In Greece, to hire a yacht charter, it is essential to have skipper and co-skipper with navigation experience. In the absence of one of these two positions, you can agree with the charter company to provide the skipper or co-skipper (in general a hostess), of course for a fee.

The skipper and the co-skipper check in the boat: very important operation because in less than two hours you need to know everything you need on the boat itself. If you have any doubts, you can ask for a company skipper for half a day.

Before hiring a Luxury yacht charter, it is necessary to provide the personal details of the persons on board in a special Crew List.

Yacht Charter - The things to know:

Choose the itinerary and the boat, identify the most reliable rental formula and agency, know what to check before leaving and what guarantees you have.

The success of a holiday depends on many details: neglecting them, at times, one faces problems and disappointments. Here is a mini-guide to everything you need to know to get organized.

Itinerary, dates, and crew: Three very connected elements. The choice of itinerary depends to a large extent on the ability of the crew: if there are children on board, for example, it is better not to look at all costs for a summer cruise.

Even the period chosen has great importance: The prevailing climate in July is not, in the same area, the same as at the end of August. The expert's advice is to get good information through trusted friends who know the area or specific publications in the desired navigation area.

The agency: A previous personal or friends experience is certainly a safe choice criterion. If you do not have first-hand information, try to get an idea by exploring the catalogs and the sites of the agencies, comparing the offers both in prices and in the type of motor yacht charter.

Thanks to the Internet it is now possible to do this research from home and in a short time: an opportunity to be exploited because it allows you not to stop, maybe making a mistake, to the first catalog that comes into your hand.

The boat: Even the choice of the Greece yacht charter depends on the type of crew and its needs. A family with children can sacrifice a cabin to have an extra bathroom. Conversely, a sportier adult-only crew will more easily make the opposite choice.
