A special charter yacht: Classic beauty SY EROS

A real classic beauty: 35 m luxury sailing yacht EROS, born 1939, renovated and refitted: this outstanding schooner is available for cruising in the Caribbean, for racing at famous Antigua Classic Yacht regatta – or later in Bermuda to watch the America’s Cup in style! She will spend the summer 2017 in New England and then return to the Caribbean.

EROS, then called Jeanry, was built in England for an American businessman, used later by the British Navy as a patrol boat. After the war, the Greek tycoon Stavros Niarchos bought her and renamed her EROS. She was well known in the Mediterranean – the Spanish King Carlos and his new Queen Sofia even spent their honeymoon aboard. Much later she had three different owners – and meanwhile the historical schooner has not only undergone quality restauration to the highest standards, but as well been equipped throughout with modern high tech from the engine room to galley and cabins.

She offers a lot of space for 8 guests, and of course all modern equipment like air condition, TV and WIFI as well as a lot of watertoys.
You can enjoy a fantastic charter holiday aboard this classic beauty!
