When you rent a crewed charter yacht, you would expect certain MUST-HAVES.
All the yachts for rent with Epic Yacht Charters are crewed. You don’t have to lift a finger unless you wish to join in on the sailing/motoring. You certainly do not have to participate in ANY cooking since your private chef is trained. If you have an additional crew on your charter, they will attend to cabins and watersport activities.
The yachts for rent are mostly catamarans. They have much more space to move about and are certainly very comfortable underway and at anchor.
Must-haves:
- Comfortable bed and bedding
- Large windows for ample light
- En-suite bathrooms with walk-in shower stalls
- Hairdryers
- Electric flush toilettes
- Air conditioning with individual controls
- Electric fans and reading lights

- A flybridge/sky-lounge
- Comfortable seating with backrests
- Sun-beds with a shaded option
- A dining table or large coffee table
- A bbq grill
- A refrigerator
