Armonia

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 delivered insured with a kasko (fully comprehensive) policy for the Mediterranean, up to total loss, with an allowance covered by the Charterer's security deposit. It also has the legally required third-party liability policy.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~90 HP engines burn roughly 7.2 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 151 L ≈ €294 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who holds the licence. Generally, though: 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, animals are not allowed on board. If an animal is found on the boat, a penalty equal to half of the security deposit is charged.

The boat is for pleasure use only, for you and your own crew. Carrying paying passengers or goods, any commercial activity, regattas, and towing other vessels (except in an absolute emergency) are not allowed.

You must follow Port Authority orders and not sail in seas above force six or when dangerous weather is forecast. If you ignore this, you are liable for any damage to the boat. Plan your route so you can return on time, even bringing your return forward if bad weather is forecast.

The charts we supply cover the Ionian Greek sea. If you want to go beyond it, you need to get detailed charts for those areas yourself, and our breakdown time-recovery warranty applies only within the Ionian Greek sea.

Tell us immediately and don't carry out repairs without our authorisation. Assistance is available between 08:00 and 20:00. If the engine, rigging, sails or similar essential systems fail through no fault of yours and stop you using the boat for over 12 hours, you can recover the lost time at the end of the charter or as a credit note.

April–October, hot and dry with the strong northerly Meltemi wind peaking in July–August, especially across the Cyclades.
