Yacht Charter: How Much Does it Cost? All Rental Costs Explained

Mooring a yacht

How much it costs to rent a yacht isn’t always a very clear cut answer. There are numerous ways to charter a yacht and different factors can significantly increase or lower the cost of a yacht rental.

Here are the main costs to consider to estimate the total yacht rental price of your next yacht charter.

Yacht Rental Costs in a Nutshell

To calculate the price of a yacht charter, you need to sum the base fee of the yacht charter (the price you see displayed on websites), taxes (varies depending on destination), APA , crew gratuity and insurance cost . 

Depending on the details of your yacht charter, you will need to add between 30% and 100% on top of the base fee to have the total cost of your rental.

Here is an idea of the ranges you can expect for the yacht charter base fees :

  • Motor Yachts – Sailing Yachts under 50ft: €4 000 – €15 000 / week
  • Motor Yacht – Sailing Yachts between 50ft and 65ft: €15 000 – €40 000 / week
  • Motor Yachts – Sailing Yachts between 65ft and 80ft: €40 000 – €70 000 / week
  • Motor Yachts – Sailing Yachts between 80ft and 100ft: €70 000 – €100 000 / week
  • Motor Yachts – Sailing Yachts over 100ft: €100 000 – up to 1,000,000 / week

How is the total price of a yacht rental calculated?

There are two main categories of yacht charters: all-inclusive or separated charges. 

The all-inclusive yacht rentals option (rare)

The all-inclusive option isn’t very common in yacht charters, and tends to be for smaller yachts and cruise where it’s easier to package a standardized offer.

As the name implies, all-inclusive yacht charter offers a price that includes everything: fuel, food, beverages, and entertainment (diving and fishing equipment).

The “usual” option: base charter rates and separated variable charges to add on top

In most yachting websites, the price of a yacht charter only refers to the  base price  of a boat at its lowest possible charter time.

It doesn’t include many variable costs such as food and beverage, fuel, taxes, insurance and so on.

To understand the total cost of chartering a yacht when it’s not all-inclusive (which is almost always the case), it’s therefore important to split the costs that are included in the base rate of the yacht (the price you’ll see displayed on a website) from the costs that are not included in that base rate , that you will therefore need to add yourself if you want a precise estimation.

Don’t worry, the math isn’t rocket science.

The formula goes like this:

Total yacht charter price = Base charter fee + APA + Taxes + Insurance

We’ll detail each costs in the following paragraphs.

The base charter fee of a yacht rental: Costs and factors included in the calculation

The base charter fee of the yacht rental is essential in calculating the total cost of your charter. Most variable costs are calculated as a percentage of that base fee and are simply summed up together along with the base fee to get the total cost.

Here is what you should know about the base charter fee.

The base charter fee follows a simple rule: the longer the yacht, the higher the charter cost

The boat’s size affects the base charter fee considerably. It determines the number of cabins and guest capacity , the number of staff on board, along with a lot of amenities that tend to get more spacious and more luxurious the longer the yacht gets. 

Everything that comes with the yacht (including the staff!) is included in the base charter fee.

The more reputable and in-demand the yacht is, the higher the base fee gets

A yacht reputation and popularity can also affect the base fee, even for boats within the same size range.

Boats are by definition limited in stock and follow supply and demand laws . When a particular yacht is in high demand, whether it’s thanks to its reputation, its features, the season or its recent appearance in a movie, series or TV shows the price of the charter can shoot up.

For instance, chartering a yacht featured in a James Bond movie such as  luxury yacht Regina  won’t cost the same as a regular model. Likewise for most yachts that are a part of the popular Below Deck TV show .

It can also be true for some classic yachts that had famous builders or previous celebrity owners.

The season does influence the yacht rental prices at the base fee level

Your yacht charter base fee depends to some extent on your date of departure. 

If you take your vacation during the busiest weeks of the year (high season) of a destination, you’ll pay a higher base price than someone who charters a yacht on low season dates.

In the Mediterranean, the high season is in summer while it’s in winter for the Caribbean. The yacht charter base fees will be at their highest during these months. 

Sometimes just a week or two can make a big difference to the price. Chartering a yacht in shoulder seasons can be a good idea when you are looking for good deals.

Likewise, since some destinations have very short seasons , it has increased demands and makes it more expensive.

International events will also increase the cost of a yacht charter. Expect to pay more if you want to attend the Monte-Carlo Masters (April), the Cannes Film Festival (May), or the Monaco Grand Prix (May) during your yachting vacations in the Mediterranean.

The destination you pick can affect the base charter fee of your yacht rental

Your vacation destination is an essential factor in the yacht charter charge that is included in the base fee. 

As the supply and demand law dictates, the more competition there is, the less you have to spend. It is why locations with large charter fleets are less expensive.

The Bahamas, BVI and the Mediterranean are for example more affordable than remote islands without established yachting industries.

yacht destination

The water toys are usually included in your base yacht charter fee and influence its amount

On a yacht, water toys don’t refer to your average backyard inflatable unicorns. Think instead of big equipment for marine activities: jet skis, kite-surf, kayaks, paddleboards, submarines, and expensive high-powered yacht tenders.

Some vessels come with sea pools or a giant slide to glide from the top of the boat straight into the ocean.

Most of these items, especially when they are in high numbers, can come at a cost that will be on the bottom line of your yacht charter invoice.

All the water toys specified in the yacht brochure when you make the reservation are generally included in the base fee . But it’s up to you if you want to rent others or even buy them. Make sure you ask your broker for advice about the cost of these extra if your budget is limited.

Yacht water toys

The base fee of your yacht charter is fixed and proportional to its duration

Most yacht charter companies only work ‘per week,’ and yacht owners rarely accept a shorter duration. Many companies have minimum stays of ten days, however some boats accept day charter or short periods, you can always ask your broker for an appropriate selection.

You can rent a vessel for two weeks or more, but the price won’t go down for longer holidays.

Yacht rental costs that are NOT included in yacht charter base fee

Now that we’ve seen what is usually included in the charter base fee, let’s find more about all these costs that you’ll have to add to the base fee to estimate your total yacht rental cost.

APA: the main variable cost of your yacht charter (add 20%-40% to your base fee)

The charter fee usually covers the cost of renting the yacht and the crew’s salary. But you still need to pay for fuel, provisions, and other extras for your trip. 

A fee covers all these additional costs : APA or Advanced Provisioning Allowance.  Find out more about the APA here.

APA is the standard system to pay your expenses on a luxury yacht charter, and it is generally a percentage of the charter fee. You’ll usually end up paying between 20% and 40% more than the base cost of the yacht charter in APA.

The amount varies a lot, depending on the ship and your activities. It will increase if the yacht has a higher fuel consumption, if you plan on cruising more than 4 hours a day, if you want to have onboard particular expensive brands, etc.

