The Variety SHARE A SAIL Concept
If your party is too small for you to charter a sailing yacht, our Share a Sail formula is the ideal sailing holiday. Book a cabin or more on one of the 25 seven day scheduled sailing dates and share the Greek Islands with another 3 couples maximum. This sailing holiday is ideal for beginners and intermediates sailors alike.

Life Onboard
The Christiana VI is a 51 ft sailing yacht with 4 cabins and well appointed, simple facilities. Both the indoor lounge and the deck seating area are comfortable. The small but comfortable cabins are, all with private SH/WC. The cabins and pubic areas are not air conditioned but have excellent natural ventilation Cat A cabins have a double bed, whereas Cat B Cabins are slightly smaller in size with both a double bed and a 3rd pullman bed.

Life ashore
Every day brings a new island, new beach, new harbour and new places to explore. Your typical day includes 4 to 7 hours of sailing, a swim stop with a simple lunch. Overnights are always in port with the opportunity to live in the Islands like the Greeks do.

Make your sailing cruise moments last forever!!!
Pack your cameras and capture your unique moments on board, or on the Islands. The best 3 photographs handed over to us on the 5th day of the cruise earn your Variety Yachting t-shirts and other prizes. Whoever manages to get his pictures on next year's Variety Cruise Book 2009/10 will get a 50 % discount on the cruise of his/her choice.
