Yacht charter guide

What Is Included in a Yacht Charter?

Understand the base charter fee, APA and the items normally quoted separately.

The base charter fee

The base fee normally includes use of the yacht, her equipment and professional crew for the contracted period.

Operating expenses

Fuel, food, beverages, berthing, communications and shoreside requests are generally paid from the Advance Provisioning Allowance and reconciled against actual expenditure.

Separate items

Applicable taxes, delivery or repositioning, some communications and discretionary gratuity may be separate. A written proposal should identify each material item before commitment.
