BAREBOAT CHARTER POLICY
Bareboat Qualifications
Heritage Coast Charters requires that the charterer acting as captain be experienced and competent to operate a vessel equivalent to the charter yacht. The individual must certify in the yacht charter agreement that he/she can navigate utilizing nautical charts, and has a practical knowledge of seamanship, boat handling and “Rules of the Road”. A charterer not meeting these qualifications will be required to have a Transport Canada Licensed Captain as instructor on board ($300-$350/day) until such time as the instructor feels the charterer is capable of handling the yacht. Many charterers request a captain for instruction the first day, as they are moving to a larger vessel, from a sail to power vessel, from single to twin screw, or from a flush deck to flybridge helm. We want your charter to be safe, stress-free and enjoyable!
