While on a Greek yacht charter with Kavas Yachting you will be out to have a great time and no doubt have a few drinks and a party or two afloat. You’re not monks and shouldn’t be expected to be entirely dry while aboard...
Plastic is everywhere, while sailing at dusk a few miles offshore you can see the filthy air of cities just over the horizon. Living with the environment, it is only sensible to protect it, right?
Looking at aircraft routes around the world, you will often see that they don’t fly in straight lines between departure and destination, but instead curving routes...
Sailing is unnecessarily perceived as a male sport with meathead 25 year old men grinding the winches and burning 5000 calories a race from their upper bodies alone in an afternoon.What rubbish!
With the cost of owning and running a yacht, and the time you will actually use it, is there any point in owning a yacht at all? Where at Kavas Yachting it may seem obvious that we’d encourage you to charter rather than buy a boat outright (we’re in the business of chartering after all!) there are some very sound arguments against yacht ownership and in favour of companies such as us taking the responsibility of boat ownership.

After the hustle of the summer season and a forecast of dull weather and rain, you may feel you haven’t got a lot to look forward to, but why wait months for a holiday of sun, sea and relaxation when you can enjoy a fantastic holiday with a difference?
This weekend we visited Kos Island and would like to share with you our experience visiting the seclusive Therma Beach.
...Where all sailors love those rare moments on a long broad reach in perfect winds with the crew on the rail with shit eating grins across their faces, the tales we often tell are of “that storm…”, “that fire…”, or “that sudden offshore wind that caught us unawares...

Race day 2 at the 420 and 470 Junior Europeans saw an increase in breeze out on the two race courses off Bourgas, Bulgaria.
Through a very stringent process that involved a complicated algorithm, a set of dice, and the hair of a newt, we came up with our list of the 7 most interesting high-profile people who we consider true sailors. We ranked the celebrity sailors using a mathematical break down of the bandwidth of their fame divided by their admitted love and devotion for sailing. It’s inarguable. You can disagree, and we’d like to hear your thoughts, but remember this has been determined through a scientific means, so we are ultimately right.