What does the APA cover?

APA covers all the day-to-day operating expenses. It also includes any special requests you might have while you’re on board. 

Here are the main costs of your yacht rental the APA covers: 

Food and drink

On your yacht charter, the chef can prepare all the dishes you want, whether you are vegan or low carb, whether you have allergies or require kosher meals. Make sure that you explain your food preferences to your broker.

Fuel Charges

Your fuel costs will depend on your boat, your itinerary, and whether you choose to cruise or stay at anchor. A sailing yacht charter can cost 10% less than a motor yacht charter because the fuel consumption is smaller.

This amount also includes the fuel expenditure of any water toys and tenders you use during your charter.

Harbor fees and dockage

The harbor fees and dockage will be more or less high-priced depending on your destination and season. All these costs will be included in your APA.

yacht Harbor

Communications Costs

For most people, yachting is about enjoying life outside of the daily routine. If you can’t survive without the Internet or satellite communications, you don’t have to worry. Your yacht charter will provide you all the digital connections needed. They won’t add much to the APA, but it’s still something that comes at a price.

Delivery fee

If you board or disembark the ship outside its usual harbor, you’ll have to pay a transportation fee to cover the fuel required to get your yacht to your requested destination.

Interiors and Laundry

The APA fee includes interiors and laundry costs to keep the yacht immaculate. But if you request unique decoration, it may add an extra charge.

Personal laundry services may not be covered depending on the yacht.

Taxes: a cost that varies a lot from country to country (add between 0% and 35% on top of base charter fee)

Taxes do have an impact on the total cost of your yacht charter, especially in some destinations.

For example, in Europe, chartering a commercial vessel is subject to VAT . But fees vary significantly according to your destination and itinerary. Some countries have a 0-tax rate (Montenegro, New England), while in others a passage in the international waters can lower the VAT rate.

The taxes can vary from VAT, national parks entrance (la Maddalena in Sardinia for example), countries taxes etc. the VAT and taxes will be based on the charter fee, so make sure you discuss this with your advisor to anticipate the cost.

Here are some VAT rate applied on luxury yacht charter in 2022 :

–  Charter in France  will be at 20 % VAT based on charter fee

–  Charter in Italy  will charge 22 % VAT based on charter fee

–  Charter in Spain  will charge 21 % VAT based on charter fee

–  Charter in Croatia  will charge 13 % VAT based on charter fee

–  Charter in Greece  will charge 24 % VAT based on charter fee with a discount of 60% on charter of more than 48h ending usually at 12% VAT, this is subject to change in 2022.

Moreover some countries such as Spain or Greece charge a licence for a yacht to be able to embark passengers for a paid charter in their waters, this explains why not every yacht can cruise in all countries.

Crew gratuity: a good practice to include in the cost of your yacht charter (add 15-20% to the base charter fee)

The crew on a yacht work even if you don’t notice it. 

Serving, cleaning, preparing, fixing, they are the key elements that make your charter a success. 

Even if tipping is not strictly mandatory, it is common practice to include a tip to the team when you are satisfied by their services. 

The suggested amount is around 15-20% of your base charter rate . It is therefore important to include this amount in your yacht rental price beforehand.

Yacht crew

Yacht charter cancellation insurance: a small cost that can save you a lot (add 15% of your base fee)

Cancelling or shortening a yacht charter can be very expensive if you don’t have cancellation insurance.

It is a small price to pay to ensure that all the money spent on your yacht charter will not go to waste if some unfortunate event leads you to miss your yacht rental.

As a charter company, we will help you select the best insurance options among several different offers.

In most cases, your cancellation insurance will cost around 15% of your charter base fee.

A typical yacht rental total cost isn’t as hard to determine as it seems when you know all the variable costs and your base fee.

Once you have your base charter fee in hands, add the following costs to estimate the final amount you’ll see on your yacht rental invoice:

  • 20% – 40% on top of your base fee for APA (low end for sailing vessels, higher end for motoryachts)
  • 0% – 30% of taxes and VAT on top of your base price. Highly dependant on your destination.
  • 10% – 15% on top of your base fee for crew gratuity
  • 15% on top of your base fee for cancellation insurance

FAQ about cost of yacht charter and APA

Small motoryachts and sailing yachts under 50 ft (15m) can be chartered from 4,000€ to 15,000€ weekly.

Chartering motoryachts and sailing yachts between 50ft and 65ft costs between 15,000€ and 40,000€ weekly.

Between 65ft (20m) and 80ft (24m), you can expect motoryachts and sailing boats charters between 40,000€ and 70,000€ weekly. Between 80ft (24m) and 100ft (30m), the cost of chartering a yacht ranges between 70,000€ and 100,000€ weekly.

For yachts over 100ft (30m), the cost of charter ranges between 100,000€ and 1,000,000€ weekly.

APA stands for Advance Provisionning Allowance. You pay this fee in advance to cover food and drinks, fuel charges, harbors fees and dockage, communication, delivery fee various fees such as cleaning or interior design.

Advance Provisionning Allowance varies depending on your travel plans. Usually, it represents a surcharge of 20% to 40% on top of the yacht charter base price.

The APA is due one month before you set sail when dispensing your final charter payment. The captain directly receives the money and will supervise all the purchases made before and during your journey. He will be responsible for ensuring the crew stays within budget and will provide receipts upon request.

APA estimations are usually accurate. The captain will keep you updated during your trip. If you decide to go over the initial payment, you can top up the APA in cash or pay the balance during your trip.

With transparent communication, realistic budgets, and advanced provisioning, you may spend less than the APA and have the difference returned to you at the end of the cruise.

Get the base charter fee of your yacht rental, add taxes, APA, crew gratuity and cancellation insurance and you will have a very close estimation of your yacht rental cost everything included.

The base charter rate includes everything that is on a yacht: cabins, amenities, water toys along with the crew. Everything else (fuel, food, taxes…) come at an extra cost.

Crew gratuity is usually comprised between 15% and 20% on top of the base charter fee for most yacht rentals.

For sailboats in tax free areas, you can get away with a total cost of 30% on top of the base rate. In extreme cases (motoryachts in high taxed countries with big tips for the crew and cancelation insurance), you can more than double the base price. Most charters should be in between within the 40-80% on top of base fee range.

How much does it cost to charter a yacht?

There are many things to consider and first time charterers can be left confused, that's why we've created a comprehensive guide to yacht charter prices (with a checklist).

charter cost explained banner

The good news: It’s easy to grasp the basics of yacht charter pricing. And with one of our experts in your corner, we can help you more accurately estimate the cost of your next once-in-a-lifetime vacation.

The cost of a yacht charter is dependent on a number of factors, including the type of yacht, the charter destination, local taxes, and the base cost. (If the yacht has a celebrity owner, well that too, can add to the cost.)

