Rules are inevitable. They are for your safety. Kayaks, skis, towable wakeboards, and bananas are great toys to have on a mega yacht charter. The most requested aquasport equipment is the personal watercraft (PWC). Jetskis and waverunners are fashionable on yachts for hire, particularly the newest yachts available for charter.
KNOW THE RULES FOR WATERCRAFT
Firstly, charter clients can end up frustrated and disappointed if they are not aware of the rules regarding the use of PWC’s in certain cruising grounds. Waverunners not allowed in certain protected bays and coves, some governments require the operator of the PWC to have a license – and please note: an automobile driver’s license is NOT sufficient.
Secondly, before you sign your rental yacht agreement, look for a very standard clause similar to this:
“Use of personal water craft is only permitted subject to the operator having the appropriate license and meeting with local operating regulations. Any liability arising from noncompliance is entirely at the operator’s risk.”
Bottom line, just because your yacht carries waverunners onboard does not mean you can legally use them.
HOW TO GET A PWC LICENSE TO FOLLOW RULES
Thirdly, get a license! One way to obtain a PWC license is via one of many online boating safety courses. Courses may vary from state to state and from country to country. Fortunately, many PWC licenses are recognized and accepted in major charter destinations like the Western Med.
Once you obtain your PWC license, be sure to discuss with your crew your desire to use the yacht’s personal watercraft. You might be surprised to find your cruising ground does not permit the use of PWC’s – license or not!
This is especially true in areas with sensitive eco systems. British Virgin Islands yacht charters, for example, are not allowed to use PWC’s anywhere in the island chain.
In conclusion, knowing the rules for operating personal watercraft before your charter will help make your vacation safer and memorable for all the right reasons!
When it comes to luxurious sailing yachts, one name has dominated the industry for years. The name is Perini Navi. A Perini Navi yacht charter is the fusion of the luxury of a motoryacht. Specifically with the exhilaration and performance of a wind-powered sailboat. Sailing is ultimately eco-friendly. It is the superyacht experience™.
For the past decade, the 64 meter Perini Navi sail yacht SPIRIT OF THE C’s cruised the warm winter waters of the Caribbean. Now, the yacht owner’s office has contacted us to promote a special rate for the remainder of the season. Uniquely, enjoy 7 nights for the price of 6, now through April 30, 2017.
So, for example, book a Virgin Islands yacht charter holiday onboard yacht SPIRIT OF THE C’s and you’ll save 14%…
ABOUT THE YACHT
One of the largest and fastest aluminum sailing yachts in the world, SPIRIT OF THE C’s (ex- FELICITA WEST) is currently available for charter in the Caribbean. After an extensive refit which included a sundeck extension, a complete rebuild and refurbishment of her interior, and the remodeling of the guest cockpit area, she is ready to welcome up to 10 guests in five well-appointed cabins, including a full-beam width master stateroom.
Her new brighter and slightly more minimalistic interior creates a sense of space and an easy flow throughout the yacht.
As for the outdoor spaces, on the main deck, the dining and lounging areas are well-protected from the sun and the wind, while the flybridge is the perfect location for all’aperto (outdoor) dining — the views from here are stunning. With a dedicated crew of 12 professionals, this is an ideal yacht for island hopping throughout the Caribbean, and we highly recommend this yacht for Virgin Island yacht charter holiday, as the winter breezes are ideal for spirited sailing.

The National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America has released a disturbing study detailing the threat of plastic pollution in the ocean, and its impact on seabirds. Plastic trash is found in 90 percent of seabirds. The rate is growing steadily as global production of plastics increases.
According to the Academy, the “Threat of plastic pollution to seabirds is global, pervasive, and increasing.”
AREAS OF IMPACT
The areas of impact facing the greatest threats are the southern boundary of the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans.
WHAT PLASTIC IS FOUND IN BIRDS?
