A fully-crewed yacht charter offers the ultimate luxury sailing experience, but there are a few key factors to consider before finalizing your booking. From provisioning costs to crew accommodations, understanding these details will ensure a seamless and stress-free journey.
When booking an all-inclusive yacht charter, it’s essential to factor in the Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA)—a pre-paid fund that covers essential expenses during your trip.
💰 What does the APA cover?
✔ Fuel costs – Ensures smooth navigation between destinations.
✔ Food & beverages – Your private chef sources fresh, high-quality ingredients based on your preferences.
✔ Mooring fees – Covers docking fees at exclusive marinas & ports.
✔ Taxes & permits – Includes any applicable government or cruising fees in your chosen destination.
💡 How much is the APA?
Typically, the APA is 20% of the charter fee, but this may vary depending on the yacht and itinerary. At the end of your trip, any unused funds will be refunded with a detailed expense report for full transparency.
On a fully-crewed yacht, the crew requires dedicated living quarters to ensure seamless service while maintaining guest privacy.
✔ Luxury yachts are designed with separate crew areas, ensuring you and your guests enjoy ample space for relaxation.
✔ Larger vessels offer discreet crew access routes, so service remains unobtrusive yet always available.
✔ Yacht4Less assists in selecting the perfect vessel that accommodates both your group size and crew requirements for an effortless luxury experience.
