Skippered yacht charters are designed to assist those with little or no sailing experience to sail without the responsibility of being in charge. We will provide a skipper to sail and be responsible for your yacht, with you assisting and learning from them.

Alternatively, for the seasoned yachtsman who is short of able or willing crew, we can assist your yacht charter with you acting as skipper, but with us providing you a ready pair of crew hands to help you with the sailing.

Our skippers & crew are experienced sailors who are familiar with the area, knowing the safest harbours, the prettiest bays, the most inviting tavernas and the liveliest bars and will readily adapt the route to suit the style of holiday you would like and the places you might wish to visit.

The option of a Skippered Charter is also often used by experienced yachtsmen wishing to explore a new sailing ground by taking full advantage of the skipper’s local knowledge, both maritime or historical and his familiarity with local tavernas and bars will certainly be to your advantage!

The skipper’s responsibility is your and the boat’s safety; his priority is to skipper the yacht and make your holiday as enjoyable as possible. You would therefore typically provide the skipper’s meals, whether you eat together or not, although you may also hire a hostess to help you prepare food and drinks and clean if you wish.

With Assisted bareboat charter one of our skippers is there to help you with the sailing and as a guide to the area. You have full command of the yacht and are responsible for it and the crew.

N.B. On Skippered Charter, unlike other charter companies, we do not require a security deposit.
