## Sun Odyssey 490 — Greece There is a particular logic to the Sun Odyssey 490, and you can read it on deck before you ever go below: the range's familiar strengths, taken one step further rather than reinvented. Nothing here shouts. Everything is where an experienced hand would expect it to be. She sails the Greek islands, which suits her well — a yacht built around easy, unforced comfort is exactly what those short island hops reward. Mornings spent working the sails between anchorages, afternoons at rest in a bay with the swim ladder down, evenings in the cockpit while the wind drops off the headland. ### Accommodation Six cabins, twelve guests. Four cabins are arranged with a double bed, one with a single bed, and one with bunk beds — a layout that handles a group of friends or two families sharing the season's charter without anyone drawing the short straw. ### Life on board The appeal of a yacht like this is its lack of pretension. Interiors are calm and practical, made for wet swimsuits and bare feet as much as for a long dinner at anchor. The cockpit is the real living room, and it stays that way from breakfast to the last glass of the evening. ### Crew Your crew handles the sailing, the provisioning and the daily rhythm of the itinerary, adjusting the route to the meltemi and to your own pace rather than to a fixed programme. Discreet when you want the day to yourself, on hand the moment you need them.
