Yes — every boat on charter.boats is insured by its operator; we require it. The policy covers the vessel for fire, collision and third-party liability. You're only responsible for damage it doesn't cover, and that's capped at the security deposit. Operator terms: Owner will insure yacht against fire, marine, and collision risks

Two crew with proof of competence are required — a skipper holding an ICC or national equivalent and a co-skipper who signs a declaration of sailing experience.

You may use the yacht only for the private pleasure of your party. Racing and towing other craft are not allowed except in an emergency, and you may not sublet the yacht.

Your party must include at least one qualified skipper and at least one experienced crew member. Only people listed on the crew/passenger manifest may be aboard.

The yacht must stay within the area of the Greek seas. Taking her outside that area requires our written consent.

If you fail to return the yacht on time, a late charge applies at the daily charter rate increased by fifty percent for each day or part of a day until she is returned.

April–October, hot and dry with the strong northerly Meltemi wind peaking in July–August, especially across the Cyclades.
