1938 - 2018
Cpt. Stavros Arelis
Captain Stavros Arelis, the founder of Aegeotissa Yachts, was a renowned sailor and pioneer in the Greek yachting industry. He first sailed Ionian in late on his first yacht “Sunny Cruise” and continued growing the business with the first Aegeotissa boat in 1986, which quickly became a beloved landmark. He was a beloved figure in the yachting community and a true seafarer who respected the sea but never afraid of it.
Captain Stavros’ legacy lives on through “Aegeotissa Yachts”, still owned and operated by the Arelis family. He was a hero and a role model, demonstrating bravery during the tragic sinking of the Greek ferry “Samina” and always remaining humble and dedicated to his work as a sailor and captain.
Our Story
The story of Aegeotissa Yachts is a tale of passion and a deep love for the sea. Since the early 70s, the Arelis family has been immersed in the yachting field, setting the foundation for what would eventually become a beloved and successful business. The official establishment of Aegeotissa Yachts in 1984 marked the realization of a dream. The inspiration for the name “Aegeotissa” came from a dream that Maria, Cpt. Stavros’ wife, had of the Virgin Mary urging her to name the boat after her as the “Madonna of the Aegean.”
Today, Aegeotissa Yachts remains a shining example of Captain Stavros’ legacy, offering unforgettable sailing experiences in Greece. His daughters and grandchildren continue to carry on his traditions and values, ensuring that his contribution to the yachting industry will never be forgotten.
With a commitment to preserving the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the Greek islands, Aegeotissa Yachts provides an authentic and sustainable yachting experience.
