BOOKING PROCEDURES
How to book your Yacht Charter step by step and embark on your ideal vacation.
WHAT THEN?
INFORMATION
We provide all information needed, such as:
- Base information and contacts
- Forms of the crew list
- Provisions, etc.
You must provide us:
- Crew list together with passport numbers
- Arrival information (Arrival day, time, flight, airport, etc.)

- Orders of any optional extras needed.
UPON ARRIVAL
We will give you a thorough briefing of the yacht, its operation, the equipment, and safety devices onboard. Also information on weather, destinations, what to see and do and answer any questions you may have.
Charters ALWAYS begin at 17:00 (5:00 pm)on the first day. In case we can deliver the yacht earlier, we will do so, but this cannot be guaranteed. Charters end at 09:00 am on the last day of charter.
We require our clients to return to bases the evening before the end of the Charter, sleep on board and depart around 09:00 am, giving us the time to get the yacht ready for the next charter.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
On bare-boat and skippered charters we request you to pay a refundable security deposit, (which varies according to the size of the yachts) 2,000 – 5,000 Euros(€) at the time of embarkation.
This can only be paid by credit card. Payment by credit card can be used for the security deposit and for balance payment… NOT for the payment of options rented.
The security deposit is to cover in the unforeseen event any possibility of any minor damages which are not covered by the insurance of the yacht. Upon the safe return of the yacht, it will be returned in full to you.
Alternatively, we offer you the option to pay a non-refundable security deposit. Which is € 200- €500 per week. (Price depend on the Yacht)
SAILING QUALIFICATIONS
BARE-BOAT CHARTERS (i.e. Without hiring a skipper) Please note, our yachts are chartered bare-boat, under the condition that at least two members of the crew have a sailing certificate. One sailing certificate is compulsory for sailing in Greece.
The skipper’s, plus a signed affidavit from one more crew members, that he has sailing knowledge. (This is Just a formality when you hire a Skipper because the Skipper will give you instructions)
