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. For damage it doesn't cover, your liability is usually limited to the security deposit, except where the operator's terms say otherwise. Operator terms: All yachts are insured against third party liability, sea pollution, and damage to hull, machinery and equipment. Insurance and tax (including VAT) are included in the charter price.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~57 HP engine burns roughly 4.6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 97 L ≈ €189 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who holds the licence. Generally, though: 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.

Itineraries are kept flexible because of weather and other unpredictable factors. The Captain's decision on safety is always final, so your route may need to change to keep everyone and the yacht safe.

You get the yacht with its inventory equipment, safety and galley equipment, a dinghy, gas, blankets and pillows, and bed linen and towels per person. Mooring fees for the first and last night, plus insurance and VAT, are also covered. The outboard for the dinghy may cost extra, as set out in your quote.

Plan for provisions, toiletries, running expenses, and mooring and water/electricity fees during the charter. There is also a compulsory end-cleaning fee of 250 EUR per booking, payable at the base before you board.

Yes, the skipper fee is not part of the charter price. It is paid in cash on embarkation day.

It's possible on request, but a delivery and/or redelivery fee applies when a charter starts or ends outside the yacht's home port.

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