Types of Charters
Captain-only charters offer significant savings:
- Lower base charter fee (captain services vs. full crew)
- All expenses separate (fuel, provisions, dockage, etc.)
- You control food and beverage budget completely
- Captain gratuity at week’s end (typically 15% of charter fee)
Total investment is usually 40-60% of comparable fully crewed charter, depending on your provision choices and cruising style.
