Captained charters include a professional captain who handles all aspects of sailing, while bareboat charters are for qualified sailors to operate independently.
We recommend booking captained charters at least 2 weeks in advance and bareboat charters 3-4 weeks in advance during peak season (March-November).
Your safety is our priority. If conditions are unsuitable, we'll work with you to reschedule or provide a full refund.
Yes, we can arrange catering for any charter through our preferred vendors or you're welcome to bring your own refreshments.
