PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE
Understanding your Yacht Charter Costs: Your charter will not include a 10% Bahamas VAT and a 4% tax.
Additional expenses? These are covered by the Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA), generally 35%-40% of your charter fee. The APA caters to your yacht and tender’s fuel, provisions, marina and mooring fees, transfers, permits, scuba excursions, onshore activities, communication costs, and local taxes.
When you board, your yacht is ready with everything you have chosen. The captain maintains detailed logs of expenses against the APA, available for review anytime during your journey. Should the APA fund exceed, the excess is returned post-charter. If expenses overshoot, you’ll need to top-up before disembarking.
Remember, crew gratuity (10%- 15% of the charter rate) is paid directly to your captain at the end of the trip.
