Charter and rental: start from the right directory
Boat & Yard does not run its own fleet and does not broker bookings. This is an information section: choose the directory of yacht charter operators or the directory of smaller boat rentals, then compare offers directly at the source.
Chartering a yacht or renting a smaller boat?
Choose the type of vessel to go straight to the right directory.
Charter company directory
Compare yacht charter operators and check the terms directly with the company you choose.
Open the charter directory →Boat rental directory
Find companies renting out motorboats, RIBs and other smaller vessels.
Open the rental directory →Choosing a vessel
First decide on the crew, their experience, the route plan and the comfort you need on board. The type of vessel, the number of cabins and the equipment should follow from those decisions, not from the photos in the offer.
Costs and formalities
Set the total budget before signing the contract: besides the vessel rate, check the deposit, compulsory fees, fuel, berthing, insurance, cancellation terms and the requirements for the skipper.
Sailing areas and destinations
Compare sailing conditions, distances, seasonality and travel logistics against your crew's experience. The same type of vessel can work out quite differently in Masuria, the Adriatic or the Greek islands.
Operators and platforms
Once you have chosen the dates and the waters, compare sources on the same terms. The directory leads to operators; it does not confirm availability, the contract, the deposit or the scope of fees. Confirm that information directly with the operator you choose.
