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.

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.
