EL PECADO is a 25 metre Maiora from 2014, refreshed in a 2024 refit, a fast planing flybridge motor yacht that brings the Italian yard’s blend of pace and warm, classic style to the clear water of the Greek islands. She looks after nine guests across four cabins with a crew of four, and her appeal is immediate: a quick, capable hull built for island hopping, sun soaked decks fore and aft for long days in the open air and warm timber saloons that keep a party close and comfortable. For a family or a group of friends who want a stylish, properly run yacht with genuine turn of speed and an easy pace, she reads as sporty, relaxed and genuinely good value through a long week aboard.
Her point of difference is the Maiora character and the performance that comes with it. The yard built its name on fast, warmly finished motor yachts that ride cleanly and live larger than their length, and EL PECADO still shows that, holding a confident cruise of around twenty two knots and a top end near twenty six from her twin MAN engines. That turn of speed shortens the run between the Cyclades to a lively dash and opens up the quiet bays beyond, while the 2024 refit kept her finishes and systems current, so a charter aboard her feels fresh and well tended from the first day aboard.
Life in the open air spreads across her decks fore and aft. The flybridge sun deck is the natural gathering point, a run of soft seating and sun pads open to the sky, the sociable heart of the yacht for a long afternoon and for drinks as the light drops over the bay. A deck below, the aft deck sets out a shaded table for dining a few paces from the sea, with wicker chairs and the view over the water at anchor, while the foredeck opens into sun pads for lying out away from the party and a swim platform at the stern keeps the tender and the water toys close at hand for a day of swimming and exploring the coast.
Inside, the main deck is warm and welcoming, one open salon finished in honey toned timber that glows under soft light. The salon gathers around a long white sofa with the sea drawn in through large windows, a calm lounge for quiet evenings, while a lounge zone a few steps on carries the social life through the open room. Forward, a dining area with a glass topped table seats the party beneath soft light, open to the salon so the main deck reads as one easy, flowing space. The finish is warm and timeless throughout, honey timber against pale upholstery, a settled look that feels bright by day and soft after dark.
Accommodation is arranged over four cabins for nine guests. The master cabin takes a private, well lit position with a wide bed, warm timber joinery, good storage and its own bathroom, while a twin and further guest cabins, each quiet and comfortable with their own facilities, look after the rest of the party below. It is a flexible plan that suits a family or a group of friends, the twin with its single beds ready for children or younger guests sharing, every cabin lined in the same warm timber as the saloons and finished to the same comfortable standard. Fast, warm and sensibly crewed, EL PECADO is a lively and family friendly way to charter the Greek islands with the whole party kept close.