Plastic found inside birds includes bottle caps, plastic shopping bags, and tiny pieces the size of rice that have been broken down by the sun and waves.
COMPANY PRESIDENT COMMENTS
After reading the study’s abstract, Jana Sheeder, President of 1-800 Yacht Charters commented on the health impact facing the seabirds. “Living along the coast of South Florida, I have seen the small plastic pieces of plastic that wash up into our mangroves and our shoreline,” says Sheeder. “The wildlife rescue groups that we support tell us sharp-edged plastic pieces can kills birds by punching holes in their internal organs. Some seabirds eat so much plastic, there is little room in their stomachs for food. Lack of food affects their body weight and jeopardizes their health.”
WHAT DOES 2050 LOOK LIKE FOR SEABIRDS?
Sheeder echoes the concerns of scientists and environmentalists: “At current levels, virtually every seabird will be consuming plastic by 2050. If we don’t address this issue, we are looking at a major contributing factor to the possible extinction of many seabird species. We can’t let that happen.”
YACHTING INDUSTRY INVOLVEMENT
Sheeder feels her yachting industry can do more in terms of effective waste management to reduce the threat. “Almost all of the yachts we represent for private yacht charter vacations have the onboard capability to generate fresh drinking water. Now, when our clients request plastic bottled water to be placed onboard prior to their charter, we encourage them to forgo plastic and drink the yacht’s purified water.”

SHEEDER COMMENTS
Sheeder is confident the tide can be turned. “The report by the National Academy of Sciences paints a grim future. Consequently, it also points out that effective waste management can reduce the threat. Protecting our future means preserving the marine environment and promoting responsibility onboard our yachts, in the seas, and along our shores.”
SHEEDER CONTINUES
Sheeder further comments, “Everyone can do something. Even just one thing every day. It’s not hard to take that extra moment to help another. Many prefer to stick their heads in the sand rather than being role models and making a difference.”
SHEEDER ENCOURAGES OTHERS
She encourages others to be the change and leave all areas better than you found them. Additionally, pick up trash. Properly dispose of your own trash. Moreover, give back to the environment, to animals, and to others. Subsequently, practice random acts of kindness (RAK’s) to people, animals, your community, and the environment. Finally, show your #Gratitude for the beauty of the wildlife and joy that they give you by protecting them. Use reusable totebags (versus plastic shopping bags) and be a 1-800 Yacht Charters Eco Hero!

Looking for a way to entertain potential clients during the upcoming Venice Film festival 2015? Nothing says, “Thank you for the opportunity” to a prospect quite as well as a soiree onboard a multi-million euro megayacht.
SUPERYACHT FORCE BLUE
The Festival runs from September 2 through 12, and the Royal Denship yacht FORCE BLUE is available for hire in Venice and is offering a discounted rate to secure a booking. Normally priced at €235,000 per week in September, the 207 foot yacht has lowered her price to €195,000 per week (a savings of €40,000).
GLAMOUR AND BUZZ
Along with Cannes, Venice has long been considered one of Europe’s most glamorous, buzzy film events. A-list celebrities, but more importantly, film makers and buyers attend in the hopes of securing lucrative deals to promote and release independently produced movies.
CHARTERING FOR EVENTS TAKES PREPARATION
To charter a yacht for a special event normally takes many months of advance logistical planning, and securing dockage next to an event venue often requires a reservation a year or so in advance. Fortunately, it is easier to secure last minute space in Venice, as the abundance of waterways make it easier to use the yacht’s tenders to get to and from onshore venues.
THE YACHTS ARE THE VENUE
Large yachts like Royal Denship FORCE BLUE become a venue unto themselves. They serve as a place to conduct private business negotiations. Also, charterers entertain business associates and prospective clients onboard. With numerous entertainment areas, both inside the yacht and on her massive deck, hundreds of guests can gather to socialize. After the guests leave, the charterer and a select number of special guests (totalling 12 or fewer) can use the yacht as a private floating hotel – with a full-time staff of 19 onboard to attend to meals and cater to the guests’ every whim.
