If you have the necessary qualifications (a skipper’s licence and the necessary experience) you can charter a yacht as a bareboat. The specific set of necessary qualifications depend on the destination, since regulations for yacht renting as well as our own policy vary by country. Please refer to our general FAQ web page for further specifications for your desired country.

If you do not have the necessary qualifications and would like to charter a yacht, you can hire one of Navigare’s professional skippers. In this case he will be responsible for all potential damages on board, in addition to providing a professional service and friendly attitude while ensuring your security and comfort. You can also discuss with him the desired sailing route. You can select the Skipper option online under optional extras.

After you request the charter, we will send you an automated confirmation. If you do not receive one, please check your spam folder. The email will contain information on the login to the member area. After we receive your request for the charter, our representative will contact you and send you the booking confirmation (in case of the bank transfer it will state the needed payment amount). In case of credit card payment we will contact you with the booking confirmation, and our representatives will take you through the whole process.

Before sailing, and after receiving the booking confirmation, you will need to register your accompanying sailing crew. We offer a couple of options on how to do that: you can download our Navigare Experience application for Android and iOS, and easily register using your mobile phone, or you can register your crew using our member area online.

If the Charterer, who has paid the total charter price, informs NY of their wish to cancel the vessel at least 4 weeks before the start of the agreed charter, the Charterer is entitled to a refund of 50% of the total paid amount.

If the cancellation is due to objective reasons (death in family, heavy injury etc.), the paid amount will not be refunded, but NY will place the vessel at the Charterer's disposal during another period or during the following sailing season, subject to availability.

Yes, indeed. All the reviews were made by our guests after they completed the charter. You will also have the opportunity to rate us.
