Does an enquiry reserve this boat?

Submitting an enquiry does not confirm a booking or charge you. We may place a temporary option while checking the boat, price, selected extras and operator terms. The resulting status is shown after submission.

What is included in the displayed price?

The displayed charter price excludes all mandatory charges, including cleaning or a mandatory charter pack. Every charge specified by the operator is itemized in the price breakdown and included in the charter total there.

How do I know whether my skipper licence is accepted?

Licence rules depend on the boat, flag, sailing area and sometimes VHF certification or crew experience. We verify your documents with the operator for this exact boat before proposal.

Are the nearby weeks guaranteed to remain available?

No. They are shown only when the provider returned this boat as available, and selecting one triggers a fresh price and availability check. Availability can still change before operator confirmation.

Licence and skipper requirements

The lead skipper normally needs an accepted sailing licence and, in some destinations, a VHF certificate or a second experienced crew member. Requirements vary by flag, operator and cruising area, so we verify them with the selected boat.
