Yachting Greece is among the oldest maritime family owned business in
Greece with more than forty years presence in the naval industry.
The company was established in 1967 by Captain George Antonatos as
Ikaros Compania De Navigation, S.A. It owned a small fleet of cargo
ships that operated in the Baltic, Mediterranean, Adriatic and Black
Sea.
In 1979 the Captain retired and his son, Nikos Antonatos took over the
family business.
He holds degrees from The School of Nautical Studies in Greece and The
London School of Foreign Trade.
Nikos having as a guide his father’s vast knowledge of the shipping
industry on one hand, his education on the other, plus the ambition of a
27 year old young man to put his own mark in the business, he decided
that it was time to steer the company towards the new horizons of
shipping which was yacht chartering in Greece at her infant stages hence
the official birth of Yachting Greece. Ikaro’s fleet of cargo ships was
sold and replaced with sailing and motor yachts offered for private
charters.

About a decade later the Internet era arrived.
Yachting Greece, always in the forefront and keeping up with the times
adapted the new technology and was among the first Greek yachting
companies to establish an Internet presence with on line service since
March of 2000.
Nikos is personally involved in day to day operations and runs the
business like a well oiled machine with the help of a loyal and
competent personnel of individuals who fully enjoy the important
responsibility of using their knowledge, expertise and his experience in
luxury yachting.
Yachting-Greece as it stands today is the product of growth and
acquisitions operating a large recreational charter fleet including over
300 yachts under management for the current season both domestically and
abroad co-operating with a handful of other reputable maritime
companies.
The company is highly respected by the Greek and International maritime
societies plus the banking community although for all intents and
purposes primarily we prefer to rely on our private funds for fleet
upgrades.
Our motto is to always look forward for a better future that has as
concrete foundation our successful past, growth, experience and foremost
our eagerness to satisfy our clients offering them the best personal
service along with efficient, safe and high standard yachts.
Thank you for your continued trust and support.
Cordially,
The Staff and Management of Yachting-Greece

Nikos Antonatos
