The crew will occupy one cabin. Then you decide if you are couples sharing cabins or singles. Each ‘double’ cabin can house two guests maximum.

Before your charter, we’ll send a preference sheet so you can outline dietary requirements, favourite foods, beverage choices, and any special requests. The crew provisions on your behalf and prepares daily breakfast and lunch.

Dinners are usually enjoyed ashore at local restaurants. Dinners onshore or onboard are not included in this special price.

A crewed charter doesn’t mean you can’t get involved. Many guests enjoy learning more about sail trim, navigation, anchoring techniques, or boat systems.

Just let us know your interest level beforehand. Your skipper will happily include you without turning your holiday into a training course.

Bareboat + Crew means you charter the yacht yourself and hire a skipper separately. The structure can feel more pieced together. You remain responsible for the yacht.

A Crewed Charter is an integrated experience — the yacht, skipper, and hostess are contracted together. It’s smoother operationally, clearer financially, and designed to be as relaxing as you choose it to be.

Basically, if you don’t want to manage anything, Crewed is the cleaner option.

On these yachts, crew have their own designated cabins and facilities.

They are onboard to ensure your week runs smoothly and they maintain professional boundaries and privacy. Guest cabins are never compromised for crew accommodation.

You and your skipper collaborate.

We’ll discuss your preferences beforehand: lively towns, quiet anchorages, swimming spots, sailing time vs. short hops.

Your skipper then adapts the plan daily based on weather and conditions.

While the route is collaborative, safety and conditions guide the final call (made by the skipper).

What is the APA — and why don’t we use it here?

On most crewed charters, guests pay an APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance). It’s typically 20–30% of the charter fee and covers fuel, marina fees, food, and other variable expenses. The final amount depends on how the week unfolds.

For these selected sailing weeks, we’ve removed that uncertainty.

Instead of charging an APA, we’ve built the usual variable costs into your price through a structured “trip wallet.”

Fuel, marina fees, tourist taxes, breakfast and lunch provisioning, water toys, transfers, and one night luxury accommodation are already included.

Preferences are welcome and we will collect them in advance. And, the trip wallet is designed for quality, thoughtful provisioning, not unlimited champagne and caviar.

The only additional costs are dinners ashore and onboard, beverages beyond included service, and optional excursions.

You’re not settling up at the end of the week. You’re not guessing at final spend.

It’s a clearer structure — designed to remove ambiguity while keeping expectations aligned.

We don’t simply match you with a yacht and disappear.

We guide the selection process, ensure expectations are aligned, review crew compatibility, assist with planning before arrival, and remain available during your charter.

You’re not booking a yacht, you’re booking oversight, guidance and clarity to lessen worries, concerns and unknowns.

That difference matters.
