Frequently asked questions

How does YachtCharterMatch work?

You send a request with your destination, dates, number of guests, occasion and preferred contact method. We contact local licensed charter companies and yacht owners, check availability and send you suitable options with prices and terms by Telegram, WhatsApp, phone or email. Matching is free; you pay only for the charter you choose.

What does the advertised price include?

Prices on the site are indicative market “from” prices in EUR for the yacht and its captain. What else is included, such as fuel, drinks, catering, water toys or transfers, varies by yacht and destination. Each offer we send states exactly what the price covers and what is charged separately.

Is a captain included?

Yes. Every yacht we offer is chartered with a professional captain, included in the price, so you do not need a licence or experience. Larger yachts usually also have one or more crew. Tips are not included and are always at your discretion.

Is fuel included, and are there extra charges?

On short cruises fuel is often included for a standard route; on full days and longer routes it may be charged separately. Other possible extras include marina fees, VAT or local taxes, catering, water toys, transfers, and APA on weekly charters. The offer lists them before you decide.

How do deposits and payments work?

A booking is confirmed only after you accept a written offer and pay the deposit set by the yacht owner or operator. The deposit size and balance schedule are the operator's terms and are stated in the offer. Payment goes to the operator; our website does not process payments.

Can I cancel and get a refund?

Cancellation and refund rules are set by the yacht operator and written in the offer and charter contract. Usually, the earlier you cancel, the more is refundable. Please read these terms before paying the deposit. Sending a request costs nothing and does not commit you to anything.

What happens if the weather is bad?

The captain decides whether it is safe to go out, and port authorities can also close the sea. If a trip is cancelled for weather or safety reasons, operators typically offer a new date or a refund, but the exact policy depends on the operator and is stated in the offer.

How many people can come on board?

Each yacht has a licensed maximum number of passengers, shown as guests on its page, and that limit cannot be exceeded, including children. For comfort, choose a yacht whose limit is a little above your group size. Overnight capacity is lower and depends on the number of cabins.

Can I book from abroad, and in which currency?

Yes. You can send a request from anywhere and arrange the charter before you travel; we communicate in English or Russian by messenger, phone or email. Prices on the site are shown in EUR for comparison, but quotes may be in the operator's currency, such as EUR, USD, AED or THB.

How quickly will I receive options?

It depends on the destination, the season and how many operators need to confirm availability for your date. Simple requests in busy charter hubs can be answered quickly; peak dates, large groups or weekly charters may take longer. We send options as soon as operators confirm them.
