Charter questions

Why are prices shown without VAT and APA?

Because the yacht is the same but the tax and the spending are not. VAT depends on which country’s waters you cruise, and APA depends on how far you go and what you eat and drink. The charter fee is the one fixed number, so that is what every listing shows.

Our quotes always spell out the full picture: fee, APA percentage, the tax rate for your route, and what is and is not included. If a quote you get elsewhere shows one number, ask what sits behind it.
