How do I choose the right type of charter for my trip?

Choose bareboat if you’re a licensed skipper looking for independence. Go skippered if you want to relax while a professional sails the yacht. Opt for crewed if you seek a premium, all-inclusive experience with a dedicated crew onboard.

Sun Odyssey 490

This sailboat from 49 feet has revolutionized cruising: she is the only sailboat in their category to feature movement about the deck without obstacle. For example, the sidedecks are inclined, sloping down to the cockpit floor, meaning that there is no need to step over the coaming! Life on board has never been so simple and comfortable.

All crews need to return to the redelivery port the previous day, so that in case of any damages or losses, our base team can organise any repairs. That way, the yacht will be ready in time for the next crew. It is asked that you return before 18:00, so everything is easily noticeable, otherwise the check-out procedure will be more thorough and that might be disturbing for the rest of the crew on board.

The security deposit is a refundable amount which is held via credit card (Visa or MasterCard) upon your arrival and if the yacht is redelivered without damages or loss of equipment, it is fully returned. If there is any damage or loss, then you will be notified by our base support team about the repair or replacement cost and your card will be charged with the specific amount. After that you will be sent the invoice via email.

Therefore, make sure:

That your credit card’s limit is enough for the security deposit of your yacht
You make a careful check-in
You notify our technical support team for any losses or damages during your charter
