What is the difference between bareboat and skippered?

On a bareboat you sail the yacht yourself and need a licence. On a skippered charter a professional skipper sails it for you.

What does a bareboat week cost?

The median bareboat week across the yachts we can book is €2,149.

Do I need a licence?

Only to sail the yacht yourself. Skippered, crewed, cabin, day and all-inclusive charters need none.

Can I book a single cabin?

Yes. A cabin charter sells one cabin on a crewed yacht, priced per berth.
