When you charter a boat without a licence there are three options. What changes is who does what on board, and the price. Here is how to choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skipper only<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The skipper sails the boat, chooses the anchorages and takes care of mooring and safety. Cooking and tidying are up to you. It costs about \u20ac200 per day<\/strong> plus food and is the most common option on 12 to 14-metre catamarans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skipper and hostess<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The hostess prepares breakfasts and simple meals, does the shopping and keeps the boat tidy. It is the ideal option for families and groups who want a real holiday. A hostess costs about \u20ac180\u2013190 per day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full crew<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On luxury yachts and catamarans the crew is part of the boat: captain, chef or hostess and often a deckhand. The service is hotel-level, with bespoke menus and cabins made up every day. The crew is either included in the rate or listed separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
