 Bareboat
Charter Beneteau 473. One-Way Athens to Rhodes.
2003
What we liked most was Poseidon Charters staffs'
wonderful personal touch, their intimate knowledge
of the Greek island and their genuine interest
in all aspects of our trip (one-way Athens-Rhodes
yacht, Athens & Rhodes hotels, insurance,
etc..). Having done this trip twice now indicates
just how much we love the Greek islands and Poseidon
Charters!

The yacht was beautifully presented. We arrived
late at night and lights were on for us, with
a bottle of wine and a bowl of fruit, very welcome
after a days traveling. The local Turkish base
staff were helpful
and friendly, assisting us with all our needs
and more. The sailing itinerary seemed to be individualized
for us to make the most of the time and conditions.
Responses from Steve Parry at Poseidon Charters'
main office were efficient and helpful.

Adventure Cruise & Flotilla Program, Greece

We enjoyed the freedom of having our own boat
coupled with the safety net of having an experienced
captain on the lead boat to give us directions
and instructions for each day's sail, and not
having to worry about making difficult decisions
on when to sail or not depending on the temperamental
Aegean winds, something we didn't feel sufficiently
experienced to do, and thus the flotilla setup
was ideally suited to us. It also made everything
a lot easier to have someone with local knowledge
to give us tips on where and how to moor, as well
as good places to go out.

Turkish Gulet Cruise
'By the Cabin' Charter, Turkey 2003
Poseidon Charters arranged a 'Gulet' cruise along
the Turquoise Coast of Turkey aboard the 62 foot
M/S Kadirga. We were able to charter by the cabin,
sharing the spacious gulet with two other couples
 and
a crew of three. Every day brought a new adventure,
from mud baths to visiting St. Nicholas island
and taking in a spectacular sunset high on the
cliffs. At our final port of call in Fethiye,
we were able to enjoy a massage in a Turkish "hammam",
followed by a shopping spree in the bazaar.
Our seven day trip was relaxing and we were thoroughly
spoiled by the great Turkish cuisine offered three
times a day around a large dining table under
the aft canopy. Sailing "by the cabin charter"
on a gulet is unique since it offers the comfort
of a large yacht with cabins which are spacious
by sailboat standards, as well as private washrooms.
The topside space easily accommodates all passengers
for sunbathing as well as sleeping under the stars.
With one exception, all evenings were spent anchored
out.
All in all, our gulet voyage was a memorable experience
and we would love to do it again with Poseidon
Charters!

 I
have visited Greece many times but this was my
1st time sailing. Poseidon Charters staff and
services were wonderful. I would very much like
to sail with Poseidon again for my holiday. Caio

It was the first time for Gianna, but the second
time through your wonderful 2 week Archaeological
circuit for me. I am so pleased that I could share
the experience with her. The sites, food, Poseidon
staff and services were all 5 star! See you again
soon. Many thanks.

Crewed Yacht charter,
Greece 2002
When we first began our search for a crewed power
yacht in the Greek Islands we were concerned that
 we
were on unchartered waters...we didn't know what
to expect or who to rely on. Poseidon Charters
have very firm rules for good reason but at first
they didn't seem to have the flexibility that
we required. We challenged you to have a minivan
at the airport that would get seven of us to the
slip in time to cross the Saronic Gulf in time
to travel inland 45 minutes and get us to the
6000 year old amphitheater for the once a year
production of Hercules. No problem, it worked
great.
It was your thorough communication and personal
visit to the boat that gave us enough confidence
to move forward. As a boat owner I knew what to
look for but it was the final inspection and the
greeting of the crew that finally put us at rest.
The schedule was altered to address our whims
whenever we taste. The crew anticipated our needs
and even figured out that I'm picky about having
a real cold beer on hand.
As a captain, I really marveled at the delicate
maneuvers required to double or triple dock where
there were just too many boats for the facility.
There was never a moment when I felt that poor
decisions were being made. The captain was always
in control and maintained low profile otherwise.
I really don't know how the trip could have been
improved on except perhaps we could see the rest
of the islands earlier in the season as the weather
permits. I guess we will just have to consider
that upon our return. Thanks so much for all your
help in making our trip so memorable!

