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 must ensure yacht covered by comprehensive insurance for property damage and ship liability insurance. Coverage minimum €1,000,000 or equivalent.

Fuel isn't included, and on a powerboat it's the biggest variable cost. At a typical planing cruise this boat's 260 HP engine burn roughly 39 L/h — about €73 an hour at €1.87/L. It depends heavily on speed: easing off the throttle cuts it sharply, running flat out raises it. Plan your fuel around the hours and speed you expect to cruise.

At least one crew member must hold a recognised sailing licence (ICC or national equivalent) plus a VHF/SRC radio operator certificate, both checked on arrival.

No, pets are not allowed on board. You also cannot carry any undeclared dutiable or dangerous goods.

Yes. We may verify the skipper's ability to navigate before handing over the yacht and can ask for proof of previous experience. If the skipper is clearly not capable of safely managing the yacht, we may require you to hire a professional skipper or decline to hand over the boat.

You must stay within the agreed cruising area, which can only be left with our express consent. We may further restrict the area or impose limits such as a night-sailing ban when navigation conditions are uncertain or unusual.

Do not leave a sheltered harbor if the forecast announces sustained winds of 7 Beaufort or more for your next leg. From announced peak gusts above 25 knots you must follow the base manager's instructions on whether to sail or return to port, otherwise damage claims may be void.

No. Without our prior written consent you may not take part in regattas or use the yacht for commercial purposes such as training, or goods or passenger transport. You also cannot take more people on board than agreed on the crew list.
