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: Each yacht is insured

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~75 HP engine burn roughly 6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 126 L ≈ €246 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

The skipper needs a valid sailing licence and VHF certificate, ideally issued by their country of residence (an ICC is widely accepted).

Linens, towels, and beach towels are available on request at the base for a small per-person charge, so just let us know in advance if you would like us to set them up for you.

Yes, we can take care of food provisioning for you so the boat is stocked when you step aboard; a small handling charge applies for the service.

Absolutely. We can add extras such as a stand-up paddleboard, an outboard engine for the tender, or external cockpit cushions, all arranged and paid for at the base.

When you return, our staff will go through the boat and safety inventory with you, just as we did at check-in, and you will both sign the checklist to confirm everything is in order.
