Bareboat Yacht Charter
You’re in Charge!

What is a Bareboat Yacht Charter?
A Bareboat Yacht Charter is one where no crew or provision are included, although many elements, like provisioning packs are available. If your group has their own captain, then you are likely to opt for Bareboat Yacht Charter and is the commonest form of hiring a Boat. You become responsible for sailing the boat and looking after all her equipment. Obligatory insurance can be added or included.
Options
To most Bareboat Charters you can add options that vary from yacht charter agent to yacht charter agent. Many automated booking platforms will not give you full visibility of these options until you book. At SailChecker we think that it is this detail that is important and would shop around to ensure you get a charter to meet your requirements. In addition, we offer options beyond those listed by the charter agent, maybe a qualified instructor for those seeking to gain a charter license or a sailing qualification, or preparation for a long voyage.
Yacht Charter Availability
As the commonest form of boat hire, you can find a yacht in every corner of the globe. Providers range from owners renting their own yacht, to agents owning or operating large fleets in multiple locations. We can organise boat rental from 2 to 14+ passengers and ensure every detail of your trip is carefully considered and planned.

The market, even for experienced souls, can be tricky. On a quality level, some Charter Companies step up their game, whilst others regress, we help take the risk out o trying someone new. Even if you are wedded to your favorite charter partner, we think we can still add value. Even after a number of loyal years, disputes can arise, and we would be right by your side. We can often provide you with a discount over going direct too.
Other than quality, it can be tricky getting the right yacht and ensuring you understand all the extras. There maybe more than one way to cover yourself against damage and there maybe options you were no previously ware off. As independents, we can even mix and match different suppliers to perfect yachting escape.
We exist because the market is complex and abound with possibilities even our most experienced customers are happy to learn about. We love getting down into the detail of your plans and ensuring we exceed them, and for less than direct bookings. We guarantee you can book cheaper,and that your relationship with the end supplier will only be enhanced by our inclusion.

The main additions to a bareboat charter are captains or skipper, cook and hostesses. If you add someone to sail the yacht, this is similar to a crewed charter, although you tend to keep more control of what you do and where you go when you do it this way around. For some, crewed charters are often like staying at someone elses house, but can come with more equipment and great food.
Other options include provision packs, outboards if the are not included, water sports equipment, extra sails, etc.

Most charter companies have a short list of compulsory items. These do vary and are something to be wary of when using an automated booking system. They often include some kind of deposit or an option to waive and provide a smaller deposit. Almost all charge a cleaning fee and many a starter pack.

What happens if something goes wrong? All charterers should take out appropriate travel insurance and the yacht will have it’s own insurance. These two provisions deal with the majority of things that can go wrong. What you need to know is, that we are still here for support and advice after you book, whilst you are traveling and after you return. We hope the comfort of knowing you have someone to turn to advice is useful. The majority of times it’s more of helping out with minor irritants like not receiving confirmation your deposit has been returned, or disputing damage – were here whatever the issue.
