GRACE | 2009

Best for: groups of friends or couples exploring the Greek islands, with small families a close second.

Grace is a 2009 Azimut motor yacht based in Athens, and her most distinctive quality is the crew she carries. Captain George Giannakopoulos is a former member of Greece's Special Forces with a lifetime on the Aegean, trained across fast performance boats and luxury motor yachts alike. He knows the Cyclades thoroughly and brings confident seamanship, smooth route planning, and a genuinely relaxed atmosphere on board. Deckhand and steward Dionysis Deligiannis backs him up with a strong hospitality background covering food presentation, cocktail preparation, and attentive guest service.

Grace sleeps up to 6 guests across 3 en-suite staterooms: a master cabin, a VIP cabin, and a twin cabin convertible to a double. That layout works well for two or three couples, or a small group wanting their own space. George is also a qualified water-sports instructor and an avid fisherman, so days can be as active or as easy as guests prefer. Five seasons of strong guest reviews confirm she runs as a tight, well-managed operation.
