Papanga

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

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~78 HP engines burn roughly 6.2 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 130 L ≈ €220 at €1.69/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who holds the licence. Generally, though: A recognised sailing licence such as an ICC or IYT qualification is required, together with an adequate sailing résumé.

Year-round; the calmer northwest-monsoon season runs October–April and the breezier southeast trades April–October.
