Our high capacity distinguishes Christianna Yachts as one of a very few companies in Greece that operates yachts fully licensed to accommodate large groups of friends or families up to 12 persons plus crew.

Ionian Catamarans by Petras Yachts was established more than 20 years ago in Patras in Western Greece by Stavros Kanis. It first started with a small fleet which over the years has become a bigger one and still growing. Now, with two main bases in Corfu and Lefkas has taken over the Ionian islands. We specialize in catamaran charters from, crewed or bareboat, of which the most part of our fleet consists. We also cooperate with other catamaran owners and ensure exclusive management of their yachts. With experienced skippers to lead the way and technicians all around the Ionian islands, we provide technical support everywhere in the Ionian Sea wherever our clients need it. Also, as a company we are friendly to the environment, avoiding as much of the paperwork as possible (e.g. online inventories and manuals of each yacht with 360 videos) and also we have joined the Green Sail organization, which will provide a guide and a list of activities that the clients can do in order to sail more friendly to the sea and the environment. Lastly, we have joined the Anchored organization, that provides us with the Bareboat Charter Standards and see that we meet them. All the above make us stand out from the rest. Our success is the result of hard work, dedication, always caring for our costumer’s satisfaction.