Therefore, yacht charters have a wide range of base prices. That’s why charters can cost from $10,000 per week on smaller sailing yachts and catamarans, up to $150,000+ per week on the most luxurious motor superyachts.

What else can you expect to pay? This overview – a part of our planning resource, the Charter Advice Guide – offers an in-depth look at charter yacht costs.

Yacht Charter Price Structure: “All-Inclusive” vs “Plus Expenses”

In the world of yachting, two types of crewed yacht charters are available to you – “All-Inclusive” and “Plus Expenses” charter experiences. What do these terms mean exactly? Here’s a quick look:

  • All-Inclusive Yacht Charters – Some charters (mainly catamaran and monohull charters in the Virgin Islands) offer all-inclusive rates. That means rates are based on the number of guests, and they include all food and drink, water sports, and fuel costs. Dockage and taxes, though, are usually charged separately.
  • Plus Expenses Charters – Rates for larger motor yachts do not include running expenses, which must be paid separately. For these luxury charters, the base price is for the yacht only. Additional expenses, i.e. food, bar, fuel, dockage, port taxes, and other expenses, are charged separately. Most frequently, the running expenses are paid by an Advance Provisioning Allowance, or APA, which is typically 35% of the base price; this is an amount that’s paid prior to the charter.

Our chart below offers a quick overview of what’s included in both of these types of charters.

Average Yacht Charter Cost: Base Prices

What can you expect to pay for a catamaran, a sailing vessel, or motored yacht? Here’s a quick overview of the average cost to rent a yacht (not including extra expenses) for the most common types available:

Factors that Affect Yacht Charter Prices

Since charter yachts are privately owned, prices are set by the owner. This can explain, in part, the wide range of differences in price between boats of similar lengths. Yet, several other factors can significantly impact price, including:

  • The Yacht – The year the boat was built, the builder, previous owners, and the boat’s selection of water toys can also increase the cost of a yacht. Boats can also develop a reputation, i.e. the largest or most luxurious, or having a famous builder or previous owner. Reputation can also affect pricing.
  • Season – Prices typically increase in the high season – i.e. high summer in the Mediterranean or winter in the Caribbean – and decrease in low seasons.
  • Destination – Your charter destination also plays a role in charter cost. For example, prices increase in areas without large charter fleets (i.e. the Galapagos), whereas Bahamas yacht charters,   BVI charters , or Mediterranean yacht charter are priced more competitively.

Additional Costs Considerations on Yacht Charter

In addition to the cost associated with running the yacht and provisioning, there are a number of other costs that must be considered. These are the most significant:

Advanced Provisioning Allowance

The APA on Plus Expenses charters equals roughly 35% of the yacht’s base price. This is a fee that’s collected prior to charter, and it’s similar to an expense account the captain can access during the charter. At the end of the charter, you will receive a detailed accounting of your APA account, plus any unused APA funds in cash.

In the case of overages, you may be required to replenish the APA account during the charter. This can be done with cash, although many choose to set up accounts with their charter brokers , which can be accessed if requested by the captain.

Taxes and Value Added Tax (VAT)

Most boats – whether all-inclusive or Plus Expenses – will not include local taxes or a Value Added Tax into their charter rate. The charterer will be responsible for paying those taxes. Taxes range significantly by destination; here’s a look at some of yachting’s most popular destinations:

  • The Bahamas – Tax: 4% plus 10% VAT
  • BVI – Tax: between $6 and $16 per person per day, depending on the flag of the boat
  • Croatia – VAT: 13%
  • Florida – Tax: 6% for Broward County, 7% for Miami-Dade County
  • France – VAT: 20%, however, 10% can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
  • Greece – VAT: 12%
  • Italy – VAT: 22%, however 6.6% (over 24m) and 8.8% (under 24m) can be applied when an itinerary includes International Waters
  • Montenegro – NO VAT
  • New England – NO TAX
  • Spain – VAT: 21%
  • Turkey – NO VAT

Charterers can purchase cancellation and curtailment insurance – which is similar to traveler’s insurance. This insurance can help cover costs if a charterer must cancel or shorten the charter. Charter brokers can help you weigh insurance options, and often offer several different options.

Crew Gratuity

While crew gratuity is certainly not mandatory, it is recommended, particularly if you were truly impressed with your charter experience. In general, crew gratuity is roughly 15-20% of the base charter rate, which is handed to the captain at the conclusion of your charter.

Delivery Fees

While these fees do not apply on most charters, you may be asked to pay delivery costs if you are not chartering in the yacht’s normal cruising ground. In most cases, you will only be required to cover the fuel for the trip.

What affects charter yacht prices?

There are several things that influence how much your yacht charter will cost. The type of vessel, charter destination, length of trip, base cost, time of year, and local taxes all make a difference.

How much does it cost for a crewed vessel?

Charter yacht prices do increase when hiring a crew along with the boat. At Worldwide Boat, we offer two types of crewed charter experiences: all-inclusive and plus expenses. An all-inclusive charter yacht includes accommodation for all guests, food and drink, water sport activities, and fuel costs – dockage fees and taxes are charged separately.

Things like food, drinks, fuel, dockages, taxes, and other expenses are charged separately and are usually estimated to be about 35% of the base price.

What’s included in all-inclusive boat charters?

At Worldwide Boat, your all-inclusive charter experience includes a diligent and friendly crew, water toys, food, drinks, fuel, water and electric services, and occasionally diving experiences.

What are some additional charter boat costs to consider?

After finding a base price you’re comfortable with and evaluating your package, you’ll also want to consider delivery fees, crew gratuity, insurance fees, taxes, and Advanced Provisioning Allowance rates. If you are responsible for these fees, your crew will handle the necessary transactions on your behalf.

What does it cost to rent a 100- foot yacht charter?

This depends on what type of vessel you’re looking at and how long you’ll need it for. The average weekly cost of a 100-foot sailing yacht is between $50,000-100,000. A weekly 80-foot catamaran charter runs around $40,000-100,000, and a week-long 100-foot motor yacht rental is anywhere between $50,000-80,000.

Does the price to rent a yacht change depending on what type of boat it is?

Yes. Worldwide Boat offers sailing yachts, catamarans, and motor yachts. All of these vessels have different capabilities, but there are other factors that determine the price beyond what type of boat you choose. The year the boat was built, owner, availability of water toys, onboard amenities, and the ship’s reputation can all change how much the ship is priced at.

When is the high season for yacht charters?

The price of a yacht fluctuates depending on the season. A Mediterranean yacht charter cost rises in the summer and drops in the winter, whereas Caribbean boat charter prices are high during the winter and lower in the summer months.

How does my destination affect charter yacht cost?

The more remote an area is, the more expensive it will be to charter a yacht there. That’s because prices go up in areas that have fewer boats. If you were to travel somewhere like the Galapagos, which isn’t a typical yacht destination, you’d pay more than you would if you were traveling to the Caribbean.

