Extra Mile

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.

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 ≈ €178 at €1.93/L — scale it to your own plans.

A recognised sailing licence is required — EU-issued licences and the ICC are accepted; confirm acceptance with the base in advance.

May–October along the Algarve and to Madeira/Azores; mild Atlantic conditions with steady northerly Nortada winds in high summer.
