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: Vessel covered by all-risk insurance policy with deductible located onboard. Loss of profit (lucro cesante) not covered.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~114 HP engines burn roughly 9.1 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 191 L ≈ €327 at €1.71/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.

A recognised sailing licence is required, with an ICC typically requested for non-Spanish skippers chartering a bareboat.

The boat is strictly for private leisure and rental use. It may not be used for commercial operations, sub-letting, commercial fishing, sporting competitions, or for carrying goods, weapons, animals, or any dangerous or toxic substances.

Yes, the number of people on board can never exceed the boat's maximum capacity, and everyone must be listed on the passenger list.

The skipper you designate is the boat's skipper at all times and cannot transfer that responsibility to another crew member. You are solely responsible for the boat and for using it in line with the rules of the relevant authorities.

Report any fault to us before doing anything, as we must authorise any repair. Faults from normal wear are fixed at our cost, and if days of your charter are lost we refund the pro-rata price of the boat excluding extras.

The boat must be returned in identical working condition, equipment and inventory as at the start of the charter, at the time and place set in your booking.
