ZIG

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 vessel is insured by the owner against material damage and personal injury. The insurance policies are regulated by Brazilian jurisprudence.

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~160 HP engines burn roughly 12.8 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 269 L ≈ €471 at €1.75/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not personally — this boat requires a skipper, who holds the licence. Generally, though: The Lessee must present a valid, internationally recognized license at the level required to command the vessel in the intended cruising area.

Not without permission. Pets or animals may only come aboard with our prior written consent, so please ask us before you book.

Yes. The boat is for recreational use only, so no commercial use, no carrying paying passengers or goods, and no racing or events without our consent. Smoking is not allowed inside the vessel, and any illegal drugs on board end the charter immediately with loss of all deposits and fees.

You must stay within the cruising area set out in the General Conditions, and only in regions where the vessel is legally permitted to sail. Leaving that area can make you personally liable for any loss the insurance does not cover.

If someone other than you will skipper, send us their license for approval first, and no unqualified person may take command. This is a bareboat charter, so any skipper or crew you hire works for you and advises on safety, navigation and anchorages, while you keep command.

Contact us immediately and take reasonable steps to protect the boat, but don't carry out major repairs or book third-party services without our approval, unless waiting would put someone at risk.
