Yes — every boat on charter.boats is insured by its operator; we require it. The policy covers the vessel for fire, collision and third-party liability. You're only responsible for damage it doesn't cover, and that's capped at the security deposit. Operator terms: Charterer carries alone any resulting responsibilities and shall answer to appropriate authorities for prohibited acts.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~55 HP engine burn roughly 4.4 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 92 L ≈ €179 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Two crew with proof of competence are required — a skipper holding an ICC or national equivalent and a co-skipper who signs a declaration of sailing experience.

Yes, pets are welcome for a 50 euro per charter cleaning fee, payable in cash at embarkation.

At least one crew member must show the Port Authority a sailing certificate proving competence as skipper, and a co-skipper with equivalent certification or a signed experience declaration is also needed.

You may sail at night only with all navigation lights working and a sufficient watch on deck. Please reduce sail when needed and don't sail in areas not properly covered by your charts.

Don't leave port or anchorage if the harbour authorities have banned sailing, if the yacht has unrepaired damage or any vital equipment isn't working, if fuel reserves are low, or whenever weather or the state of the yacht or crew makes safety doubtful.

The number of people on board at sea must never exceed the yacht's maximum capacity. You also may not use the yacht for anything against customs or fishing laws, or to seek or take objects of archaeological value.

April–October, hot and dry with the strong northerly Meltemi wind peaking in July–August, especially across the Cyclades.
