YACHT CHARTER

Look beyond the weekly charter rate.

Cruising area, pace, crew, variable expenses and contract terms determine whether a yacht fits the journey.

ROAMALIO PERSPECTIVE

The right cruising area and crew often matter more than extra metres.

The right service scope depends more on itinerary, group and conditions than on isolated features. The assessment therefore starts with the actual requirement.

BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE

These questions change the shortlist.

  1. 01

    Which cruising area and daily distances are realistic for the trip?

  2. 02

    Which cabin arrangement works for the actual group?

  3. 03

    Which services are covered by the charter rate, APA or a separate charge?

  4. 04

    What do the cancellation, weather and itinerary-change clauses say?

TOTAL COST VIEW

Separate the cost components.

Without a dated, provider-authorised offer, we do not present apparently precise prices.

Charter rate

Confirm the period, tax basis, inclusions and contract standard used for the quote.

APA

Understand the advance provision for variable onboard expenses, reconciliation and any balance due.

Taxes and local fees

VAT, mooring and local charges can depend on the cruising area and itinerary.

Crew and gratuity

Separate the contracted crew scope from discretionary regional gratuity practices.
