What to Expect on Charter
What's it like to spend 7 nights on an all-inclusive luxury charter yacht with a professional crew?
Your crew is experienced and well-trained and will not disappoint when showing you the charter area’s highlights for the best vacation ever! The Captain has a professional license and the boat is fully insured. The team is responsible for the safety and well-being of all onboard. They plan the sailing route and make sure the yacht is safe at anchor or on the dock.
Your Chef is eager to show off the best cuisine and other culinary delights. They will plan the menu according to special diets or preferences. On larger vessels with additional crew, the Deckhand will be ready to take you in the tender for water sports or to go ashore. The Steward(ess) will keep your cabin looking immaculate, and together the entire crew is willing to help each other to ensure that you enjoy a well-deserved fun-in-the-sun vacation and a successful trip of a lifetime.

No. The barefoot rule is there to keep the decks undamaged, carpets from getting stained and soles from marking the clean decks. If you need to have shoes on for medical reasons you can wear white soled shoes that have not been worn outside. Shoes specifically designed for yachts or soft sports sandals, with a good grip on the sole, would be an option. Here is more information on What to Pack
