Bleu Note

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 ~40 HP engine burn roughly 3.2 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 67 L ≈ €134 at €2.00/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not for this boat — the operator charters it without a licence requirement. Generally, though: A Klein Vaarbewijs is required for vessels over 15 m or capable of more than 20 km/h; the ICC and equivalents are recognised.

April–October on the IJsselmeer, Wadden Sea and Zeeland; breezy, changeable conditions with long daylight in mid-summer.
