The High, Mid and Low season rates quoted for each yacht apply to all charters commencing in the indicated months as follows:
In addition to the charter fee a security deposit must be arranged. This is to cover losses, damage, breakages and fuel used (if not replaced), and is not to be confused with the booking deposit, which is paid at the time of booking to confirm and secure the booking.
The rates are the same regardless of the length of the charter and are:
| yachts of 36ft and over | £1,000 per charter |
| yachts under 36ft : | £750 per charter |
Note: the security deposit will be increased by 50% if you propose to go to:-
The Security Deposit will not usually be deposited but will be taken on a Credit Card slip or cheque and held without processing the card or depositing the cheque unless required by circumstances e.g. damage, accident or loss caused by, or attributable to, the charterer or any member of the crew of the yacht, to the yacht itself or to any other yacht, vessel or property, either directly or indirectly
The yachts may be inspected by a diver after charter to protect ourselves against the risk of undeclared underwater damage. We do expect charterers to be honest if they have run aground! With all the Navigational aids with which the yachts are equipped there is really no excuse for hitting the bottom.
All losses, breakages and failure or malfunction of equipment or systems on board should be reported in writing on your return after charter, and if of a serious nature should be notified earlier, to allow for replacements to be obtained or repairs instructed. We do appreciate your co-operation in this regard.
At the beginning of each charter, the yacht is supplied in a clean and tidy condition with all equipment functioning and the fuel and water tanks and gas bottle full.
At the end of the charter, the charterer is responsible for removing all personal possessions and rubbish, restoring equipment to the position in which it was at the commencement of the charter, refilling the fuel and water tanks at his expense, and leaving the yacht in a clean and tidy condition.
| Refueling: | £50.00 | in addition to the cost of the fuel, will be charged to cover the cost of moving the yacht to and from the fuelling berth where the charterer fails to refuel the yacht without good reason. |
These may be charged if, without good reason, the yacht is returned late or handed over or returned at a time other than normal.
A similar fee will be charged if the yacht is returned by the charterer in a condition, which requires extra cleaning.
