USEFUL INFORMATION

YACHT CHARTER ETIQUETTE

Before embarking on your charter, feel free to ask your consultant as many questions as you need about yacht charters and what to expect. While each yacht is different, there are some general rules to ensure your charter runs both smoothly and safely.

  • To protect the decks, shoes for ashore should not be worn onboard. Soft deck shoes are acceptable, but many guests choose to relax barefoot while onboard
  • If you wish to travel with your pet, please ensure you have advised your charter consultant so that they can find you a suitably pet-friendly yacht
  • If possible, pack in soft luggage bags or check in advance how many cases can be stowed, as space for large, hard cases can be limited
  • In most cases, smoking is not permitted inside the yacht for safety reasons. While many yachts operate a policy of smoking permitted on deck only, please check with your consultant on the rule of your chosen yacht
  • While customary, the crew's gratuity is entirely a matter for your personal discretion. If you are satisfied with the level of service received on board, we would suggest an amount of 10%–20% of the charter fee to be given to the captain to be split equally among the crew