ONBOARD AMENITIES OF FORCE BLUE
The yacht’s onboard amenities include onboard cinema (perfect for private film screenings), full gymnasium, hairdresser’s room, and a spa center, featuring Hamman steam shower, mud bath, sauna, hydro massage Jacuzzi, and massage room.
UPGRADE THOSE GATHERINGS
Social gatherings can be upgraded to full-scale dance parties. The yacht’s aft bridge deck can be transformed into a disco. There is a professional DJ station complete with psychedelic lights and disco woofer speakers.
Choose to lay a white carpet down on the dance floor, if you wish. This allows guests to dance with their shoes on. Most yachts do NOT allow guests to wear shoes on deck.
AND DON’T FORGET THIS YACHT TRAIT
There is one component that makes the yacht hire so unique and practical. In specific, total privacy. No one steps onboard a yacht without the Charter’s permission. This discreet venue means businesspeople can negotiate deals in seclusion. Additionally, they entertain special guests. All of this away from the attention of gawkers, competitors, and the paparazzi.
They say, “Time flies when you’re having fun.” It seems like yesterday we were looking forward to the launchings of 2011’s newest yachts, and planning charters for special events like the 2011 Cannes Film Festival and the 2011 Monaco Grand Prix.
YEAR WINDS DOWN
As the year winds down and clients make their last-minute preparations for Christmas and New Year’s Caribbean yacht charters, we take a minute to look back at our most popular yachting-related stories of 2011:
Going on a Virgin Islands yacht charter is loads of fun, but getting there can be tedious. Having a cool new gadget on hand is a great way to kill some time…
While gossip websites circulated a series of photographs purporting to show the “Gossip Girl” actress posing naked, Blake and Leo were seen relaxing and laughing onboard motoryacht SEVEN SEAS, Speilberg’s multi-million dollar superyacht, during the recent Cannes Film Festival 2011…
It has been said a great vacation is all about escaping. For many, that means escaping the confines of their homes and the rigors of their work. For others, it is best achieved by escaping the confines of their clothes…

Top Three Well-Traveled Celebrity Couples From après-ski private chalets in Vail, to multi-deck behemoth superyacht vessels in the Caribbean, some celebrity power couples take traveling to the extreme…
Jana Sheeder, President of The SailAway Group reflects on the Monaco Yacht Show – one of the greatest showcases of luxury charter vessels in the world. Each year, approximately 100 megayachts from 25 to 90 meters long are on display. What makes this show truly unique is the number of new yachts on hand. About 40 of the newest superyachts delivered in the past 12 months are on exhibit…
Valentine’s Day. Specifically, the yearly opportunity to profess our love to that special someone in our lives. For many of us, we turn to traditional gifts like chocolate, flowers, or a romantic dinner to express our affection.
UPSCALE GIFT GIVERS
Ah, but the uber-wealthy are different. Even gifts of jewelry pale in comparison to the grandiose gestures some HNWI’s (high net-worth individuals) bestow on their significant others and loved ones.
Yep, when it comes to over-the-top, what says “je t’aime mon tresor” more than a gift of a private superyacht???
THE ULTIMATE GIFT
Of course, the ultimate enhancement to the ultimate gift – naming your yacht to honor the one you love…
TOP 5 LOVING NAMES OF YACHTS
In celebration of Valentine’s Day 2016, we share our favorite 5 private yacht charter vessels with names inspired by love. Some names are whimsical and cute, others haughty. Our favorite name, # 1, is simple and oh-so-perfect — boasting the two most famous words uttered by almost every man who understands (and appreciates) who’s really the boss!
