Book Your Extras Before Your Charter

Want your hands free to enjoy your vacation? Why not hire a skipper or a chef? Have your skipper do all the sailing, or pitch in as much as you like. The choice is yours. Discover all your destination’s “hidden gems” with a licensed professional as your guide. For added luxury, hire a chef so you can sample the local cuisine. All you need to do is make sure skippers and chefs get their own cabin on your yacht. Contact a Vacation Planner to request a skipper or chef.

We offer a selection of extras for water sports lovers and adrenaline junkies. Choose from standup paddleboards, snorkelling gear, and sea kayaks in selected destinations worldwide. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced paddler, our water toys are great fun for everyone. Add these extras to your charter and we will secure your toys aboard the yacht before you arrive. Give us a call for water toy rentals.

Make your sailing holiday even more hassle free and let us do the shopping for you. Choose from our a-la-carte or one of our food and beverage provisioning packages before you arrive and we’ll make sure your yacht is full of all the supplies you need. Our online stores offers a vast selection of essential single items in addition to a range of convenient food and beverage packages. Relax with a drink in hand before you set sail. For BVI yacht charters, we offer a single-item stock list as well as a Charter Starter package. Our new online store will offermeal packages made with local ingredients from popular Island chefs. Coming soon!

Purchase extra security with our Yacht Damage Waiver. This extra option covers accidental damage or loss and reduces the amount you’ll need to pay for your security deposit. In case of loss or damage to the yacht and its equipment, such as the outboard engine or dinghy, you will be offered a replacement while on charter. Choose from two coverage options.