How much do I tip the crew when reviewing my yacht charter expenses?

It’s not required that you tip your crew, but it is recommended and appreciated. If you had an enjoyable experience it’s considered polite to tip your crew anywhere from 15-20% at the end of your charter.

How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Yacht? Day, Week, and Party Rate

When most people think of a yacht, they think of an expensive, luxurious boat. Is it really expensive to rent a yacht? How much does it cost to rent a yacht?

To rent or charter a yacht that is less than 80 feet long, it will cost you around $15,000 to $35,000 per week. Bigger yachts measuring 80 to 120 feet will cost you from $35,000 to $80,000 a week.

Catamarans are more expensive to rent. One week in an 80-foot long catamaran will cost you $40,000 to $100,000. Also, the cost of chartering a yacht will depend on whether you are renting a bareboat yacht charter or a crewed yacht charter.

Read on to know all the details in chartering a yacht for your customized dream vacation.

How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Yacht?

To rent a yacht that is less than 80 feet long, it will cost you around $15,000 to $35,000 per week. Yachts that measure about 80 to 120 feet will cost you from $35,000 to $80,000 a week.

The cost of renting a yacht depends on several factors. One of these factors is the size of the boat that you want to rent. Another factor is whether you want to skipper the boat or if the owner prefers it to be operated by his professional crew.

Obviously, if you act as the captain of the boat, you won’t be paying for the services of a hired captain. That will save you some money. One person can operate smaller yachts and possibly two or three crew members.

If you want to charter a bigger yacht like a 100-footer, then, for safety reasons, you have to choose a crewed or skippered yacht. These boats have to be professionally run by a legitimate captain and a professional crew of three or more.

For actual costing, below 80 feet motor yachts can be chartered from $15,000 to $35,000 per week. Yachts that measure 80 feet long are tagged from $35,000 to $80,000. You can rent 80-foot catamarans at $40,000 to $100,000.

Some megayachts can be chartered, too. The super-rich can rent these super luxurious and spacious yachts at $200,000 to $1M per week. However, these prices do not include fuel, food, and beverages.

How Much Does I t Cost to Charter a Bareboat Yacht?

A bareboat yacht charter is where you don’t use a professional boat captain and crew services. That means you are the one who will provide for the skippering and crew services. If you know how to drive a boat and you have a company of a few friends or family, you can drive and operate the boat toward your destinations. So, how much does it cost to charter a yacht this way?

The prices of bareboat charter sailing vary and depend on the size of the boat. For one week, prices for smaller boats measuring 30 to 60 feet long can range from $1,000 to $10,000 a week. Bigger boats that can accommodate 8 to 12 guests are more expensive.

A bareboat yacht that you can charter for a day is the Ocean Romance. One day in this 70-foot yacht will cost you $1,600. So, if you want to know the costs of yacht rental for a day, this is it. And if you’re going to book it for a week, it will cost you around $11,200.

Ocean Romance can accommodate 9 to 10 guests. It has four staterooms with ensuite master and ensuite VIP, with full heads and showers. This yacht has a huge open floor plan, making it very suitable for large groups. You can get more details  here .

How Much Does It Cost to Charter a Skippered Yacht?

how much does it cost to charter a yacht

If you plan to give an extra-special cruise treat to a larger group of people, say from 10 to 15, the best choice is to rent a big yacht. Your best option is to charter a crewed or skippered yacht. The sizes of these kinds of yachts may range from 40 to 400 feet.

The lowest charter cost can run $15,000 for a week’s cruise in Alaska on a monohull that is 50 feet long for six guests. A medium charter may cost around $35,000 for a week’s cruise in the Caribbean on a power yacht 110 feet long for six guests. The maximum charter costs about $450,000 for a week’s cruise in the Mediterranean on a superyacht 300 feet long for 20 guests.

Freddy Yacht

The Freddy is a crewed motor yacht with an overall length of 109 feet and 4 inches (32.2 m). It is a luxurious yacht that can accommodate 10 guests. It is perfect for family charters to explore the Bahamas.

This power yacht has five cabins (four double and one twin), an open-plan space ideal for relaxing and socializing, wide lounge and dining areas, and lots of water toys to enjoy. One week in this luxurious setting costs $42,000. You can get more details  here .

Whispers II

Another crewed yacht that can give you unforgettable memories is Whispers II. It has an overall length of 56 feet.

How Much Does It Cost To Rent A Yacht (Make Sure You Know It!)

If you’re wondering how much it costs to rent a yacht, then you’re in the right spot. So how much does it cost to rent a yacht? Well, you won’t find that out on just any site because the costs of renting a yacht vary widely depending on the make and model of the boat, the season, and the location.

If you’re wondering how much it costs to rent a yacht, then read on to find out!

How Much Does It Cost To Rent A Yacht

Here’s The Answer To How Much Does It Cost to Rent A Yacht

Renting a yacht might sound expensive, but compared to other recreational options, it’s actually not as expensive as you think. According to one rental company, the average yacht rental costs $1,200 per day.

The length of time you rent the yacht for, the type of boat, and the reputation of the company renting it are the most significant factors in how much it will cost.

Budget-Friendly Costs For Rental Yachts

What Are The Budget-Friendly Costs For Rental Yachts

If you’re looking to rent a yacht for a day or two and don’t want to break the bank, some budget-friendly options are available. For example, one of the charter companies offers a three-day rental plan that costs $750 per person.

Depending on the make and model of your yacht, you might also be able to find deals through private or public charter services.

Boating License And the Cost of Rental Yacht

There is a common misconception that having a boating license will affect the cost of renting a yacht. Technically, no; the license has no bearing on the charter rate. However, there are some instances in which having a license may actually help lower the charter’s cost.

For example, charter companies often offer lower rates during the low season. Additionally, those who are licensed may be eligible for inclusive charters, which offer a lower cost than those that are not.

Main Factors Affecting The Cost of Rental Yachts

Main Factors Affecting The Cost of Rental Yachts

The base cost of renting a yacht typically includes the charter fee, port fees, and crew gratuity. Additional costs may be incurred for items such as fuel, food, and beverages. VAT (value-added tax) is also typically charged on yacht charters and can vary depending on the location. 

Perhaps the most important amenity to consider is the type of water sports toys and equipment that are available onboard. For example, if you’re looking to enjoy some diving or fishing, you’ll need a boat with the proper gear. Additional amenities, such as a Jacuzzi or a music system, can also add to the cost.

Some yachts even come equipped with a Grill station, allowing you to cook up a meal while out on the open water. Ultimately, the amenities you choose will significantly impact the final price.

The most significant of these is the season. In the summer months, demand is high, and prices are correspondingly higher. In April and July, costs are typically lower as demand is lower.

