Standing plans
Most clients start with a single charter. Those who spend real time on the water usually move to a standing plan, because the good boats and the good berths are gone by spring.
One charter, seen to properly.
For a family taking a week or two in a season. You get the same office and the same standard of preparation as everyone else — we simply work charter by charter.
The summer held open for you.
For principals who take several weeks between May and September. We hold options across the water you use, keep berths in the marinas that matter, and plan the season in January rather than June.
Both seasons, and the boat you may end up buying.
For families who live on the water most of the year, or who are moving from chartering to ownership. Summer in the Mediterranean, winter in the Caribbean, one office across both, and honest counsel when a purchase starts to make sense.
Reasonable questions
If yours is not here, write and ask. We would rather answer it now than have you find out in August.
We take on new clients slowly, mostly by word of mouth. There is a conversation — we ask how you like to be on the water and who you travel with, and then we say whether we are the right office for it.
Time and holding power — the options, the berths and the planning we do before you have committed to anything. It is credited against charter fees within the same season.
Sometimes, and we disclose it in writing before you sign. Where a yacht pays us, you will know the figure.
For a July week in the Cyclades or the Balearics, by January. Shoulder months and last-minute weeks are often possible with a fortnight's notice.
