Their journey began on Wednesday with rough weather (Beaufort 6), though the excellent seakeeping ability of the Predator 52 saw them arrive in Montenegro after approximately 8 hours of challenging cruising.

As the sun rose on Thursday morning bringing a calmer day, the team headed for the tropical Corfian waters.

Reaching Gouvia marina in Corfu after a comfortable cruise,”DEL BOY” was quickly surrounded by a beautiful fleet of Sunseeker yachts, including the recently launched Sunseeker 75 Yacht “FINEZZA”. Delivered to Corfu last year, “FINEZZA” is now available for chartering around the unspoilt Ionian sea.

For the final leg of the journey the team had the pleasure of being joined by the boat’s new owner to travel down the coast and through the Corinth Canal – the “step-child” of the Panama and Suez Canals. It stretches for 3.9 miles through a narrow gorgeway, at its widest point the canal is 21.4 metres wide. The transit requires a great deal of skill from the Captain and crew, but for his guests, the sail-through is a remarkable experience!

Nikolas Makridis commented on the sale; “We are working closely with the owner to prepare his boat for this season. Our Sunseeker Hellas team ensures that our clients are supported before and after the sale of their motor yacht.”

With the first handover of 2015 now completed, the Sunseeker Hellas team are looking forward to many others to come this season!