First of all thanks for the pictures that we received
this week. They are a nice reminder of the wonderful
 holiday
we spent with Poseidon sailing the Turkish waters
on our 63 foot ketch, 'Dragut'.
The high expectations we had of the sailing trip
were definitely fulfilled. You and Gary were excellent
captain and crew. You took us to nice and unexpected
places and you were both fun to be with. You could
even handle our 6 kids on board, quite an achievement!
We definitely will try to sail with you next year
again.
Maybe this time the Greek waters? We wish you
the best until then!

Bareboat with Skipper,
Greece 2002
Just returned from our trip to Europe and I wanted
to send a quick note on a couple of things. First,
it was FANTASTIC! I'm writing to provide feedback
on a charter trip with skipper with Poseidon Charters.
I chartered a brand new Beneteau Oceanis 393 with
Capt. Mixalis Vagenas as the skipper on 1 June
 for
a 5-day cruise from Rhodes to Samos. The experience
from start to finish was excellent. The boat was
perfect - clean, well-outfitted and completely
prepared for us. But what made the whole experience
really great was Mixalis. Not only is he an excellent,
knowledgeable and safe sailor, he is an outstanding
person. Within an hour of starting out he felt
like a friend.
Mixalis went out of his way to be sure we had
a great time and that we didn't have to worry
about anything. One of our passengers was unfamiliar
with sailing and a bit uncomfortable at times
- he was very aware of the situation and helped
her feel comfortable. By the second day his efforts
ensured she had a great time. He shared with us
his extensive knowledge of the Dodekenesse Islands
and helped us better understand Greek and island
culture. He is a great person and a great sailor.
I would highly recommend him as a skipper in any
situation. He should be at the top of your list
of skippers.
I've had many experiences chartering with skippers
and I would rank him as the best I've had.
Thanks again for a truly wonderful charter experience.
If you'd like additional information, please feel
free to contact me by email. I hope to be doing
business with you again in the future.
Best regards,
Kindest regards,

Rented a Beneteau
361 on flotilla, Greece 2002
We sailed IRINI V, a newer ('99 I think) Beneteau
361. For the 2 of us it was a terrific boat, and
could have easily accommodated another couple.
The amenities were great as well - GPS, Autohelm,
CD Player, Extra water tanks (400lt. total I think)
extra fuel in 10 lt. cans, bimini, excellent dinghy
(Zodiac) and more - really very nicely outfitted.
The boat handled he Saronic gulf very well, and
could have taken care of us on passage to the
Cyclades, but we opted to do that via ferry. I'd
recommend adding a stern rail mounted BBQ grill
for more cooking options. I would charter IRINI
V again in a heartbeat. Jan and I  simply loved the boat.
Jan and I split our 7 day charter by joining a
flotilla led by Poseidon Charters for the first
4 days, then bareboating on our own the last 3
days. I can't say enough about the service and
feeling of being part of the group that the flotilla
experience provided. Having never sailed in the
Med with it's unique challenges (and beauty!)
the sense of security we had by being part of
the flotilla was immensely valuable and gave us
the confidence we needed to venture on our own
for that last 3 days in the Aegean. I don't recall
how many times we asked for Steve's help, from
mooring on a wall, to freeing an anchor at Hydra,
but it would have been much more difficult without
his expert help. For anyone thinking about chartering
in Greece, or any other waters with which they
are not familiar, we strongly encourage joining
a flotilla for at least part of the charter. By
the way, the flexibility that Poseidon offers
far exceeds any other charter company's ability
to customize services to the degree we experienced.
We looked at a number of competitors including
The Moorings, Sunsail, GPSC. Not one could match
the total service program that Poseidon Charters
did.
We would definitely do the flotilla again - even
if only for part of the charter. The camaraderie
is wonderful and we made friends - something which
is hard to place a money value upon. The Poseidon
Team: Steve, Gary and Sharon were terrific. We
really appreciated the hospitality that was extended
to join the Aegean Dream crew for dinner on the
boat at St. Nicholas bay after a fun evening barbecue.
At all times, we felt the comfort of the flotilla
support, making our charter nearly effortless
(except Med mooring!) and worry free. Great job!!
I wish we could do this every year, and we definitely
plan on coming back.

