Rhea
On board Rhea, it is the sailing that matters, not the timetable. The 54-metre ketch carries 1,000 square metres of sail on two masts and moves through the sea with remarkable ease under full canvas. Anyone who wishes may take the helm and feel what it is like to steer a large yacht under sail. Everything is possible, nothing is required.
When the ship lies at anchor in the evening, the teak deck belongs to the guests: the fully stocked bar, the deckhouse saloon, the welcoming aft deck. At night the stars stretch undisturbed above the deck, in the morning the sunrise over the sea wakes you, and if you like you can swim straight from the ship.
Up to 26 guests are accommodated in 13 cabins, generous space for a personal atmosphere. An experienced crew of ten looks after the safety and wellbeing of guests. In summer Rhea cruises Greek waters, in winter the Caribbean, linked by Atlantic crossings in spring and autumn.

Sailing Responsibly
More than 70 per cent of every passage is made under sail. The fuel is synthetic diesel (Shell GTL), which burns considerably cleaner than conventional marine diesel. This is complemented by microplastic-free soaps, reusable stainless-steel water bottles and regional market shopping in the ports of call.