5. 4YOU – Imagine the surprise when this owner turned to his wife and handed her the keys to a 180 foot megayacht, aptly named, 4YOU. Launched in 2012, this spectacular yacht from the Amels Limited Edition 180 series was designed by Tim Heywood, and features a stunning modern-chic interior by Laura Sessa Romboli. Up to 12 guests can enjoy a Greek yacht charter vacation, from €280,000 per week
4. DREAM PRINCESS – Sure, lots of guys call their lady a, “Princess.” But a DREAM PRINCESS? That’s ramping it up another notch. A popular yacht for special events (e.g. Monaco Grand Prix yacht charter, MIPIM yacht charter, etc.), this Princess 64 motor yacht is a vessel with a real sense of occasion. She offers exceptional performance and boasts a sleek, sporty profile hiding a spacious three-cabin charter layout. Her interior is light, with elegant details. Rates from €18,000 per week
ADDITIONAL YACHTS
3. HONEY BEAR – Every once in a while, we find a yacht named by a woman for the man in her life. The 28 meter Sunseeker 90 yacht HONEY BEAR is a fast, fun yacht for sophisticated yet informal Monaco yacht charter holidays. Her modern yet warm interior offers plenty of space for relaxation, and her open deck areas are perfect for enjoying the sunshine. She provides accommodations for 8 guests in 4 staterooms and is priced from €45,000 per week
2. LADY BRIT – there are lots of “Ladies” in the charter fleet, Lady Sheila, Lady Victoria, and more. Still, one stands out for her simple, elegant name – the epitome of European class: LADY BRIT. Surprisingly, the yacht was not named for the owner’s wife, but rather, in honor of his mother. The 207 foot Feadship yacht LADY BRIT offers the ideal platform for a resort-style St Barts Yacht Charter in the Caribbean, as she features a wellness spa, gymnasium with panoramic views, outdoor cinema, and an authentic Finnish sauna with private access to the water. Weekly rates start at $445,000 per week
FINAL YACHT
1. YES DEAR – what man hasn’t uttered those two words to his special someone??? She is a Voyage 580 Virgin Islands catamaran charter vessel. Sail yacht YES DEAR is 58 feet long and 31 feet wide. This is the perfect design for maximum comfort and stability. She features 5 cabins for up to 10 guests. Her weekly rates start at $24,000. Funny side note. Her dinghy is named, “No Dear.”
If there is one name that is echoed time and time again by our charter clients, it is Trinity Yachts.
Perini Navi, Benetti, and Feadship enthusiasts appear at the show, and above all, the record number of Trinity luxury yacht charter superyachts attend the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) is amazing.
SHOW MANAGEMENT COMMENTS
Trinity fans smile.
Andrew Doole of Show Management reports this years Golden Anniversary of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) attracted an amazing 149 superyachts over 30 meter on display.
YACHTS IN ATTENDANCE
The Trinity list is headed by the 196′ BACARELLA and closely followed by the 177′ KATHERINE.
Not to be missed are ANGILIS, WHEELS, BLIND DATE, BIG CITY, LADY LINDA, VITA, and MY IRIS.
The aforementioned Trinity superyachts are only a sampling at the show. However, there are megayachts on display for all desires. As a result, all yacht charter fans rejoice.
WHAT TIME IS THE SHOW?
Prime Time Trinity preview is on Thursday, October 29th from 10am to 7pm. The show is open to the general public at the same times. FLIBS is held from Friday, October 30th to Sunday, November 1st. Finally, the show ends at 5pm on Monday, November 2nd.
OK, we’ll admit it – when Dee Kraley, manager of motor yacht SuRi, first invited us onboard the former oil rig supply boat, we were skeptical. Was it really possible to take an old ship built in 1978 by Halter Marine, cut her in half to extend her overall length from the middle, and transform her into a modern expedition yacht charter vessel?
WOW! AMAZING…
After two extensive rebuilds and a 2016 refit, the answer is a resounding, “YES!” The “old supply ship” is indeed one of the most luxurious charter yachts available in her size and price category.
WHAT HAS CHANGED ON MOTORYACHT SURI
Adding 11 meters to her overall length significantly boosted her volume, both indoors and on deck.