Type Of Yacht

The type of yacht is another critical factor. Motor yachts are generally more expensive to charter than sailing yachts. Catamarans are also more expensive to charter than monohulls. This is because they are larger and require more crew.

For example, a superyacht can cost tens of thousands of dollars per day to charter, while a smaller yacht might only cost a few thousand dollars. This is due to the fact that a superyacht is much larger and has more amenities than a smaller yacht. It also requires a larger crew to operate, which increases the cost. 

Similarly, a catamaran costs more to charter than a monohull sailing yacht. This is due to the increased size and amenities of the catamaran. 

It is essential to consider the type of yacht when chartering, as it will affect the cost. If you are looking for luxury and comfort, then a superyacht or catamaran is the way to go. However, if you are on a budget, then a smaller yacht may be more appropriate.

When it comes to yachting, there are many popular destinations around the world. Some locations, like the Bahamas and the Virgin Islands, are known for their beautiful turquoise waters and stunning beaches. Like Greece and Spain, other locations are famous for their historic architecture and picturesque landscapes.

No matter where you choose to sail, one thing is for sure: the cost of rental yachts varies significantly from one destination to the next. Here are a few examples:

In the Bahamas , you can expect to pay around $500 per day for a bareboat charter. If you want a yacht with a captain and crew, the price jumps to approximately $1,500 per day.

In Florida , the cost of renting a yacht ranges from $1,000 to $3,000 per day, depending on the size and amenities of the boat.

In Greece , the average cost of a bareboat charter is around $2,500 per day. If you want a yacht with a captain and crew, the price jumps to about $8,000 per day.

In Croatia , the average cost of a bareboat charter is around $1,500 per day. If you want a yacht with a captain and crew, the price jumps to around $4,000 per day.

As you can see, the cost of renting a yacht varies significantly from one destination to the next. So if you’re looking to charter a yacht, be sure to do your research and find the destination that best fits your budget and needs.

Rentals Can Be Expensive:

If you are planning to rent a yacht, make sure that you do your research. Make sure you know how much you will be spending. Make sure you know how much time you will be renting the yacht for. Make sure that you know where you will be parking the yacht.

Getting all these details organized before you start looking will go a long way to making sure you do not blow your budget.

Do Yachts Cost Less To Rent Than Other Boat Types?

Do Yachts Cost Less To Rent Than Other Boat Types

When it comes to boat rentals, no type of vessel is cheaper to rent than a yacht. This is because a yacht offers more features and amenities than any other type of boat, and as a result, it requires more maintenance and crew members. For example, a sailboat does not require a motor, which means that it costs less money to operate.

However, a sailboat does not offer the same level of luxury or comfort as a yacht, and it is not as safe in windy or stormy conditions. Therefore, it is important to consider all of the factors involved when deciding whether to rent a sailboat or a yacht.

Yachts vs. Sailboats (To Rent)

One of the main reasons yachts cost more to rent than sailboats is that they are larger. A yacht typically measures at least 30 feet long, while a sailboat is typically less than 30 feet long. This extra length allows for more amenities, such as a bedroom, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

It also allows for more passengers, which means that the yacht can accommodate a larger group of people. In addition, a yacht is typically equipped with a generator, which allows passengers to use electricity even when the boat is not docked. This is not the case with a sailboat, which relies on the sun and the wind to generate power.

Another reason why yachts cost more to rent than sailboats is that they are more difficult to operate. A yacht requires a captain and a crew to operate it, while a single person can operate a sailboat. This is because a yacht is larger and more complicated than a sailboat, so it requires more people to operate the boat.

How Much Does A Boat Rental Company Value Their Yachts?

Boat rental companies place a high value on their yachts—however, this value changes depending on the time of year. During the high season, a private yacht will be worth more to a rental company than it would be during the low season.

The type of yacht can also affect the base price. For example, a rental company might charge more for a luxury yacht than they would for a basic yacht.

How Long Can You Rent The Yacht For?

How Long Can You Rent The Yacht For

The most common charter is for a day, but you can also charter for a week, a month, or even longer. If you’re not sure how long you want to charter, most companies can work with you to find the best option. 

There are three main types of charters: private, crewed, and classic. Private charters are just that – private. You have the yacht to yourself and can invite whomever you like. Crewed charters have a crew of sailors to take care of everything for you, while classic charters are older boats that offer a more traditional sailing experience. 

The cost of chartering a yacht varies depending on the type and size of the yacht and the duration of your charter. A private, crewed yacht charter for a week in the Mediterranean, for example, can cost anywhere from $3000 to $20,000. However, there are many options available, and the cost of chartering a yacht can be as low as $1,000 per day. 

So, how long can you rent the yacht for? The answer is, it depends. But, with so many options available, there’s sure to be a charter that fits your needs and budget.

Number Of Guests That Can Be Accommodated

It’s important to consider a few things when it comes to figuring out how many guests your rental yacht can accommodate. The first is the size of the yacht itself. The next is the type of yacht. Finally, you also need to consider the amenities that are offered.

Generally speaking, most rental yachts can accommodate between 8 and 12 guests. This is because larger yachts tend to be more expensive, and the extra amenities that come with them can also add to the cost. For example, a yacht with a Jacuzzi or a pool onboard will be able to accommodate fewer guests than one that doesn’t have these features.

That said, there are some exceptions. For example, if you’re looking for a bareboat charter yacht, you’ll be able to find vessels that can accommodate up to 20 guests or more. Bareboat charters are a great option for larger groups, as they allow you to have more control over the boat and the itinerary.

The Rules & Regulations

When chartering a private yacht, you should be aware of a few rules and regulations. The first is the allowance. This is the amount of money you will need to provide to the charter company upfront to cover your costs while on the yacht.

Another rule to be aware of is the breakdown. This is the process by which the charter company will divide up the costs between the charter guests. This is typically done based on the amount of time each person spends on the yacht. So, if you charter a yacht for a week and four people are in your party, each person will be responsible for 1/4 of the total cost.

Finally, be aware of the APA, or Advance Provisioning Allowance. This is the amount of money you will need to provide to the charter company to cover your expenses for the first two weeks of the charter. This includes food, drinks, fuel, and any other expenses. It’s important to budget for this amount, as you will not be able to access it once you’re on the yacht.

It is important to note that the quoted price for a yacht charter is typically based on the number of guests that the yacht can accommodate. If the charter party exceeds the maximum number of guests allowed on the yacht, the charterer may be required to pay an additional guest fee.

Before booking a yacht charter, it is important to consult with the charter company to get an accurate quote for the cost of the charter. By understanding the factors that affect the charter price, the charterer can decide the best time and location to book a yacht charter.

