FAQ

We meet diretly in the port where the rented ship is moored, go together to the ship and we introduce you to the captain. Together we take care of the final payment and the charter contract and then – welcome on board!

Most of our daytrips go to our caribbean neighbour island Formentera to enjoy also lunch there on the beach. Of course you will have one or two swimming stops before to enjoy the amazing turquoise waters. Arrived to Formentera you will be picked up from your boat from the restaurants water taxi and driven to the beach – and of course brought back to your boat after your lunch.

Back on board, most of the groups go for more swimming stops with snorkeling and cave diving, some music and drinks on board makes it all just perfect. The exact route is best discussed with the captain on your charter day, also depending on wind and waves.

Back in the port we will wait for you for check-out and take care of the fuel payment.

Even if towels and drinks are always included, we advise everyone to bring also their own towels and especially drinks. Sunglasses and cream as well as a charger for your phone and USB cable to connect the music should definately not be missing! And of course, everything else what could make your charter day perfect (GoPro, inflatebels, snacks..). Oh and of course the rest payment for the boat and fuel (credit card or cash).

The fuel is calculated according to the engine hours driven on the day. For a normal daytrip to Formentera and back we usually count with about 1,5 hours of fuel. Those who drive also to Cala Saona need about 2 hours of fuel. We will always give you an estimate of the fuel consumption on each boat, but in the end of the day it always depends where exactly you have been and and the trip is calculated accordingly.

It’s like in a restaurant. It’s up to you, but actually yes. When you have felt comfortable and satisfied with the service and the day, it is absolutely normal to tip to the captain/crew accordingly. The amount varies here, most guests leave about 5-10% from the charter price as a tip.

The deposit payed will not be retured for short term cancellations. The boats are reserved only for you. We can always try to postpone the charter for early changes.

First of all we have to define what bad weather is: heavy rain, waves higher than 1,5m, thunderstorm. Just because the sun may be not shining when you check in, doesn’t mean “bad weather”.

In case of really bad weather like stated above, your charter will be postponed. If that is not possible, the deposit payment will of course be returned. We often see this the day before and act accordingly.

But of course! We welcome many families on board our ships and yachts. Please state the number and age of the little ones the day before to ensure the childrens life jackets will be prepared.

That always depends a little bit on the yacht. Smaller motor yachts can usually also be booked on a daily basis for weekend trips for example. Yachts from 60ft+ and Superyachts are predominantly booked and occupied for weekly charters. Contact us at any time with different travel dates and we send you available options.

Catamarans and sailing ships are normally only booked from Saturday to Saturday.

APA means “Advanced Provisioning Allowance” and is a deposit for costs on board. This usually includes fuel, grocery, port fees – and everything you may book on extras on board through us or the crew (massage, additional water toys etc.).

The APA is always 30% of the net charter fee, is paid with the last charter payment and is not subject to extra tax. The captain is obliged to keep all the receipts of the expenses in order to be able to give you an overview of the used APA at any time. There is usually something left at the end of the charter, the balance will of course be returned to you.

In case of superyachts, fuel is usally calculated based on the nautical miles traveled and billed to the APA. The captain can give you an overview of the current fuel consumption on board at any time.

With weekly bookings you can of course enjoy the whole Balearic Islands. Most of our yachts are also go to Mallorca or stay on anchor in quiet bays around Formentera. The exact route is best discussed with the captain who has the exact data on the weather to get the most out of your week!