ADVENTURE AHEAD
Yet more impressive than her transformation is her owner’s commitment to creating the ultimate adventure travel vessel in the charter market.
ULTIMATE WATERSPORTS CENTER
While most superyachts carry a respectable inventory of watersports gear, this yacht takes it to another level – with multiple tenders, a helicopter, seaplane, jet skis, hoverboard, scuba diving equipment, quadskis, and so much more. Twenty (20) active, athletic crewmembers add to the neverending fun, excitement, and adventure enjoyed by charter guests.
WHERE IS SURI BASED?
So where do you base a yacht filled-to-the-brim with toys? It must be a destination with endless opportunities for exploration and water-themed adventure. The answer? The South Pacific and the islands of Fiji, French Polynesia, and Indonesia.
FAVORITE ANCHORAGE
A favorite anchorage for yacht SuRi and her charter guests are the islands of Raja Ampat, an archipelago of 1500 islands located off the northwest tip of New Guinea. Marine life thrives here, and the bio-diversity is unlike anywhere else in the world – with hundreds of species of corals and reef fish, along with whales, dolphins, and giant rays.

Check out this amazing action-packed yacht charter video of motoryacht SuRi and her onboard guests enjoying the breathtaking beauty of Raja Ampat:

DOES TOM CRUISE OWN SURI?
WHAT’S IN A NAME? No, she is not owned by Tom Cruise or Katie Holmes or daughter, Suri. Her name, SuRi, is the combination of her owners’ first names. Just in case you were wondering… 😉
The popularity of private luxury yacht charter vacations continues to rise. One reason? The desire of travelers to minimize Covid-19 exposure while on vacation. Indeed, charter yacht holidays are considered among the safest vacation options. When you are on a private yacht, only your family and your crew are present. Important to note: the crew is tested for the virus prior to your arrival]. Compare chartering to staying in a hotel. Certainly, you and your family can potentially come into contact with many employees and guests in a hotel or upscale resort.
Perhaps you are considering your first vacation on a charter yacht. Luxury certainly awaits you – but what else can you expect? Specifically, what is included when you rent a yacht?
BAREBOAT OR CREWED?
Let’s begin with a small distinction – and an assumption. For this blog, we are referring to “crewed” (with crew) charter yachts. Alternately, some travelers rent a bareboat. What is the distinction?
BAREBOAT
A bareboat is a boat you operate on your own. For example, in the same way that you rent a car, you rent a boat and operate it yourself. Of course, this assumes you are qualified to operate a boat – and have a cruising resume to prove it!
CREWED YACHT
In this blog, we are focusing on “crewed” yachts. A crewed yacht simply means you are the onboard guests – not the operators. A crewed yacht is a yacht with a crew. A talented staff of professional mariners handles all aspects of operations – from navigating to cooking and cleaning.
“ALL-INCLUSIVE”
The price of a crewed yacht for hire includes the yacht, the crew, and the use of onboard amenities and water toys. However, there are more items that may or may not be included.
To understand what else is included in a charter vacation, we must begin with an important distinction: Is the price quoted “all-inclusive” or “plus expenses?”
Most all-inclusive charters include your meals and basic beverages (sodas, water, and non-premium alcohol). Furthermore, they also include the fuel needed to operate the yacht, as well as any dockage fees. Normally, local taxes and requisite government cruising permits are included as well.
Please note – some “all-inclusive” yachts do not cover the local taxes and cruising permits. Make sure to read the fine print before signing your charter agreement.
As a general rule of thumb, all-inclusive charters are commonly available on smaller (40 to 80 foot) sailing yachts based in the Caribbean. Some smaller motor yachts also offer all-inclusive pricing in the Caribbean. All-inclusive pricing is uncommon in the Western Mediterranean (Spain, Italy, France, etc.). Yachts in the Eastern Mediterranean (primarily Greece) offer a hybrid version of all-inclusive pricing. Specifically, food and basic beverages are included, but fuel and dockage are not.
