Who MAXIMILIAN MMIV suits
MAXIMILIAN MMIV is a 45 m motor yacht well suited to extended families or groups of friends seeking an active escape on the water. With five cabins accommodating eleven guests, she is looked after by a dedicated crew of nine. Days aboard revolve around outdoor living and water sports, whether relaxing in the jacuzzi on deck, exercising with the gym equipment, or using the swim platform to launch the seabobs.
Measuring against comparable yachts in Greece, she sits at a similar length and commands a similar weekly rate. While she has an older build year, originating in 2009 with a refit in 2018, she accommodates more guests than other options in the region. This gives full charter groups genuine flexibility when planning their sleeping arrangements without compromising on communal space.
For summer 2027, her itineraries cover destinations including Greece, Turkey, the Amalfi Coast, and the French Riviera. The best time to embark in Greece is during May, June, September, or October, when temperatures are pleasant and anchorages are quieter than during the peak heat and winds of July and August. These shoulder months provide calm conditions across both the East Mediterranean and the West Mediterranean.

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.
