Elba 45 catamaran charter Rhodes opens the Dodecanese aboard a brand-new 2025 Fountaine Pajot cruising catamaran, run bareboat from Rhodes New Marina. Sail her yourself or add a skipper for the week. Thirteen metres of easy-handling sailing catamaran, six cabins deep and freshly delivered, built for shallow, sunlit island time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Elba 45 is Fountaine Pajot’s compact cruising catamaran, and this is a 2025 hull in the six-cabin charter layout. She carries the yard’s hallmarks: a forward cockpit lounge on the foredeck, a flybridge with helm and sunbeds above, and a saloon that runs flush with the cockpit on one level. Twin 60 hp diesels give her real punch under power, and she stays easy to sail short-handed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New for 2025, built for the Dodecanese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

She measures 13.41 m overall on a 7.62 m beam and draws just 1.22 m. That shoal draught is the point in these waters \u2014 it opens the shallow, sand-bottomed bays that keep deeper monohulls offshore. A full-batten mainsail and furling genoa drive her; a watermaker, generator and inverter keep her independent at anchor for days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Elba 45 catamaran charter from Rhodes New Marina<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rhodes sits at the south-east corner of the Aegean, the natural gateway to the Dodecanese and the Turkish coast beyond. From the marina the cruising opens to Symi’s ochre harbour, the beaches and springs of Kos, the quiet anchorages of Tilos and Chalki, and the medieval Old Town of Rhodes itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan the week around wind and appetite. Sail in the morning, anchor over clear sand for lunch, and take the tender ashore for dinner at a harbour taverna. Aquinox can arrange boat-in dining at kitchens that sit at the water’s edge and hold the table for your arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cabins and accommodation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The six-cabin layout sleeps eight guests in four double cabins, each with a private head and separate shower, plus two further cabins for a hired skipper or crew. Air conditioning runs throughout, powered by the onboard generator. The saloon is glazed on every side, bright and cool, with a full galley aft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When to sail, and what the rate covers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The season runs from late April to the end of October. July and August bring the meltemi down the Aegean, which makes for fast reaching days and busy anchorages. June and September are quieter and the water is still warm. The weekly rate covers the yacht, her tender and outboard, bedding and towels, and the berth at Rhodes New Marina on turnaround day. Fuel, harbour dues away from base, provisioning and a skipper are extra. A skipper is worth taking for a first Dodecanese week. The channels between the islands funnel the wind, and local knowledge saves a lot of tacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
