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.

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.

No. Racing and towing other craft are not permitted except in a genuine emergency, and the boat is strictly for the private pleasure of you and your party.

Your party must include at least one qualified skipper and one experienced crew member. We may ask you and your crew to demonstrate your competence by handling the boat at sea with us aboard, and if we are not satisfied we can place a crew member on board for as long as needed for safety.

Yes. You should not leave port if the wind is forecast above 6 Beaufort, if the harbor authorities have banned sailing, or if weather conditions are doubtful. Please reduce sail when needed to keep sailing comfortable and avoid stressing the rig.

Please do not sail in areas not properly covered by your charts, and do not sail at night unless all navigation lights are working. Stick to well-charted waters and good visibility for everyone's safety.

Report any damage to us by phone right away. With our prior consent you can arrange repairs at sea, and where damage is from normal wear we will refund the agreed cost against your receipts at the end of the charter.
