Charlie Glasspoool
Charlie has been the Captain on board Le Verseau since it was first delivered in 2016. Growing up in a Cornish fishing village has fuelled Charlie’s passion for boats and the Sea. He started his maritime career as an apprentice engineer with Princess Yachts, winning the prestigious Queens Silver Medal for the best Apprentice in the UK 2001. After 10 years of engineering, Charlie changed direction and in 2007 pursued a career as a Yacht Captain. After a 3 year period of working as a delivery skipper for Princess Yachts and Sunseeker, Charlie secured his first Captain's job in the Med. 12 years on from that and a successful career behind him, Charlie is still enjoying his role on board Le Verseau. In his spare time Charlie loves to spend as much time with his family as possible, enjoying mountain biking with his son, swimming with his daughter and if he does get time to himself, Charlie likes to get back out on the water sailing his Hobbie Tiger or kite surfing with his friends.

About the yacht
About LE VERSEAU
Description as supplied.
The 40m LE VERSEAU was built by the UK shipyard Princess Yachts, in 2016. World-renowned for its leading innovation in boat design, the flagship Princess 40m exemplifies quality and luxuriousness and her sleek look will immediately capture your attention. Designed for comfortable long range cruising, her deep, resin infused hull lends itself to comfortable, precise handling, coupled with the digital ABT Trac 440 stabiliser system, gives her excellent sea keeping abilities in a wide range of weather conditions. However, it's her size and space that will impress, as her 395 gross tonnes, put her at the forefront of interior volume for this size range of yacht.
LE VERSEAU's clean contemporary styling and bespoke Armani and Fendi touches illustrate the level of quality and finish found throughout. Her clever, minimalist, open design gives you a feeling of space, whilst high quality finishes and beautifully handcrafted furnishings deliver a sense of opulence. The exterior deck spaces provide a diverse arrangement to suit all occasions; whether that’s elegant alfresco dining on the upper deck, or a more relaxed informal gathering for drinks on the sundeck lounge. With foldable verandas on both sides of the main saloon, you can enjoy sundowners, watching the sunset wherever you anchor. Once the sun sets, why not go into the skylounge and catch a movie on the 75" Smart screen. Downstairs, LE VERSEAU has a large "drawbridge" style transom door, which forms an impressive beach club / bathing platform which transforms the area into a sociable space for an exciting day of water sports, or relaxation. With a garage full of toys and tenders to occupy the most adventurous of guests; whether that’s a high speed adrenaline ride on one of the jetskis, or rekindling a lost passion for waterskiing, or wakeboarding, behind her Williams 625 Jet tender. For a more sedate experience, why not take the paddleboards or open top kayaks to explore the beautiful coastlines and beaches of the Mediterranean.
It has been a priority of the owners to preserve her high quality finish and LE VERSEAU has been meticulously maintained. From the hand laid Wenge planked flooring, and the impressive walnut satin carpentry, to the bespoke upholstery throughout, it is clear that no expense has been spared to ensure this yacht remains in showroom condition. She offers a truly unique experience for enjoying Mediterranean cruising. The award winning design and her experienced crew of 7 will elevate your yachting experience to ensure that you have the most unforgettable charter.

Who LE VERSEAU suits
LE VERSEAU suits families or gatherings of friends seeking a seamless getaway, accommodating ten guests across five cabins with a professional crew of seven to attend to every detail. At 40.2 m, she provides generous outdoor and indoor living spaces, whether you are unwinding in the jacuzzi on deck, watching evening screenings in the movie theatre, or spending sun-filled hours on the water with seabobs and a water slide.
When evaluated alongside similar yachts cruising Greece, she aligns remarkably well across all key aspects. Her 40.2 m length sits comfortably within the typical range for the fleet, and she welcomes the same number of guests on board. Having entered service in 2016, her age is similar to comparable choices in the region, while her weekly rate also matches the local standard closely.
The best time to charter her is during the summer seasons, exploring the waters of the East Mediterranean across Greece, Croatia, Montenegro, Cyprus, and East Italy. For long sunny days and lively harbour atmospheres, July and August remain the peak period, while the shoulder months of June and September provide delightfully warm swimming conditions and quieter anchorages, with cruising also well suited to May and October.

Cruising Greece: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The charter season runs from April to October. Peak activity occurs in July and August, coinciding with high temperatures and the Meltemi wind in the Aegean. May, June, September, and October offer milder weather and lower traffic. The Ionian Sea generally experiences lighter winds than the Aegean, while the Saronic Gulf provides sheltered conditions. Early and late season bookings are recommended for quieter anchorages and more moderate sailing conditions.
Practical tips
- Most charters start at the Athens-area marinas (Alimos, Flisvos, Lavrio), about 30–50 minutes by car from Athens airport.
- Entry into Greek ports often requires stern-to mooring; ensure the crew is briefed on anchor deployment and line handling.
- Water supplies can be limited on smaller islands; monitor consumption and refill tanks at every opportunity in marinas.
Anchorages to know
- Lakka, PaxosA wide, horseshoe-shaped bay featuring a shallow sandy bottom, typically ranging from two to four metres in depth.
- Hydra HarbourA historic port on a vehicle-free island, requiring stern-to mooring in a tight, bustling harbour environment.
- Ormos Kleftiko, MilosA bay defined by white volcanic rock formations and sea caves, accessible only by boat.
- Gaios, PaxosA narrow, fjord-like inlet providing a sheltered natural harbour protected by the islet of Agios Nikolaos.