There are several benefits of using an agent when renting a boat. First, an agent can often get you a better price than you would get if you rented directly from the owner. They have access to many boats and can negotiate a better price for you. Second, an agent can help you find the perfect boat for your needs. They know the different boats and their features and can help you find the one that is perfect for you. Third, an agent can help you with the paperwork and make sure everything is done correctly. This can save you time and hassle. Fourth, an agent can help you plan your trip and make sure everything is taken care of. This can save you a lot of time and stress. Overall, using an agent is a great way to rent a boat and get the most out of your trip.

There is not really a huge difference between chartering and hiring a boat for private use. The main difference is that when you hire someone to do something (charter your boat, take you out on the water), they are usually paid directly by you (the charterer). When you charter a boat, the yacht company usually rents it to the charter party and gets their commission from that.

Chartering a yacht for racing purposes is generally not allowed. This is because the yacht has to be registered as a tour boat, which means that it can only be used for racing purposes.

There is no one specific answer to this question since different yachts and charter companies charge different rates for day trips. Generally, however, a yacht rental for a day will range from around $3,000 to $5,000.

Larger yachts can generally rent for up to $30,000 per day.

Renting a yacht for a week is the ultimate way to experience a luxurious vacation. Many may assume this type of experience comes with a hefty price tag. While it can be a significant investment, it is also a unique vacation.

Rent a Yacht for a Week | Basics of Yacht Rental Pricing

To rent a yacht for a week, it’s crucial to grasp basic pricing. The total cost depends on factors like location, yacht size, and the time of year, so consider these key elements.

The size of a yacht will significantly impact the price of a week-long rental. Yachts range from compact vessels accommodating a small group to lavish superyachts that can host large parties. Naturally, larger yachts cost more to rent.

Type of Yacht

The type of yacht influences its price. For example, sailing yacht rental versus a motor yacht rental. Yachts with more luxurious amenities and advanced features generally have higher charter costs. Factors such as the yacht’s age, brand, and overall condition also play a role in determining the price. High-end, modern, and well-maintained yachts typically command a premium.

Charter Location

The location of your yacht charter is another important factor in determining the cost. Popular destinations like the Mediterranean or the Caribbean often have higher rental rates. The allure of these sought-after cruising grounds increases their charter costs.

The season is yet another element that affects pricing. The peak season, which usually falls during summer, commands higher prices. Summer’s ideal weather conditions and increased demand increase the price.

On the other hand, booking a yacht during the offseason can result in more affordable rates. You will still have an enjoyable experience.

Rent a Yacht for a Week | Additional Expenses

Lastly, consider additional expenses not included in the initial rental price. These include fuel costs, provisioning, docking fees, and crew gratuities.

Why Rent a Yacht for a Week?

Choosing a yacht rental for a week offers better value than shorter charters. Week-long charters often provide a more economical option. A full-week charter can keep costs in check while ensuring a more extensive and enjoyable experience.

When you rent a yacht for a week, you have time to enjoy the yacht’s amenities while exploring your destination.

Craving serene seclusion on a pristine island? Want to dine at Michelin-starred restaurants? Or maybe you want to indulge in adventurous activities like scuba diving. A week-long charter gives you ample time to enjoy yourself.

Unlike fixed resorts, a charter yacht adapts to your preferences. You can travel from secluded mornings to lively nightlife hot spots on the same day. Hike to a waterfall in the morning and cruise to a luxurious marina in the evening. It’s all up to you and your desires.

Wander through museums and galleries in the Mediterranean and shop at local markets and designer boutiques in the Caribbean. Moreover, it is also important to have enough time to relax . After all, your vacation is the time to spend enjoying the company of your friends and family.

Can You Rent a Yacht for Less Than a Week?

Absolutely! While a seven-night yacht charter is ideal, many luxury yachts accommodate shorter rentals. However, most have a surcharge for durations less than a week.

Some destinations, like the British Virgin Islands and U.S. Virgin Islands, may offer charters starting from a minimum of three nights. Mediterranean yacht charters typically lean towards week-long experiences.

Keep in mind that opting for shorter charters may mean prioritizing activities. You may have to compromise on certain must-do experiences. So, rent a yacht for a week for the best value and a memorable holiday.

Since 2013, Below Deck has been captivating TV audiences across the globe by offering a voyeuristic peek into life on board multi-million dollar luxury charter yachts . Taking readers behind the scenes, YachtCharterFleet identifies the yachts featured on the show, as well as those which have appeared on the celebrated spin-off series Below Deck: Mediterranean , Below Deck: Sailing , Below Deck: Down Under and the latest iteration, Below Deck: Adventure .

Bravo’s hit reality TV series Below Deck chronicles the lives of crew members who work and reside aboard a luxury yacht during the charter season.

Each season features a different crew configuration, and the episodes show how the crew members interact and deal with personal issues alongside their working lives. The seasons are filmed over six weeks, with every episode featuring a new group of charter guests.

Getting even closer to these Below Deck superstars, we take a look at each of the stand-out features of every yacht that has appeared on the show.

Below Deck (US)

Many crew members are recurring on the show;  the longest-standing is Captain Lee Rosbach, who been on the show since 2013. A fan favourite, he has been at the helm of every yacht on Below Deck and seen a number of different crew formations.

The latest Below Deck season 10 is rumoured to be his final swan song, although his legacy on the show is such that whoever replaces him will have very big shoes to fill.

Among the crew members, Chief Stewardess Kate Chastain was an integral member of the team from season two to season seven. Alongside her, Chef Ben Robinson was a permanent fixture of the crew from season one to season four, before stepping out for season five.

Throughout the course of the show, the yachts have played an important role. 

Hiring a Below Deck yacht will cost from €140,000 per week - and that price doesn't include expenses such as fuel. While some of the yachts were given an alias over the course of filming, their real names can now be revealed below; as well as the exact cost to rent them.

The largest yacht in the show's history, the 10th and 11th seasons of Below Deck  are set around the Caribbean islands of St Lucia  and Grenada onboard the luxurious 60m (197ft) superyacht ST DAVID . Delivered in 2008 by Italian shipyard Benetti, the yacht has an impressive sleek, supercar-inspired profile that instantly turns heads. 

Onboard highlights include her well-appointed sundeck with sunloungers and sunpads where guests can kick back and relax, a spa pool and her al fresco cinema screen set up for unforgettable movie nights.

One of the yacht's most distinctive features is her sophisticated spiral staircase that leads through all three decks and is lit by a skylight in the spa pool of the sun deck. The yacht is very versatile for a variety of charter party configurations, with room for 12 guests across six elegantly appointed cabins.

STARSHIP (aka MY SEANNA)

Below deck charter yacht MY SEANNA

Making an appearance on seasons 9, 8 and 6 of Below Deck , the majestic motor yacht STARSHIP (known on the show as MY SEANNA) is a yacht charter favorite.

The yacht has traveled far and wide for the show cruising to the jaw-droppingly beautiful St Kitts and Nevis in season 9, the sun-kissed Caribbean in season 8 and the  South Pacific  islands of  Tahiti in season 6.