Many all-inclusive yachts offer extra services for an additional fee. For example, the yacht you are considering for your vacation might be all-inclusive, yet charge a separate fee for the use of onboard SCUBA diving equipment.
SPECIAL REQUESTS
“Special requests” can also add to the total price of an all-inclusive yacht charter. As outlined above, beverages and non-premium alcohol are normally included. However, requests for specific premium brands and/or vintage wines and champagnes will be charged to you as an additional expense.
“PLUS EXPENSES”
Most larger yachts for hire opt for an a-la-carte approach to what is included in the charter fee. Yes, the charter rate includes the yacht and crew and the use of amenities and toys. The similarity to an all-inclusive charter ends there.
Large yachts, both in the Caribbean and the Mediterranean employ “plus expenses” pricing. The concept is quite simple and straight forward. All expenses related to the operation of the yacht during the charter are the responsibility of the charterer.
RUNNING EXPENSES
Certain expenses are commonly referred to as “running expenses.” They include but are not limited to, food, all beverages, fuel, dockage, and any applicable taxes and cruising permits.
SO HOW CAN I BUDGET?
At this point, you might be wondering, “How can I budget for these running expenses, since I won’t know the total expenditures until the conclusion of the charter?” It’s a great question. To avoid confusion and possible embarrassment, yachts that operate “plus expenses” collect a deposit from the charterer before the trip begins. This deposit is referred to as an “Advance Provisioning Allowance” or “APA.” Most yachts require an APA deposit equal to 30-35% of the charter fee. Historically, yacht captains have calculated a typical charter incurs about 30% more than the actual charter fee in running expenses.
APA FUNDS
Captains use the APA funds they have on hand to pay for the running expenses throughout the tip. For example, they use the funds to pay for fuel, and for dockage.
A Captain keeps a detailed log of all expenditures during the charter. At the end of the charter, the Captain presents a detailed expense report to the lead charter guest. Any remaining funds are returned to the charterer.
SHORTAGE?
Sometimes, there is a shortage. In this case, the charterer owes additional funds to the captain before departing the yacht. Of course, you are probably thinking, “What if I don’t have enough funds on hand to cover the shortage?” No worries! Captains monitor the expenses throughout the charter. If they sense there might be a shortage, they will come to the lead charter guests and explain the situation. If necessary, most charter guests simply wire additional funds into the yacht’s APA account.
OVERAGE?
In the event of an APA overage, the lead client decides the distribution. Funds either return to the client or, as if often the case, the monies apply to a crew gratuity.

We receive numerous inquires each summer for a yacht in Monte Carlo. Somehow, we don’t think this is what the typical luxury yacht charter customer has in mind.:
Plans are underway to build theworld’s first $1 billion dollar yacht.
YACHT ISLAND DESIGN
British-based architects Yacht Island Design have come up with the concept of a James Bond-esque yacht that looks like a small city. Motor yacht STREETS of MONACO will be a $1.1 billion project, built to resemble Monte Carlo, the municipality within the principality of Monaco, and known for its casino, luxury resorts, and annual Formula 1 Grand Prix race.
LAYOUT AND FEATURES
The +500 foot yacht will feature four levels and boast such items as a casino, go-kart circuit, tennis courts, and multiple pools with swim-up Jacuzzi bars. Plans also include a massive dining room with underwater views. The vessel will not have traditional decks. Plans include buildings, including a replica of Monaco’s famed Hotel de Paris.
INTERIOR
Upper and lower living areas will be connected via a grand atrium. Seven guest suites, a library, and cinema will be situated in the lower level. The owner’s suite, a three-story, 4,800 square-foot area, and an entertainment salon will make up the upper level.
“It is basically a floating city,” according to company director Rob McPherson. “The design theme called for a unique yacht that reflected the style and sophistication of the principality.”
