Frequently Asked Questions

1. What licenses do I need to rent a boat?

To sail in Greece, you must hold a valid skipper’s license

 2. Do I have to hire a professional skipper?

You do not have to hire a professional skipper if you have all the necessary licenses and experience of sailing. If you want a skipper, we will be happy to recommend one. You must take care of the skipper’s meals. If you go to the restaurant without him, you will have to provide hima meal on board (the standard cost of a skipper in Greece is 1050 € per week).

3. Is the vessel insured?

As for car rentals, you have to block an amount for the guarantee (which varies according to the age and size of the boat). This amount will be returned to you at the end of your stay, if no damage is found). Of course, it is possible to take out a damage waiver to buy-back the guarantee amount. We will explain the details during your reservation process!

 4. Is it possible to charter a vessel for only a few days?

Most yachts are chartered for a period of seven days, from Saturday to Saturday, but it is also possible to rent a boat for a few days, only in pre-season and post-season.

5. What if we have children on board?

In this case, inform us about the age of the children so that we can ensurethem the appropriate size of the lifejackets. If you are traveling with small children, we can order a safety net to be placed on the threads surrounding the ship.

You can make your provisioning at each stopover during your cruise. Before you leave, we can send you a provisioning list that you complete. Yoursupplieswill be delivered upon boarding (a 10% surcharge is applied for the service).

10. Can we leave the boat at another base at the end of the rental period?

This is called a one-way. Indeed, it is possible to leave your boat at another base. If you book this service in advance, you leave your boat normally at the end of the rental (we will find the customer who will bring it back to its original base). If you book it late, it is still possible but you will have to leave the boat sooner in order to allow usto bring it back in time to its original base. For terms and prices, please contact us.

11. Can you take care of our transfer from the airport to the base?

Yes, at your request, we organize transfers from the airports to your base.
