You could only hire small boats with outboards when I was there in 2004. You should contact XenosUK - she is the expert on all things Paxos!

Hi Tony

There used to be a sailing school in Lakka, but I'm almost certain it's closed now. I've certainly not noticed any dinghies around whilst I've been there recently.

As Helen says, there are plenty of motor boats for hire, with engines ranging from 15 to 30bhp. They're perfect for pottering up and down the coast and you're now allowed to take the larger ones over to Anti Paxos.

If you've got any more questions, feel free to pm me, or visit the dedicated Paxos forum here - http://www.agni.gr/message_boards/display_cat.asp?ForumCat=10

Elaine,

Thank you for taking the time to reply, your help is much appreciated. I wonder if they would notice if I put a mast on one of their motor boat.

Regards

You could probably seek camouflage in one of the flotillas! ;)

Don't let the lack of dinghies put you off Paxos is lovely!
