JO I | Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht

The experience aboard JO I begins with trust, and her 11-member crew builds it beautifully from the first welcome. Captain Kostas Chatzistamou leads the charter with extensive maritime knowledge, precise decision-making, and a passion for creating meaningful journeys through the Cyclades. First Officer Ippokratis Koumartzis supports the bridge and helps water sports run smoothly, while Chief Engineer Lefteris Chondroleos works quietly in the background to keep everything operating as it should. Guests feel the impact in the best possible way: calm cruising, confident planning, and days that unfold without stress.

Chef Anastasios Demopoulos adds flavor, warmth, and a sense of occasion to life onboard, drawing on decades of culinary experience and Mediterranean inspiration. His cuisine turns mealtimes into part of the journey, whether guests are gathering after a swim, sharing stories over dinner, or lingering at the table as the islands glow in the distance. Chief Steward Nicolas Barbier, Stewardess Ifigeneia Nikolaidi, and Stewardess Halyna Horuk bring refined hospitality to every space, from thoughtful service to cabin details that make returning inside feel as enjoyable as being on deck.

For guests who want the Cyclades to feel active, playful, and easy, Bosun Marios Fillipatos and Deckhands Konstantinos Denardos, Georgios Tsoulfas, and Konstantinos Danamidis keep the outdoor experience moving with safety and enthusiasm. Water toys, beach transfers, anchoring support, and deck assistance are all handled with care, giving guests the freedom to join the fun without managing the details. With JO I’s crew beside you, the charter feels full of energy, comfort, and the deep pleasure of being expertly looked after.

7-Day Sample Motor Yacht Charter Itinerary in the Cyclades Islands, Greece:
Your Greek island story begins aboard the Benetti Golden Bay 50m luxury crewed motor yacht JO I in Athens, where a 7-day personalized Cyclades yachting itinerary unfolds across the Aegean. The route invites you into a world of whitewashed hillsides, clear-water anchorages, and golden evenings where the yacht becomes both your sanctuary and your front-row seat to Greece.

Whether you are drawn to historic sites, beach-seeking days, thrilling water adventures, or delicious Greek cuisine, the Boatbookings team will work closely with your crew to bring each preference into the itinerary with care. Days can move from culture to coastline, from water toys to long meals, from quiet mornings to vibrant island evenings. With thoughtful planning, warm hospitality, and JO I’s generous onboard comfort, the week feels beautifully paced from the first departure to the final Aegean sunset.

Beyond Greece, JO I continues her exceptional service in Croatia and Turkey, expanding the possibilities for guests who want to explore more of the Eastern Mediterranean.

Overview:
Before a single drink is poured or the first island appears, JO I already tells you what kind of charter this will be. The Benetti Golden Bay 50m luxury motor yacht brings a powerful sense of presence to the Greek sea, her streamlined profile and modern curves catching the Mediterranean light as she moves with purpose and grace. The strength of her engine gives each passage a satisfying momentum, while her amenities invite guests to enjoy the voyage as much as the destinations, with recreation, shared moments, and complete relaxation woven into the day.

On the expansive sundeck, Athens becomes part of the scenery, its ancient temples and lively port scenes unfolding around you as the yacht settles into its rhythm. The jacuzzi brings a cooling pause, soft loungers make sunbathing feel unhurried, and the bar lounge turns an Ouzo toast into a small ritual of Greek island living. By evening in Mykonos, the sky deck is ready for alfresco dining with the whitewashed port as the backdrop, then shifts into an open-air cinema where the night sky becomes part of the show. On the foredeck, the cushioned lounge keeps things simple and spectacular, with the uninterrupted horizon pulling every gaze forward.

Inside, the atmosphere is calm, polished, and filled with light, thanks to contemporary Italian influence, soft textures, and surrounding windows that keep the sea close. The saloon and sky lounge give guests a natural place to gather, with a well-stocked bar for easy drinks, a widescreen TV for laid-back downtime, and enough space for everyone to find their own rhythm. Her premium cabins are peaceful after sundown, with private bathrooms, refined finishes, and an ambiance made for proper rest. The master suite deepens that comfort with a king bed, cozy seating area, large LED TV, and a His and Hers bathroom complete with a bathtub.

The tender opens the next chapter ashore in Sifnos, where culinary tradition, local flavor, and island charm bring another dimension to the Cyclades. Back onboard, JO I’s extensive water toy collection keeps the sea within reach at all times, inviting guests to explore, play, and return to deck glowing from the water. This is a yacht built for guests who want Greece to feel alive: tasted at the table, felt in the breeze, seen from the jacuzzi, and remembered in the laughter between anchorages.
