Whether you are a sight-seer, an active sporty type or a lazy sun worshipper, a motor yacht charter offers you perhaps the best opportunity to indulge your holiday desires. There are no traffic jams, queues or other travel hassles on the sea. Having the freedom to go pretty much anywhere on a whim is a uniquely liberating experience. This short article will cover the three basic boat-charter options that are available to you.
A bare boat charter provides the least costly and thus most accessible option. This is an excellent choice families or small parties of vacationers. The lack of professional crew will allow you to fully relax and enjoy the go-anywhere freedom of a boat. There are however some things to keep in mind should you decide upon this option.
Having no professional skipper means that someone in your party will need a basic boating qualification at the very least. It will be preferable if he/she has a skippering qualification (e. G. Day skipper) and that he/she is familiar with the waters to be voyaged upon. Before launch, everyone in the party should clearly understand that the skipper is in charge, and that his or her instructions should be followed.
Others with crew roles should be clear as to exactly what they are, and what is expected of them. They should be prepared to carry out these roles in a competent, responsible fashion. The skipper should be someone with the authority and management skills to motivate and manage the 'crew'.
A second option to consider is bare-boat-with-skipper. This gives you the benefits of a bare boat charter but with an experienced skipper to smooth the way. This is a superb option if you lack the requisite skills or wish to let someone else take the responsibility. The skipper will operate the boat and allow passengers to help out and learn some basic sea skills.
A huge advantage of this option is that the skipper will have an excellent working knowledge of the cruising area. He or she will know the best spots for sight-seeing, diving, exploring and other pursuits. He or she will also take responsibility for the voyage. Knowing the buck stops with someone else can be a huge weight off your mind and allow you to kick back and fully enjoy yourself.
The most expensive option is to have a skipper with a full compliment of crew. If cost is not a major consideration, then this is without doubt the most luxurious choice. Having the vessel run entirely for your benefit frees you up to relax to the full and enjoy your voyage. A really good skipper and crew will also go a long way to making your stay on board fuss-free and enjoyable.
Whichever route you decide to take, a motor yacht charter can without question be one of the most extraordinary holiday experiences. They are available in hundreds of resorts, including the cream of the world's most desirable destinations. With virtually unlimited freedom combined with the luxuries of a modern yacht, you are unlikely to be disappointed.
