooker, microwave, freezer, full fridge, coffee machine and a barbecue for the aft deck.

A week on a motor yacht charter Paros usually runs west to Antiparos and the Despotiko anchorage, south to Ios and the Koufonisia, then east past Naxos to Schinoussa and Iraklia. Longer routes reach Santorini and the caldera, or north to Mykonos and Delos for the archaeological site.

The cooking worth the crossing here sits at the waterline. The tavernas of Kolymbithres, Ampelas and Soros on Antiparos are reached by tender rather than by road, and the crew times the run so dinner is a step from the bathing platform.

Saloon, galley and living space

The saloon is finished in pale cherry with a curved settee, a dining table, a lower helm forward and air conditioning throughout. A motor yacht charter Paros is judged partly on the hours out of the meltemi, and this room, with wide side windows and a sliding door aft, handles them.

The galley sits down and forward with a full fridge and freezer, so the cooking stays out of the lounge. A generator and inverter hold air conditioning overnight at anchor without the main engines running, and the yacht carries heating for shoulder-season weeks.

Three cabins

Three cabins sleep six: a full-beam master amidships, a VIP forward and a twin, sharing two electric heads with showers. Every cabin on this motor yacht charter Paros has individual air conditioning, timber joinery, opening portlights or hull windows and stowage built into the berth base.

On deck and in the water

The flybridge carries a second helm, a sun pad and seating under a bimini, with a further sun pad on the foredeck and a bathing platform aft. A motor yacht charter Paros here includes a dinghy at no extra cost, snorkelling sets, an audio system with inside and outside speakers, and a freshwater deck shower for coming back aboard.