Known for being among one of the most opulent yachts on the charter market due to her ornate interiors and glossy fittings that have been brushed in 22-carat gold, it is safe to say that this yacht is one of the most opulently styled and extensively equipped yachts on the water. Refitted in 2021, the Delta Marine yacht can accommodate 12 guests across 6 cabins and is extremely versatile for a variety of yacht charter party configurations.

VALOR (aka BG)

Appearing three times on the hit show, the 47m (153ft) charter yacht BG (known on the show as VALOR) featured in seasons 7, 5 and 4 of Below Deck , taking charter guests to a variety of sun-kissed and beautiful locations. The yacht's real name is BG, and she was built in 1990 by the world's most revered shipbuilder Feadship . Since then, she has undergone many interiors refreshes to keep her in tip-top condition. 

The yacht traveled around Thailand in Season 7  where the crew and viewers were treated to a truly memorable South East Asian experience. From the iconic Phi Phi Islands to the beautiful beaches of Ko Yao Yai, there were plenty of fascinating landmarks to see on the way. Season 5 took viewers to the tranquil cruising grounds of  Saint Martin whilst season 4 saw M/Y BG in the glistening waters of the  Virgin Islands .

Accomodating 12 guests across 6 cabins, she is also capable of carrying up to 10 crew onboard to ensure a relaxed luxury yacht charter experience.

EROS (aka STAY SALTY)

luxury motor yacht STAY SALTY

Season 3 of Below Deck was announced after a hugely successful second-season finale, which was the highest-rated episode of the series. The new season saw the crew head to the Bahamas onboard  superyacht STAY SALTY  known on the show as EROS. 

She is equipped with an array of luxurious amenities including an eight-person sundeck Jacuzzi, barbecue and yacht-wide sound system. She also boasts timeless interior styling with intricate wood panelling and a neutral colour palette which helps create an inviting atmosphere for those on board.

The yacht was sold in November 2013 - just before filming for season 3 began - for an asking price of $17.9 million.

OHANA (aka STAR DIAMOND)

Premiering in August 2014, season 2 of Below Deck returned with 13 episodes documenting life on board the slightly smaller superyacht STAR DIAMOND in the British Virgin Islands . Among many other features, the yacht is equipped with a large sundeck, outdoor bar and luxury accommodation for 10 guests.

After filming the series, M/Y STAR DIAMOND was sold for an asking price of $10.9 million and is now on the charter market with a charter rate of $160,000/week. Extensively refit in 2022, the work on the superyacht has included a complete interior refresh, the yacht now features light, modern styling - an engine rebuild and a cabin conversion.

HONOR (aka BARENTS )

Superyacht charter yacht BARENTS

The first season of Below Deck premiered on 1 July 2013 after being announced in April 2012. Chartering around the Caribbean , the starring superyacht was named HONOR for the show but chartered under the name CUOR DI LEONE which translates to ‘Lion Heart’ in Italian. She now goes by the name BARENTS . 

Built by Italian shipyard Benetti in 1999 and refit in 2021, the famous vessel has undergone a complete makeover, bringing her up to modern standards. She can accommodate up to 12 charter guests and features luxury amenities for guests to enjoy including state-of-the-art TVs and a sundeck Jacuzzi.

Following the show, superyacht BARENTS was sold for around $15 million and her new owner commissioned a major refit. A great deal of money was spent on updating her interior with a classic-modern style of design as well as on brand-new exterior furniture and entertainment systems.

Below Deck: Mediterranean

Following on from the success of Below Deck , the spin-off  Below Deck: Mediterranean premiered in May 2016. While the original series takes place during the winter charter season when the Caribbean is at its peak, Below Deck: Mediterranean is filmed during the summer charter season.

Season one of Below Deck: Mediterranean saw Captain Mark Howard at the helm, but the baton was passed to Captain Sandy Yawn from two onwards. Chief Stewardess Hannah Ferrier was another permanent fixture on the show from season one to five, before leaving the show in season six.

As its name suggests, the show is based in the Mediterranean , the world’s most popular yachting hub from May to October. Despite the change in location, the same format and accompanying on-water antics from the crew and guests alike can be expected. Below, all the names of the superyachts which have appeared on the show, and the cost to rent them.

Season 8 of Below Deck: Mediterranean was aired in September 2023 and brought back yet more antics that included some tense franchise firsts. Set in the Ligurian Riviera, the hit Bravo series returns to Italy for the first time since season 3. The series followed the crew from mid-August until mid-September of 2022 onboard the 180-feet superyacht MUSTIQUE .

Holding up to 12 guests across 6 classically decorated cabins, this yacht is the epitome of elegance with its glossy mahogany paneling and cream upholstery. She is replete with water toys, including kayaks, a seabob, waterskis, and Zapata Flyboards, and has expansive deck areas– offering plenty of scope for both crew and guest antics which make Below Deck: Mediterranean so entertaining.

Season 7 of Below Deck: Mediterranean returned to the screens in July 2022 and brought back more drama and wealthy clientele, creating endless entertainment for viewers at home. Set in Malta , a destination never seen before on the show, the series followed the crew over an eight-week charter season onboard the 49m (160ft) superyacht HOME .

Accommodating up to 12 guests across 6 beautifully decorated staterooms, this yacht is described as a home away from home, the perfect platform for guests to soak up the sunshine, kick back and relax. From her convivial sundeck setup replete with a Jacuzzi and glowing cocktail bar to her panoramic sky lounge and state-of-the-art water toys, this yacht certainly had the wow factor that was required for Below Deck: Mediterranean .

LADY MICHELLE (renamed NEXT CHAPTER)

Season 6 of Below Deck: Mediterranean premiered in June 2021 and saw a new vessel,  motor yacht LADY MICHELLE , since re-named NEXT CHAPTER, take center stage. It also saw the return of Captain Sandy and Bosun Malia, plus a brand new crew. 

A floating paradise that turns heads on the water, this heavenly Benetti vessel comfortably accommodates 12 guests across 6 sumptuous staterooms, with additional capacity for up to 12 crew members. She also boasts an open-air cinema, a split-level owner's suite and an impressive array of water toys.

This season takes the crew to one of the most idyllic cruising grounds in the East Mediterranean : Croatia . Abounding with serene golden beaches, crystalline waters and gorgeous coves to explore, it's one of the most popular yacht charter destinations.

THE WELLINGTON (aka THE WELLESLEY)

Charter yacht The Wellesley

Season 5 of Below Deck: Mediterranean premiered in the summer of 2020. The show was shot on board the motor yacht THE WELLESLEY , and the superyacht was given the alias THE WELLINGTON over the course of filming. 

