Frequently asked questions

What happens when I request a quote?
Once we receive your request, we will confirm the availability of the boat, as well as check for alternative ones. To ensure your experience is the best it can be, we may contact you to discuss your request in detail. Let us do the research for you - free of charge.
When can I get in touch with the captain/skipper?
The timing depends on your charter type. For crewed charters, we can provide the captain's contact details upon request. For bareboat charters with a hired skipper, you can request the contact information 1-3 weeks before departure.
What is the Charter Fee?
The Charter Fee is an additional, obligatory cost, which typically includes the end cleaning of the boat, home port fees, and linen & towels. The details of the charter fee differ depending on the boat, location and charter partner.
Are there any other costs I should be aware of?
There are marina fees and fuel costs which vary depending on the type, duration and location of your sailing holiday. Marina fees need to be paid at each marina you choose to dock overnight - the amount varies but you may be able to find this information in advance by contacting the marinas directly. Fuel costs depend on whether you’re sailing a motorboat or a sailboat. You can estimate fuel costs by double-checking your chosen boat’s engine, and the expected distance you aim to sail.

Why Rent a Catamaran or Powercat in Florida?

Crewed Luxury for Day & Week Charters: Florida is famous for its crewed charter experience. Hire a captain and crew for the day to serve drinks while you relax on the bow nets, or book a week-long vacation where a private chef prepares fresh seafood as you island-hop down the Keys.

  • The Powercat Advantage: Motor catamarans are incredibly popular in Miami. They combine the massive deck space and stability of a catamaran with the high speed of a motor yacht, allowing you to zip between South Beach and Biscayne Bay effortlessly.
  • Essential Shallow Draft: Florida’s waters, especially around the Keys and local sandbars (like Haulover or Nixon Sandbar), are notoriously shallow. A catamaran allows you to pull right up to the best swimming spots with ease.
Captain’s Insider Tip: Sandbars vs. The Keys “If you are booking a 1-day rental, focus on the vibrant local scene: drop anchor at a Miami sandbar, play your favorite music, and enjoy the water toys. If you have 5 to 7 days, let your captain take you south to the Florida Keys for a peaceful, nature-filled snorkeling adventure!”
