Deposit

The deposit is paid the same day, prior to departure, and will be handed back upon return. Average deposit for a yacht 2008 was € 1500 but depends on the size and price of the yacht. It is refunded back in full in case the yacht is returned undamaged. Deposit is always paid by the customer (even if you have an “external” skipper onboard).
There are 2 ways to put a deposit:
1. Creditcard/Debitcard
Credit card: The amount is reserved from your card upon departure and released when you return the yacht. (no money withdrawn from your account)
Debit card. The amount is charged from you card upon departure and released when you return the yacht.
2. Cash
You pay the deposit cash before departure, at the end of the week you get the money back.
