From the first idea to the first morning at anchor: how a week aboard comes together for friends, family or a team.
Start with the map. Turquoise Croatian coves, Cycladic harbours, Caribbean trade winds: pick the corner of the world you want to wake up in.
The original. Split to Hvar, a thousand islands deep.
Cyclades wind, whitewashed harbours, ouzo at dusk.
Emerald Sardinia and the Costa Smeralda glamour.
Line-of-sight sailing in the Caribbean's playground.
Limestone karsts and longtail sunsets in the Andaman Sea.
Fjord-like bays beneath black mountains.
Three kinds of boat, one easy choice. Compare them side by side (same specs, same order) so you can weigh space against sailing feel at a glance.
CatamaranTwo hulls mean level decks, huge lounging space and shallow anchorages. The effortless crowd-pleaser.
Best for first-timers, families and big mixed crews.

€100 deposit
Book any yacht and week with a fixed €100 deposit, paid on Stripe's secure checkout. We hold the week for about 30 minutes while you pay, and you can cancel free of charge for 48 hours after.
Stripe emails the invoice for the balance when your 48-hour window closes, due 7 days later (splitting the cost, each person gets their own, all sent to the lead guest to forward). Once the balance is paid you're done: nothing more to think about until the marina.
The three instalments are 10%, 30% and 60% of the yacht's price, with your €100 deposit taken off the first. Choose them before checkout. They are offered when your week departs far enough ahead for these dates to fall in order. Stripe emails the first instalment's invoice when the window closes, and each later one 30 days before it is due. Splitting the cost? Each person pays 10%, 30% and 60% of their part of the price on their own invoices, which Stripe emails to the lead guest to forward.
Payments run on Stripe: you pay the deposit on Stripe's secure checkout, and Stripe emails each balance invoice and its reminders. We never see or store your card details.
Friends, family or colleagues: share one link, fill the cabins and start planning where to eat.
A yacht is only as good as the crew aboard. Round up your people, fill the cabins, and let everyone have a say on the route. One link is all it takes to get the group chat buzzing.
The price you see is for the whole yacht for the week, with a per-person guide. A handful of shared extras get settled on the ground. Here's exactly what to budget, in honest ranges rather than fine print.
What groups ask before their first week aboard.
Your yacht for seven nights, a professional skipper on most yachts, standard equipment and safety gear, bedding and towels, a dinghy with outboard, and a full welcome brief with route guidance. Food, drinks and a few shared running costs are settled separately (see the extras above).
Plan for a cash kitty of roughly €150–€300 per person that covers mooring, fuel and water, a refundable security deposit of €1,500–€8,000 per boat held at the marina against damage, plus smaller shared costs like ice (€165–€330) and water taxis (€40–€90). Everything is settled as a crew, per boat.
The lead guest books the week online with a fixed €100 deposit on Stripe's secure checkout, refunded in full if you cancel within 48 hours. When that window closes, Stripe emails the invoices for the balance: in full, or the first of three instalments (10%, 30% and 60% of the price, with the deposit taken off the lead guest's first) if you chose that before checkout, with each later instalment invoiced 30 days before it is due. Splitting the cost? Before checkout, choose how many of you are paying: each person can then pay their own invoice for their share, which Stripe emails to the lead guest to forward. The lead guest stays responsible for the whole price, so any share left unpaid is theirs to settle.
Yes. Every guest on board must be at least 18 years old on the first day of the charter week, and we check each guest's ID at check-in. There's no upper limit.
A valid passport or national ID for every guest. If you're chartering bareboat you'll also need a recognised sailing licence and short CV for the named skipper. Book with a professional skipper and no sailing qualification is required from anyone in your crew.
Check-in is from 4pm on the Saturday your week begins. Arrive rested: you'll meet your skipper, stow your bags, run through the safety brief and can spend the first night in the marina before setting off the next morning.
You'll return to the base marina on the final Friday evening and check out by 8am the following Saturday, so the yacht is ready for the next crew. Late flights? We'll happily point you to somewhere to store bags and grab breakfast.
Not sure which yacht, which week, or which crew size fits? A real human who has sailed these waters will help you get it right. No pressure, no scripts.
