Vienna Pearl

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. You can lower the deposit by adding the operator’s damage waiver.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. 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 ≈ €394 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans. Many skippers run one engine on passage to roughly halve fuel use — ask your operator if that’s fine for your boat.

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.

The boarding pack, paid at the base when you arrive, includes final cleaning, port police paperwork, bed linen and one towel set per person, a water refill, cooking gas, shore power where available, one fill of outboard fuel, and port fees for your first and last day.

Yes, every charter comes with a dinghy and outboard motor so you can get ashore easily.

Yes, you can add a professional skipper, a hostess, or a cook for the week. Each crew member needs their own cabin and provisioning, and they are booked as an optional extra.

Optional extras include a stand-up paddleboard, fishing equipment, a safety net, portable Wi-Fi, and additional linen sets, all arranged at the base.

Yes. Book by 31 January for a 10% early-booking discount, or take a two-week charter for 5% off, up to a maximum combined discount of 15%.
