What does the charter price include for a crewed yacht?

The charter fee covers the yacht itself and the full professional crew — typically a captain and chef/hostess. Fuel, provisioning, marina fees, port taxes, and consumables are covered separately through the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance).

What is APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance)?

APA is a running-expenses fund paid upfront — typically 30–35 % of the base charter fee. It covers fuel, food and beverages, port dues, and any other on-charter costs. Unused APA is refunded at the end of your charter; if expenses exceed it, the difference is settled on the last day.

Do I need sailing experience for a crewed charter?

No sailing experience is required. The professional captain handles all navigation and seamanship. You are a guest on board — simply enjoy the cruise.

What crew is included?

The crew for Shaft typically includes a licensed captain and at least one additional crew member (chef/hostess). Exact crew composition depends on the vessel and is confirmed at booking.

Is crew gratuity included?

Crew gratuity is not included in the charter fee. Industry standard is 10–20 % of the base charter fee, paid directly to the crew at the end of the charter based on your satisfaction. It is discretionary but strongly customary.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Standard check-in is 17:00 and check-out is 09:00. The crew will be on board to welcome you. Saturday is the most common changeover day for weekly charters.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellation terms vary by fleet and season. Typically a 30–50 % deposit is due at signing, with the balance 8 weeks before departure. We strongly recommend comprehensive charter travel insurance to protect against unforeseen events.

What is the security deposit for?

A security deposit of 5000.0 EUR is held against any accidental damage to the yacht or its equipment during your charter. It is fully refunded after the vessel is returned in good condition and the handover inspection is complete.
