Clipper IV

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: The boat is insured all-risk with an excess covered by the security deposit (per claim). Third-party liability covers personal injury and property damage up to EUR 5,000,000.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~120 HP engines burn roughly 9.6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 202 L ≈ €345 at €1.71/L — scale it to your own plans.

A recognised sailing licence is required, with an ICC typically requested for non-Spanish skippers chartering a bareboat.

Your charter area is the Balearic Islands. If you'd like to go beyond it, you need our permission first.

Yes. The boat can't be used for racing, paid passenger or cargo transport, sailing practice for a qualification, or be sublet or handed to third parties. Towing is only allowed in a genuine emergency, and smoking below deck and leaving the boat unattended off an open coast aren't permitted.

If a storm warning or dangerous seas (from force 7 Bft) are announced, please stay in port or the cove, or head for the nearest safe shelter. Bad weather doesn't excuse a late return, so spend your last 24 hours close to the return port.

You can take only as many people as the boat's papers and our insurer allow, skipper included. We ask for a written crew list with names, ID details and ages ahead of your trip.

Please return it free of rubbish, with clean dishes and an empty holding tank. Unemptied holding tanks are charged at EUR 150 each (EUR 360 if clogged), and extra cleaning after return costs EUR 35 per hour.

April–October across the Balearics and Costa Brava; reliable warm summers, busiest in July–August with the occasional afternoon thermal breeze.