The yacht has an elegant 1920's theme, with a chic club lounge complete with a bespoke humidor. She features plenty of marble accents and ample alfresco deck areas, as well as a jacuzzi with innovative spill pool features.

The yachties set course for Spain for this season, cruising around the azure waters of the Balearic Islands . The homeport was Port Adriano on the island of Mallorca .

Featuring in both Season 4 and Season 2 of Below Deck: Mediterranean ,  superyacht SIROCCO  is a yacht charter sensation. An elegant and sophisticated Heesen -built motor yacht, she features plenty of alfresco sunning areas and an 8-person jacuzzi pool; the perfect spot for the charter guests to unwind after a long day exploring.

Season 4 took the crew to one of the most iconic destinations in the Mediterranean ; the South of France . Between the luxury yachting hub of Monaco to the beautiful beaches in St Tropez , this season promises lashings of glitz and glamour. During Season 2 of Below Deck: Mediterranean , M/Y SIROCCO cruised the picturesque waters of  Croatia .

TALISMAN MAITON

Premiering in 2018, season 3 of  Below Deck: Mediterranean saw familiar and new faces head to the sublime cruising grounds of Italy. This time, the crew treated their discerning guests to a world of luxury on board the 54m/178ft motor yacht TALISMAN MAITON .

Built in 2006 and refit to an exacting standard in 2016, the yacht boasts a range of exciting features that make her particularly appropriate for the waters of the Amalfi Coast . Indeed, her entertainment options range from a stunning selection of water toys to a sundeck Jacuzzi and a refreshingly modern interior.

IONIAN PRINCESS

Ionain Princess season 1 Below Deck Mediterranean

Premiering on 3 May 2016, the very first season of Below Deck: Mediterranean , a spin-off of the increasingly popular franchise, took to viewers' screens. This time the ‘yachties’ took care of their guests onboard the motor yacht IONIAN PRINCESS  in the Mediterranean  destination of Greece . 

The starring yacht IONIAN PRINCESS was delivered from Christensen in 2005 and was later refit in 2016 and again in 2021. Truly opulent, she bears interiors that are sleekly finished with a range of warmly toned woods and plenty of comfortable furnishings. She also boasts one of the largest sundecks for a yacht of her size.

Below Deck: Mediterranean Season 1 yacht IONIAN PRINCESS is not currently available for private yacht charter vacations.

Below Deck: Sailing Yacht

This is the first time the Below Deck franchise branched away from gleaming motor yachts, with the various weather issues that sailing yachts have to contend with adding even more drama and excitement.

The design of luxury sailing yachts  also creates far more confined crew areas than we are used to seeing on the original Below Deck . In general, sailing yachts tend to feature smaller galleys, compact stew stations and cramped crew quarters which are in closer proximity to the guests’ living areas, putting crew under increased pressure to deliver their signature silver service.

In addition, deck crew are placed in a far more demanding role, with sailing yachts requiring increased accuracy and precision to safely maneuver and plenty of deck duties taking place in the midst of guest areas.

PARSIFAL III

Sailing yacht on Below Deck

An iconic and suitable yacht for the much-loved series Below Deck: Sailing , the 54m (177ft) sailing yacht PARSIFAL III has blessed our screens for all four series of the hit maritime show.

Season 1 saw the sailing yacht cruising around the beautiful islands of Greece , an  East Mediterranean destination that is peppered with an incredible variety of islands. Season 2 was set around the glistening waters of Croatia and in  Season 3 of Below Deck Sailing , M/Y PARSIFAL III came back to where she traditionally charters in the beautiful Balearic island of Menorca . For the latest Below Deck: Sailing Yacht season she ventured around the glittering coastline of Sardinia .

The yacht can comfortably charter up to 12 guests across 5 luxurious cabins with a layout comprising a master suite, two double cabins and two twin cabins.

Below Deck: Down Under

Venturing to the mesmerizing Whitsunday islands in Australia , the much-beloved maritime show released another spin-off of the hit show in April 2022, Below Deck: Down Under . Recorded on Queensland's shores, viewers can see for themselves the impeccable Australian islands and all their beauty as the superyachts, their crew and charter guests travel to some of the most sought-after destinations in the world.  

NORTHERN SUN

Charter yacht NORTHERN SUN

Below Deck: Down Under  returns to our screens for its second outing, this time on board the 51m (167ft) explorer yacht NORTHERN SUN , with the coastal paradise of Cairns in Australia’s northern Queensland providing the glittering backdrop.

Headed up once more by the handsome Captain Jason Chambers, he is joined by returning chief stewardess, Aesha Scott, along with a brand new crew, including Chef Tzarina Mace-Ralph, Bosun Luke Jones and stews Laura Bileskaine and Margot Sisson.

Promising another round of crew antics and high drama, the bulk of the action takes place on board the classic explorer yacht, primed for adventure and boasting a wealth of luxurious amenities and an eye-catching exterior, charter guests will be in for a treat.

KERI LEE III (AKA THALASSA)

Keri Lee III or Thalassa from Below Deck Down Under

The perfect yacht for season 1 of Below Deck: Down Under , the 55m (181ft) yacht KERI LEE is the prime candidate for anyone looking for a taste of the superyacht lifestyle. Described as being like Downton Abbey on a boat, the yacht is home to an expansive beauty salon, massage room, gym, jacuzzi and movie theater, so there is definitely enough to keep all charter guests entertained.

In the first season of Below Deck: Down Under , this yacht traveled to some pretty spectacular destinations from the Great Barrier Reef , including the Whitsunday's , Hook Island, Block Reef and Henning Island, giving charter guests the opportunity to witness the outstanding beauty and clear waters of the Pacific .

Below Deck: Adventure

Airing its inaugral season at the end of 2022, Below Deck: Adventure brings more drama than ever before as the show takes viewers beyond the deck and off the yacht as thrill-seeking charter guests embark on a range of extreme and unforgettable experiences around the Norwegian Fjords. Some of the activities include paragliding, exploring unique caves and taking extreme helicopter rides, Below Deck: Adventure provides endless entertainment as well as giving viewers a glimpse of the astonishingly beautiful landscapes in and around  Norway . 

In  Below Deck: Adventure season 1, Capt. Kerry Titheradge leads the crew with Jessica Condy as Chef and Faye Clarke as Chief Stew.

As seen in season 1 of Below Deck Adventure , the 49m (164ft) motor yacht MERCURY is a high-quality and highly reliable Dutch-built luxury charter yacht. Delivered by Amels in 2001, the yacht is to the highest standard and pedigree and boasts a wealth of convivial spaces, perfect for relaxing, unwinding and socializing onboard. 

Home to an impressive array of amenities, standout highlights include an expansive Jacuzzi, a large swim platform for easy access to the water and a gym. An advanced stabilization system on board reduces the side-to-side roll of the yacht and promises guests exceptional comfort levels at anchor or when underway.
