What is included in the Charter Fee?

Inclusive Catamarans and Yachts:

Nearly all of the crewed catamarans and many of the smaller sailing monohull yachts offer inclusive charter rates. The charter fee generally includes:

  • Captain & Chef/Hostess
  • 3 meals and snacks each day on board the yacht
  • All drinks, including standard brand wine, beer, liquor and mixes
  • Air conditioned accommodations
  • On board watersports equipment (scuba gear may be additional)
  • Cruising permits, fuel, limited wifi and all on deck amenities

Extra charges for inclusive yachts can include crew gratuities, optional communications, optional marina berthing, activities and any meals taken ashore, optional hire costs of special equipment and activities such as scuba diving.

Plus Expenses Power & Mega Yachts/Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA):

If the yacht is listed as ‘+ expenses’: Larger power yachts are often plus expenses (we will notify you if the yacht is plus expenses in our quote). This means that addition to the charter fee you will also be asked to pay an Advance Provisioning Allowance of 25-30% of the charter fee. This is given to the yacht in cash prior to your charter to allow the Captain to buy fuel and provision the yacht with food and drinks per your preferences. At the end of the charter, the captain will produce full accounts of all expenditure. You will either be refunded excess money not used or asked to pay any additional costs which exceeded the Advance Provisioning Allowance.
