About EXPLORION

Best for: groups of friends or families of up to eight, with multi-generational groups a close second.

EXPLORION is a 2023 Aquila power catamaran based in Piraeus, and her standout quality is the sheer breadth of water toys she carries: a Seabob, water skis for adults and children, wakeboard, towable tube, SUP, snorkelling gear, and a floating mat, all launched from a Highfield 420 tender with a 60hp Yamaha engine. That line-up turns every anchorage in the Aegean, Saronic Gulf, or Ionian into an activity base rather than a backdrop.

She sleeps eight guests across four en-suite cabins, a Master, a VIP, and two doubles, giving couples and families genuine privacy aboard a boat that never feels crowded. Captain Konstantinos brings years of Greek waters experience and holds coastal rescue and freediving qualifications, so guests are in safe, knowledgeable hands. Deckhand Paris, a photographer with a background in luxury yacht hospitality, keeps things running smoothly and entertainingly, while Chef Zoi crafts bespoke menus around each group's tastes and dietary needs, making meals as memorable as the sailing itself.

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
