Every charter company works with a pool of professional skippers and crew, and you can hire them for your trip. With a skipper on board you can lean back, whether you are an experienced sailor who wants a vacation or new to sailing.
How to hire a skipper or crew
Tell us you want a skipper or crew, either when you book or afterwards:
- before or during your booking, tell your booking agent
- after booking, contact our customer support team
You can ask for the skippers' sailing résumés to see who is a good fit for your trip.
Book early if you can. Skippers and crew are often fully booked at short notice, especially in the busy season.
Good to know before your trip: When do I have to pay the skipper I hired?, Do I need to provision the skipper/crew? and Where does the skipper or crew sleep?