Bareboat Charter
of a Belize 43, 2002
We enjoyed the experience with you - particularly
the 'up front' preparations. The entire experience
was phenomenal. I own a sail boat and have spent
considerable time in the Bahamas and other areas
but this was the first time for a 'charter'. I
am seriously considering giving up my boat and
becoming a permanent charterer - it certainly
doesn't cost much more than owning.

We just wanted to send Poseidon Charters a short
testimonial to compliment Captains Frode and Kristin
Flatnes, for the great job that they did during
our June 1 to 15, 2002, charter aboard the 65
foot sloop 'Margarita'. But first I must compliment
Poseidon Charters on the entire charter experience.
 Poseidon
more than met all the promises that were made
at the boat show and those in the company brochure
itinerary as well. As a teacher of secondary school
for over 34 years I have run my fair share of
field trips; one day, overnight and full week
long. I know how much work goes into creating
an enjoyable, productive outdoor experience. Poseidon
has met all the criteria in your Archaeological
Adventure Cruises Program. I would never hesitate
to recommend your trips to friends.
Now about Captain Frode Flatnes and Captain Kristin
Flatnes.
Clare and I have been home from our Archaeological
Adventure Cruise just long enough to reflect on
our two weeks aboard 'Margarita'. Our experiences
on the charter more than met all of our expectations.
Not only was the itinerary superbly crafted and
expedited, but our skippers Frode and Kristin
were the gems of the trip. They were competent
and full of youthful enthusiasm, always ready
to assist. The fact that back home in Norway,
they both had worked with young people aboard
a sail training vessel could account for their
sensitivity to our needs throughout all aspects
of out voyage. But it was a real plus to learn
that Frode is also an accredited, practicing Registered
Nurse.
We enjoyed a number of robust sails during our
two weeks, with winds rising one day to 30 knots
and then increasing to gale force the next. Under
Frodes capable seamanship, we reefed down the
main and adjusted the sails so that aboard Margarita,
it was calm and comfortable. Frode arranged the
running of the ship throughout the charter so
that everyone got experience with all aspects
of sailing and docking. This included giving the
novices experience on the helm as well as allowing
those of us who were willing, the opportunity
to anchor the boat, backing her down stern first
to the sea wall in the typical Med. docking routine.
On our last day of sailing with the wind on the
nose and salt spray flying over the foredeck,
I asked Frode why he seemed to enjoy going forward
and taking the salt spray in his face. His answer;
» I am quite comfortable in salt water.
And My hair combs out better after being in salt
water spray.. » I think I can speak for
all of our « crew » when I say that
this was a great charter experience for all of
us.
Thank you Poseidon!

Just a note to tell you how wonderful we thought
our travel with Poseidon Charters was. We have
been spreading the word among friends and E-mailing
them the URL for the photo web site. We love the
photo of me on the boat and have a framed 8 x
10 higher resolution copy sitting on our kitchen
table. We had a lot of fun, enjoyed the variety
of activities and people, saw super stuff, ate
well, relaxed, slept well. It was a SUPER vacation.
Best wishes to you, Frode and Kristin, and Panos.

