    Yes, if you book a boat for 7 persons, but one of them is an external skipper, the price will be higher. The prices that are specified one our homepage are the price per person if you do not need an external skipper.
    You would have to pay 367€/person if you are six persons renting the boat. But since you are a crew with girls, you do not have to pay the cost for an external skipper (150€).

    When is the check out of the boats? What do we need to do before check out?

    You need to check out your boat before 9.00 am Saturday morning.
    Before the check out, you need to take out all your bagage, trash and left over food/drinks.
    If you have bought the "comfort package" (which we recomend you to do), the cleaning of the boat is included. You just have to collect all the sheets and towels that you have used and put them in a pile in on of the cabins.

    what would be the real total cost for a yacht for 6 persons includig all costs skipper, cleaning, dock in de harbours, gas, parties, etc.?; can we sleep in the boat in every island or do we need to book a hotel in some of them?

    This question is not possible to answer exactly. It all depends on how you wish to spend your money during your vacation. If you chose to have all your meals on board your boat, it will be cheaper than eating out every day. Or if you stay in harbours every night, instead of going to natural harbours some nights.
    You will all sleep on the boat every night. That is why you rent the boat. It's your floating home for one week.
    Please have a look at previous questions about harbour fees etc. It will help you to get a better idea of what the costs will be.

    What are the insurance conditions? We like to know who is responsible for what during the trip.

    The Insurance is issued by the Yachting Company and is a Kasko insurance (full insurance), also third party insurance and insurance for the crew.
    Insurance papers are all the time with the clients in the boat documents.
    In case of the accident – client need to call the Yachting Company and nearest Harbor master office (Yachting Company provides the phone numbers) to make a report. If the accident (damage) is cause by skipper’s negligence then deposit money is kept to pay for the damage.
    If it is fault of the third party then insurance is covering it.
    Deposit is the amount of the franchise. Please login to your booking to see the deposit for your yacht.
    A personal travel insurance for personal injury or disease is also recommended for all guests, that is done domestically with your local insurance provider, as for any journey.
    A document should be signed within the group in case the deposit is withheld. The economic responsibility shall be equal among the crew, the skipper shall not cover that himself. Also, the skipper does not pay part of the deposit.

But if you wish to sail on your own, and not with the rest of The Yacht Week participants, you are welcome to do that. It is not an obligation to follow the route that we have prepared.
    There is no 100% guarantee that all boats will find a space in every marina. So be sure to get sailing on time every day.

    What are the typical bar prices at the parties? Is it private parties(only the guest on the yacht week), or is it open to the public and other tourist?

    Hi!

    A gin & tonic would cost about € 3-6.
    A bottle of wine €15-25
    In general very low prices but 2 night clubs have slightly higher prices than the "local bars" at the Islands.
    Most parties are open to the local crowd of the Island but not to other sailing yacht tourists. Since a lot of people book yachts outside of The Yacht Week we can't let them join the parties as they aren't our customers + we have to stop bookings. (otherwise all weeks would over 100 yachts every week...)

    Food is up to what type of breakfast and lunch you eat. Not more than €10 per day I guess? Restaurants cost approx €10 - €30 with wine. It's very hard to predict your costs.

    Some crews eat all meals on board and drink most of their drinks on board as well. Others go for breakfast and dinner at restaurants + champagne at the night clubs.

    All I can say is that it's possible to go on a tight budget if you want to.

    What are your most popular destinations? Did you do Ibiza last year? I looked at your youtube videos and they are mostly Croatia and Greece.

    Hi, at the moment Croatia is our most popular. I think this is just because it is our longest running event. This is our first year in Ibiza!!!

    Are the trips all about clubbing? Are there other stuff to do if you don't want to go clubbing? Does the yacht just drop you off for the day and you decide what you want to do?

    These tips are not about clubbing (except for Ibiza which is slightly more clubbing). You can do what you like and when there are arranged parties they are "custom made" rather than visiting a big, commercial night club.
    There are a wide range of other activities that include:
    scuba diving
    vespa rental
    culture excursions
    private dining
    exploring the Island's

    If we need a skipper, how much will it cost per person for a crew of 7 persons to get one? do we need to pay only to pey extra for his/her food ?

    A skipper is €200 but free if you have girls on board! Yes, you have to pay for their space on the yacht, food and non-alcoholic drinks.

    Q12 regarding the fuel. Are the fuel costs included within the boat rent? To which airport do we have to go for the Greece trip? We want to rent the Bavaria 40 including a skipper. Is there a cabin in which the skipper prefers to sleep, or can we discuss this together with the skipper?

    No, fuel is separate. It can cost anything between €50-150 for the week.

    For Greece you fly to Athens

    You discuss this together with the Skipper.

    I was just wondering where online I can purchase the card to get me into all the clubs, in the pdf file it says it is 50 euros, please let me know, thank you.

    It is €50 in Greece and €60 for Croatia. The card is not yet available to purchase online but will be before your next payment is due so that the price can be added to this invoice

    In order to book a boat, does it need to be full to its max capacity of passengers?

    No it does not but you will still have to pay for the whole boat

68. Rating: +1

    

    Can one of the passengers leave the yatch the evening before?? i.e, the 20th evening, instead of the 21th morning

    YES. That's OK. Most yachts will arrive to the marina around 15.00-18.00 on Friday afternoon. You can decide yourself when you need to arrive in order to make sure that your passenger has enough time to catch his/her flight.

Unfortunately I can't meet up with my friends on the Yacht until the 19th because of a prior commitment in England.

    I'm joining a crew through facebook. How do I guarentee my spot is booked if someone else controls the roster? Should I be paying the person who is in charge directly or should I be paying the yacht week account? Do I pay the person in charge and they pay yacht week?

    Hi, you pay the booker who pays us. We do not take responsibility for this but if you send us an e-mail we can check that you have been registered on the crew list. You could also ask the booker if he would share the log in details with you,

    Hi, We are going to Croatia, does it matter if we don't buy the yacht week cards in advance? Also do we have to buy food before we go or do we buy it when we make each stop?

    It is best to buy all your food in Kastela on arrival day as this supermarket is the cheapest.

    The Yacht week card should be brought in advance. You can do this by credit card from The Yacht week shop on our website.

    For the Croatia Yacht Week, how many hours is it from port to port?

    This depends on the wind, if you sail or if you go by engine. It also differs from day to day but it should take no more than 4 hours, normally less.
