Hire a skipper

If you don’t have a license, this does not mean that a sailboat or yacht charter is off limits. You only need a skipper, a person who will sail the sailboat or drive the motor boat instead of you. If you don’t know one, you can simply hire one.

The prices for hiring a skipper start from 140 € per day, plus food and transport costs. It is not the cheapest option, but if you divide the costs among the crew, it is manageable.

A skipper has all the certificates you don’t have. A skipper is also someone who knows a thing or two about sailing, the weather and finding a safe harbour in the evening.

He helps you select the route and if necessary, adjust it according to the weather. A good skipper is someone who can give you a lot of sailing knowledge and transform you and your family or friends into a crew that helps him with better, faster and safer management of the sailboat. He provides you with unforgettable lessons, which are an excellent starting point for a sailing course. When renting a sailboat, catamaran or yacht with a skipper we suggest a skipper who is personality suitable for the crew that hired him. The skipper is also responsible for the safety of the crew and the vessel, thus his instructions have to be respected.