'By the Cabin' Charter, Greece 2002
I really wanted to let you know what an absolutely
awesome time I had on the adventure. The trip
could not have been more perfect, and exactly
what I was looking for in a sailing vacation.
More actual sailing and less motoring would have
been an added bonus, but there was no wind on
many crossings and I understand we needed to get
into ports. Sharon and Gary were absolutely wonderful
- 2 people who did an extraordinary job in making
this trip memorable. Sharon was always there for
us -whenever you needed
help either on the deck, in the cabins, at the
galley , or in ports she would make sure you understood
what was going on and what needed to be done.
She was an excellent guide in all the ports ,
and didn't make you feel that you were left on
your own to figure things out. But at the same
time, she could sense when you wanted time to
yourself to be alone. Trying to be a hostess to
a wide range of personalities is a very demanding
job, and Sharon does that job exceptionally well.
I could not have asked for a friendlier, more
personable, or experienced captain than Gary.
I felt at complete peace and security with Gary
as captain. I knew nothing would go wrong on the
trip, as soon as I sailed with him for the first
few minutes. He has a manner about him that is
very quiet, and is able to take in everything
around him to make decisions. I wanted a trip
where I could do a lot of the sailing - not just
the captain; I was able to do this on this trip,
and while doing so, was not put down upon because
of something I did not know how to do before.
We were all encouraged to gain more experience
in our sailing skills, and Gary was there to assist
us in an encouraging way. He was able to make
each of us a better sailor by meeting us at our
own comfort levels, and then nudging us to grow
further. I cannot compliment Gary enough for a
job well done. I would most definitely recommend
him to others if they are in need of a captain.
Thanks again Steve. I also wanted to let you know
the hotel in Athens was great. If I come back
to Greece, and need to stay in Athens, that would
be the place to stay ! As your next season approaches,
if anyone is debating whether they should use
your company or not, you may feel free to give
them my email or phone number, and have them contact
me. I would be happy to let them know about my
experience with Poseidon Charters. Happy Sailing!

Bareboat from a Repeat
Sailor, Dodecanese/Cyclades 2001 & Cyclades
1999
After spending a number of years in the Great
Lakes region of Canada dingy and keelboat racing,
I was introduced to the excitement and pleasures
of sailing vacations in 1993. Since then, I've
done bareboat charters in Scotland, Florida, the
USVI's, BVI's, St. Vincent and the Grenadines,
and Greece. While researching for my first sailing
trip to Greece in 1999, I had the good fortune
of speaking to Steven Parry of Poseidon Charters.
I spent a great deal of time researching a sailing
trip to Greece, spoke to at least 7 different
charter operators and brokers, and was immediately
impressed with Steven's superior experience and
knowledge of the Greek waters. This was especially
important to me as it was to be my first time
sailing in Greece, and first time acting as Captain
of a bareboat charter. Even before I had made
my decision to go with Poseidon, Steven took the
time to discuss with me the weather patterns and
hazards of the areas I was interested in sailing,
and was very helpful in pointing out the «
must see » places of cultural antiquity
and the « must do » activities on
the local islands. Steven took the time to help
me plan my course in detail, being careful to
cater to the safety and pleasure of my entire
crew. It was clear that Poseidon was the right
choice, and I was happy to find that the rates
were competitive as well. Our yacht was a new
Beneteau Oceanis 411.
In 2001, I was planning a second trip to Greece
... again, Steven and Poseidon gave me excellent
service, and offered competitive rates and a wide
range of very suitable and well-equipped yachts.
We chose a Beneteau First 45F5 from Rhodes to
Paros. With his help, I planned and executed yet
another successful trip, and my friends and I
look forward to being able to get back to the
Greek islands again soon ... with Captain Parry
and Poseidon's guidance, of course!

you for taking such good care of us - between
us we certainly have changed mike's life - he
plans to continue sailing and you will probably
see him in the Caribbean and maybe again in Greece
- I hope that you will stop in Cape May and stay
overnight on your way to and from the boat show
- you really should see the boat that Bill built
- it is quite different and is fast. The Dixons
from Pa. are coming here for their anniversary
from the 14th of september to the 18th. It will
be fun catching up with them.

