Lagoon 46

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. For damage it doesn't cover, your liability is usually limited to the security deposit, except where the operator's terms say otherwise. You can lower the deposit by adding the operator’s damage waiver. Operator terms: The owner insures the yacht and equipment against fire, marine and collision risks, third party damage, and loss or damage above an excess amount (left blank in the text).

Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. Estimated from engine power: this boat's ~114 HP engines burn roughly 9.1 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 191 L ≈ €372 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.

Not if you add a skipper — this boat offers one, who holds the licence. Generally, though: 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.

The boat is for private pleasure only. You can't use it for racing, towing other craft (except in an emergency), or subletting without written consent. You also can't take on anyone who isn't on the crew list.

You must stay within Greek seas. We also ask you to reach your farthest port within the first third of the charter and to be within 40 nautical miles of the return base two days before the end.

You shouldn't leave port or anchorage if the wind is or is forecast to be above Beaufort 6, or if the harbour authorities ban sailing. Use your judgement too: if conditions or the boat's state make safety doubtful, stay put.

Your group must include at least one qualified skipper and one experienced crew member. We may ask you to show your handling and navigation skills on a short sail with us aboard. If that goes badly, we can add a seaman at your cost or end the charter.

Up to 10 people at sea, all listed on the crew/passenger manifest. Please return the boat cleaned-up and in the same condition as you received it. A EUR 320 end cleaning charge applies.

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