Fully Crewed PDF Print E-mail

A crewed charter is an ideal option for freedom of sailing with luxurious service provided by the crew. It means a full package vacation with full board.

Enjoy your vacation while the captain and crew take you to some of the most beautiful cruising areas; whether you choose a tranquil bay, crowded marinas or island hopping.

The hostess will take care of food provisioning and preparing meals. However, you can go to some local restaurants and taste various specialties of the area.

You can choose among different boat types; fully crewed motor yachts, sailing yachts and motor sailers. Fully crewed charter usually implies a yacht of a larger length in order to provide more space for both passengers and the crew. Members of the crew have their own private area, cabins completely separated, thus providing more privacy for all. However, the crew is always at your disposal, whenever necessary.

The captain takes full responsibility for navigation and safety on board. He must have an extensive knowledge and experience in navigation, regulations, use of the instruments and charts and must be familiar with cruising grounds. A sailor (deckhand) is another crew member of a great help to the captain. He, as well, must have experience in sailing and a qualified certificate. Besides helping the captain, the sailor attributes to safety and security on board. The hostess is responsible for meals and she will make your journey tastier with a variety of culinary delights. You can always make arrangements regarding the meals and ask for a menu according to your preferences. The menu can be tailored to your needs.  

Fully crewed charter is usually applied to a luxury charter due to the impeccable crew service and because all the yachts are lavishly equipped with entertainment media, recreational and water sports equipment.

 
Skipper & Cook PDF Print E-mail

Guests who choose not to sail their yacht themselves have the option of adding a Skipper to their bareboat charter. If you have never sailed before, or if you would like to charter a yacht that is larger than you are comfortable handling, you can still sail the yacht of your dreams - with a little help. Your skipper brings years of sailing experience and a wealth of local knowlege, and will be your ideal guide to the pleasures of your cruising area.

Everyone loves to eat well when sailing, but not everyone enjoys working in the galley. Your charter cook helps you out by taking on everything from stowing provisions, to cooking and serving meals, to washing up afterwards. When you add a cook to your bareboat charter, you get more than just delicious meals prepared from the best local ingredients. You get time - time to spend with your family and friends sailing, snorkeling, or simply relaxing.

When adding crew to a bareboat, remember that your crew will require berths and provisioning for the duration of your charter. Since there are a limited number of cabins aboard each of our yachts, please be certain that the number of people in your party PLUS the number of crew you intend to hire do not exceed the maximum for the boat you would like to charter. Your Vacation Planning Specialist can help you choose the perfect boat for your party's needs.

Discovering a new country, island or coast by yacht is an unmatched vacation experience that can be enjoyed by all.  If you don’t have enough experience to sail by yourself, this magical experience isn’t out of reach. If you are chartering a yacht of over 30ft you can hire a Skipper to take the helm while you enjoy the surroundings.

Your skipper will take care of the day-to-day running of your yacht, leaving you free to swim, snorkel and relax. Call upon your skipper’s knowledge of local attractions, restaurants and the most sheltered anchorages. If you want to get involved then your skipper will be more than happy to show you the ropes. When your skipper is on board, they are responsible for the safety of the yacht and crew. (skipper requires own cabin)

Take the opportunity to completely relax  and let a skipper take the helm!
