The Cost of chartering our motor yacht in the Solent
There are no additional charges when chartering with us. Single day mid week charters without overnight accommodation are normally £1,800. Friday, Saturday and Sunday charters are £2,000. Certain dates and itineraries may attract a premium.
We do still have availability for summer 2021 and can sometimes accommodate late notice charters. Call us on 07525 622268 to discuss your requirements.
The Charter price includes:
- Exclusive use of the motor yacht.
- Skipper and crew member.
- Drinks and snacks throughout the day
- Afternoon Cream tea
- All mooring fees incurred during your trip
- Fuel *
- Cleaning
- Vat where applicable
What doesn’t the price include:
- Any meals taken ashore
* Fuel - We include the cost of fuel in your charter when taking a typical itinerary. Should your chosen itinerary take us further afield we reserve the right to charge a fuel supplement. You will be made fully aware of any surcharge at the time of planning.
When considering outright ownership costs chartering makes a lot of sense. Spend your time on board enjoying the company of friends and relaxing rather than worrying about the technical aspects of arriving safely in one piece and getting moored up.
