Kalisi Mou at anchor

Kalisi Mou

Welcome aboard

Kalosorisate

Kalisi Mou means “my beautiful.” We hope you’ll see why by the end of the week.

We’re Taki and Jackelyn, and she’s ours. Taki grew up spending summers in Greece — barefoot in the villages, watermelon on the dock, falling asleep to the cicadas — and we’ve spent years since sailing and eating our way around these islands. Handing her over for a week feels a bit like lending friends our favourite house. We want you to feel completely at home.

Dimitris knows these waters well. Tell him the kind of days you’re after — a quiet cove, a lively harbour, the taverna with no sign on the door — and let him and the wind work out the rest.

Everything you’re likely to need is below: how she works, who to call, and the places we eat ourselves. Not a guidebook — a friend’s advice. And if anything at all isn’t right, message us. We’d much rather hear it now than at the end of the week.

Before you leave, we’d love a note in the guestbook — it’s how we make her better for the next crew.

Tip: add this page to your home screen. Once you’ve opened it, it works without signal.

Staying connected

Wifi

Ask Dimitris — he’ll give you the network and password when you come aboard.

Signal comes and goes between islands. In most harbours you’ll have 4G; in the quieter anchorages you won’t, and that’s rather the point.

Getting to know her

BoatLagoon 46 catamaran, 2021
Length · beam13.99 m · 7.68 m
Cabins4 doubles, each en-suite
Home portParoikia, Paros
Air conditioning Every cabin and the saloon. Dimitris will show you how it works.
Power at anchor The generator keeps everything running when you’re away from the marina.
Your cabin & bathroom Each double has its own bathroom with an electric toilet. Nothing goes down the toilet — not even toilet paper. Use the bin beside it. Marine plumbing blocks easily, and a blocked head can end someone's day.
The flybridge Up top, with a second helm and the best view on board.
The trampolines Forward, between the hulls. The sunniest spot aboard, and everyone’s favourite.
Swimming platform Step straight in off the stern — and climb back out just as easily.
The cockpit Covered and shaded — breakfast, long lunches, dinner under the stars.

Dimitris will walk you through everything when you board. If something stops working, he’s your first call.
