Ariadne | Oceanis 40.1 sailboat rental

Based at D-Marin in Lefkas, Greece, this sailboat provides a convenient departure point for navigating the sheltered coastal waters of the Ionian Sea. Built in 2024 by Bénéteau, the Oceanis 40.1 Ariadne measures 12.87 m (42 ft) in length overall with a draft of 2.17 m (7 ft). Offered for both bareboat and skippered charters, she presents versatile sailing arrangements for cruising the regional island anchorages.

Below deck, Ariadne provides accommodation for up to 8 people across 3 cabins and 2 heads, with an electric toilet included for added practicality. Electric fans in cabins and pillows contribute to everyday comfort, while the galley area is fitted with gas cookers for meal preparation.

Powered by 1 engine, the sailboat is rigged with a half batten mainsail, 2 steering wheels, and an autopilot to assist with navigation on open water. A bow thruster facilitates controlled maneuvering during marina docking, while a VHF radio supports onboard communication and safety.
