Charter types

How do you want
to sail?

Same sea, five ways to charter it. The difference is who runs the boat — you, our crew, or a bit of both.

Every option comes with the same hand-picked fleet, the same local team, and a real quote the same day.

Choosing

One decision does most of the work.

Who runs the boat? Answer that and the rest of the charter falls into place — the licence question, the budget, and how much work your week involves.

Sail it yourself, join a led fleet, book a single cabin, hand the whole week to a crew — or learn the ropes on a course. Each option below tells you who it suits and what the licence rules are.

Real boats and a local team behind every option — tap one to see how it works.

Still deciding

A quick way to choose.

Match your crew to the closest line below. If two lines fit, tell us both on WhatsApp — comparing options is most of what we do all day.

  • Licensed skipper, confident crew — go bareboat.
  • First charter in charge — join a flotilla.
  • Nobody wants a job all week — take it crewed.
  • Two of you, or travelling solo — book a cabin.
  • After the licence itself — start with a sailing course.
