Harbour and marine fee: amount according to the provider

Good to know on boardA boat is not a hotel – here is how your time on board stays relaxed.

A boat is not a hotel: A boat is neither a hotel nor a holiday flat: space, power and fresh water are limited, and everyone on board lends a hand. That is exactly the charm of it.
Equipment on board: Under way, the boat makes its own power and often its own fresh water. Generator, air conditioning, watermaker and ice maker run on seawater and, despite careful maintenance, can stop for a while. At sea and in high season a technician or a spare part takes longer than on land. A technical hiccup is part of life at sea – the provider does everything they can to resolve it as quickly as possible. Where there is internet on board, the connection may occasionally drop at sea.
Extras and water toys: Seabob, SUP, tender and other extras are gladly at your disposal. Like everything exposed to salt, sun and weather, they can fail now and then; an alternative is then gladly found.
At anchor: At anchor instead of in port is often the nicer experience: quieter and with a view of the water.
Fuel: Ask the provider before departure how fuel is charged. Wishes like «take us here and there» use fuel.
Security deposit: You leave the security deposit with the provider, depending on the provider as a pre-authorisation on your card or as a charge. After the return it is released, less any documented damage. Your bank may still show the amount for a few working days.
Toilet on board: Marine toilets are delicate: only toilet paper goes in, on some boats not even that. Hygiene articles please into the bin.
Times: Embarkation and return take place at the booked times. If you arrive later, the return time stays the same. Harbour clearance and weather can shift a pick-up a little.
