Frequently asked questions | Catamaran charter

Catamarans are all approved for a specific number of passengers. The number of passengers specified in our brochures must include your guests, your companions, your service providers such as the caterer, staff, DJ, photographer, etc … The crew is not to be deduced from the mentioned capacity. As professional and commercial vessels, our fleet undergoes annual inspections and have all the necessary and mandatory safety equipment on board. If the boat has as many lifejackets on board as certified number of passengers, it is not mandatory to wear them. They remain at your disposal in case of need.

Some boats offer BBQ buffets which are prepared by the crew, but you remain free to contact the caterer of your choice or bring your own supplies directly on-board. No corkage fee or service fee is applied. The boats’ furniture such as tables & chairs and kitchen & refrigerators are at your disposal as well as the crew who remains at your service during your cruise. It is however necessary that you bring your own crockery, napkins, tablecloths and any other element you may need.
