THE BOAT

Tiger 5.5 — compact, fast, and self‑drive

This Tiger 5.5 is offered as a self‑drive speedboat rental that accommodates groups up to eight people, giving experienced boaters direct control of their day on the water.

THE FREEDOM

Explore Palairos at your own pace

Renters steer their own route along the Palairos coastline, choosing how long to cruise, where to stop, and when to anchor — a self‑directed day on the Ionian waters.

THE GROUP

Small crews, big autonomy

The boat is suitable for parties of up to eight, making it a compact option for friends or family who can provide a licensed skipper among them.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

From Palairos you lift the bow and set your own tempo: short bursts of speed, long slow drifts to swim or anchor, and the latitude to design a half‑day or full‑day route. The rental’s appeal is its self‑drive format — experienced license holders take the helm, choose the itinerary, and keep the group together for a personalized sea‑day.
