Charter Guides
Clear, practical guidance for planning a better private yacht charter.
The essentials before you charter.
A simple overview of the questions clients ask most often before booking.
How yacht charter works
From the first brief to yacht selection, contracts, preferences and embarkation.
Understanding the total cost
How the charter fee, APA, taxes, delivery fees and gratuity can fit together.
Choosing the right yacht
Size matters, but layout, crew, toys, style and how you plan to use the yacht matter just as much.
Choosing the right destination
Weather, cruising distances, nightlife, quiet anchorages and the rhythm you want for the week.
When to book
Why the best timing depends on destination, school holidays, major events and how specific your brief is.
What your broker does
A good broker filters the market, compares options, coordinates the process and helps you avoid poor fits.
