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: Boat delivered with comprehensive (kasko) insurance for Mediterranean up to total loss with deductible covered by deposit, and third-party liability insurance required by law.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~56 HP engine burn roughly 4.5 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 95 L ≈ €185 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).

No, animals are not permitted on board at any time. Please plan to leave your pets at home for this charter.

The detailed nautical charts we provide cover the recommended cruising area: the Ligurian Sea, the Tyrrhenian Sea, and the coasts of Corsica and Sardinia. If you plan to sail beyond this, you must equip yourselves with detailed charts for those areas.
