Zeppelin | Oceanis 45 sailboat rental

Starting at Paleros in the Ionian Islands of Greece, sailors can explore regional coastal passages and protected anchorages. Built in 2012 by Bénéteau, the Oceanis 45 Zeppelin is a sailboat measuring 13.85 m (45 ft) in length with a draft of 2.27 m (7 ft). She is available for both bareboat and skippered charter, offering flexible cruising options depending on crew sailing experience.

The interior layout features 4 cabins and 2 heads, accommodating up to 10 people on board. Each cabin is fitted with electric fans to ensure steady air circulation during warmer periods. Outdoor speakers are installed in the cockpit for listening to music while moored or underway. To support battery health and extend time between port calls, Zeppelin includes solar panels and an inverter to power essential onboard electronics.

Under sail, she is rigged with a full batten mainsail and 2 steering wheels, with an autopilot assisting course keeping during open passages. Maneuvering in tight marina berths is simplified by a bow thruster. Auxiliary propulsion is supplied by a 54 HP engine, backed by a 200 L fuel tank and a 570 L water tank capacity. The sailboat is operated and managed by the charter company Ionian Catamarans.