Crewed Bareboat Charter,
Greece 1999.
Kali Mera! Jack and I can't thank you enough for
making our charter with you in Greece "an adventure
beyond expectation"! Sailing in the Cyclades is
truly, "the most fascinating in the world". I
have sailed the Chesapeake, New England, both
Florida coasts, the Virgin Islands and the Grenadines.
None compare to the magic of Greece.
I don't know what we enjoyed more; the majestic
beauty of the islands, the quaint villages, the
fabulous
food or the great shopping. Of course none would
have been as wonderful without your knowledgeable
guidance and fun loving nature. What a pleasure
it was to be so warmly welcomed by your friends
at the
local tavernas and shops. And how easy it was
to find the exquisite archaeological hidden treasures
never seen by most who visit these islands.
We discovered early on, with your experience of
nine years sailing these waters, you always knew
the best stops to swim, snorkel, sightsee and
eat. We were more than content to follow the well
planned 'Aegean Adventure Tour's schedule.
With our large group of eight, it released us
from having to arrive at any group decisions making
days lazy and effortless. The special music you
provided on board  was an unexpected
treat. We are envious of your extensive collection
of CDs.
Perhaps the most important was the absolute assurance
we felt with your expertise as captain. It was
obvious immediately that we were in the safe hands
of someone well trained in all areas of seamanship.
Even with our inexperienced crew ,you were always
patient and provided clear instructions. We took
great comfort having met you prior top the trip,
there were no surprises with unknown captains
or quirky personalities. After much research we
found that only Poseidon Charters offers this
assurance. No other charter agency has such hands
on experience.
We will surely recommend this adventure to all
our boat show cronies and friends. It was a perfect
way to celebrate my 'big' birthday and will provide
many fond memories for years to come. We are already
planning our next adventure sailing the Turkish
coast with Poseidon Charters. Thank you for a
wonderful
experience.

To Whom it May Concern:
I work as an independent contractor sourcing office-building
investments for a venture between Goldman Sachs
and Wellsford Real Properties. During my leisure
time I have run with the bulls in Pamplona, play
club rugby, bungee jump, ski, run long distance
road races, backpack, rock climb, hunt and sail.
Currently, I am the sail fleet captain for the
Maryland yacht club, a 90 year old club located
on the Chesapeake Bay.
 My
wife and I contemplated our two-week trip to the
Greek islands for three years. Not only did we
speak with a representative from Poseidon Charters
at two annual US Boat Shows but we also spoke
with the competition. We sent for brochures, surfed
the web, and read books on Greece. We even spoke
to a solo circumnavigator who convinced us that
bareboating was not the way to go. We became convinced
(and remain so) that Poseidon Charters had the
program with the most adventure and personal attention
to the overall experience.
Poseidon Charters' brochure promised exactly what
was produced. We experienced a sailing tour of
the Greek Islands, where we saw great beauty as
well as antiquities, in both remote and cosmopolitan
settings. We sailed the boat as crew to an ambitious
number of islands, each with its own food, culture
and beauty. The brochure promised time for ourselves,
which we got, as well as organized outings, which
also happened. Along the way I spoke with other
Americans, who were both bare boating and touring
with captains. Not only were they all making only
about half the landfalls we were, but also they
related horrific tales of difficulties at the
anchorages.
Captain Parry exhibited a flexible, upbeat style
of authority both on board and ashore. As relaxed
as he appeared, the two of us who captain our
own boats at home, noted the watchfulness. He
was
immediately alert to a change in rpm's, a deviation
of course, a shift in wind, an event that would
change the sail plan, or a potentially dangerous
situation. In short, he was trained, experienced,
and he knew where he was going and what lay ahead.
In our opinion Poseidon Charters is the only choice
for sailing the Greek islands.

We have told so many people about our sailing
trip. About half of them are dumb founded because
they can't imagine being on a "little boat". They
can only relate to cruise ships with 1000+ passengers.
Go figure! The other half are envious and curious
about all the details of our trip. It takes all
kinds! We really enjoyed our shipmates and although
there was a great diversity of personalities,
it kept things interesting and fun. Of course,
whoever "up there" dictates the weather was exceedingly
kind to us. We greatly enjoyed your company, "killer

good holiday season and take care.

 I
wanted to tell you what a great time I had in
Greece - The two weeks in the Aegean were all
I'd imagined they would be. The skipper went out
of his way to make sure that we had lots of variety
everyday - so many different islands, little off
the beaten track bays for swimming, gorgeous on
board lunches and lovely tavernas for dinners.
I was especially touched by my surprise birthday
party - and the middle of the night farewell,
complete with hot tea and smiling faces! Bravo
Poseidon!

Welcome home! Hope that your third trip went well
- not as much fun as the second, but a more proficient
crew?! I enjoyed the entire experience and I shall
look forward to hearing of your plans for next
year. It was a great escape- thank you! Enjoy
the photos and get a well deserved rest!
