SailChecker Guided Enquiry

Independently Navigating the Yacht Charter Market

Get Started. We aim to get you underway in under 3 minutes. To help provide us with the critical information we need we created a super easy "conversational form".

Why SailChecker. We are an award-winning agent founded to take the stress and strain out of navigating you to safely booking the perfect sailing charter. We have specialists in every type of charter, on every type of boat, and in every charter region.

The "Boat Operator Fit". We coined this phrase at the start of our journey to summarise the rewarding challenge we help our clients navigate. We avoid the common pitfalls of a luxury charter, run by a budget operator, or a novice sailor booking with an operator with minimal fleet support.

We select the right boat and operator to fit your plans to create those perfect sailing memories with total peace of mind.

What We Fix. Across the charter market, boats selected via search do not end up being the charter clients book. This is due to the complex nature of charter, our consultants use their vast experience of the marketplace to navigate you to the perfect charter for your needs.

Discovery Phase. Welcome to the start of your journey with us. We know the more information we have, the better job we do at refining your choices and find you the best fit for your needs.
