WHAT IS BAREBOAT YACHT CHARTER ?......

BOOKINGS NOW BEING TAKEN FOR 2010 - BOOK EARLY FOR THE BEST YACHTS & EARLY BOOKING DISCOUNTS !
Bareboat Yacht Charter is just like renting a car. You sail her yourself. You are the skipper and therefore you can go wherever you wish, at your own pace. Charters run from Saturday to Saturday (usually), with embarkation being aroun 5pm and disembarkation around 8am. - 9am, in most cases you are expected to return the yacht the evening before you depart. Most charters are round trips, returning to the base from where you started, although if you book early we can usually organise one -way charters if required.
At least one member of your party must hold sailing qualifications equivalent to RYA/DOT Day Skipper level (in some cases if you can provide a resume detailing adequate experience of skippering a similar size yacht in similar waters, this may suffice), for Greece, a second person must be qualified, or experienced, to RYA/DOT Competent Crew level. For Croatia the Skipper must also hold a VHF license. ( In all cases, the yacht owner/operator reserves the right to insist you take on a skipper, at your cost, if they feel you do not have adequate qualification, experience, or skills. - so please, if you are in any doubt please clarify this with us before hand).
If you feel you under qualified, or would just prefer to have a more relaxing time, then why take a Skippered Charter?, with a skipper, who can take over all the responsibilities of the yacht, as well as acting as a guide, taking you to all the best ( and often known only by the locals) bays and anchorages.
All our yachts come fully equipped with everything you will need, from safety equipment to galley equipment, dinghies, outboards, bedding, linen & often towels.
Yachts available for bareboat charter are: Sailing Yachts and Catamarans from 30' to 65', Motor boats from 24' to 44. For prices and specifications click on the links in the toolbar above.
