Why charter this Elan 514 Impression - 4 + 1 cab.
4 cabins for 8 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 1.6 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 16,1 m, this sailing yacht needs earlier berth planning and more turning room in busy marinas.
Best charter fit
Elan 514 Impression - 4 + 1 cab. suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 5 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
The north coast of Crete
Crete’s cruising runs the length of one dramatic north coast, a chain of Venetian harbours sailed port to port from Chania and Rethymno in the west to Heraklion and Minoan Knossos in the east. With the meltemi light, the islet of Dia off Heraklion makes the first anchorage; when it blows, a berth along the harbour front is the safer first night. Heraklion Airport (HER) is a short drive, with Chania (CHQ) at the far west a long one. Sailed port to port, the north coast is a week’s run between these harbours, the legs open and the meltemi building through the day, so cross early and keep the return short.
