Share with our Charter Managers your thoughts, previous experiences, and dream vacation to propose you all the best options in Sardinia, with related costs and prices for charter a yacht.
If you have previous (and good) sailing experiences and resume, and a valid sailing license, you can rent the boat without a skipper. Keep always in mind that in Italy usually sailboats and catamarans can be rented without skipper up to 50/55 feet. While a motor yacht always come with a crew aboard.
What type of charter are you looking for?
To propose the ideal boat for your sailing holidays, respecting the budget and crew’s requests, decide the type of charter: do you need a skipper or not? Are you renting a fully crewed yacht to receive the 5-star service you deserve?
Here are the types of charter you can opt from when you rent a boat:
- Fully crewed charter (captain + crew)
- Boat with skipper (bareboat + skipper)
- Bareboat charter (without skipper)
- Cabin charter (shared)
A yacht with a full crew has stable members that work constantly aboard all the season/year around. The crew is usually composed of more than one member: the Captain, the hostess/cook, or captain deckhand and hostess/cook for up to 20 meters (65 feet) yacht. The number of crew members depends on the yacht’s feet, so the bigger is the yacht, the greater the number of crew members.
A bareboat charter is when you rent a yacht without a captain because you or one of your friends has the sailing license (or if it’s not required in your country of origin, you already have enough sailing experience to drive the boat by yourself). On the other hand, all the boats available in the bareboat can also be rented with a captain, hiring a skipper that can drive the boat for you. The skippers just drive the boat and take care of the external cleaning. If you are looking for more dedicated services, as internal cleaning, chef aboard, etc, than you can add a hostess or a cook.
Cabin charter is synonymous with a shared charter, usually available aboard gullets: you rent your cabin and the boat comes with other people.
