Do I need qualifications to charter bareboat?

In the Mediterranean yes, a minimum of a Day Skipper, ICC or an ASA104 will suffice, however this is dependent on the destination and the company. For the Caribbean you require experience on similar sized vessels, which can be backed up. Please contact one of our brokers to find out what qualifications or experience you require.

  • I have used Hinde and Kitch on three occasions now and they have never disappointed. They go above and beyond to help with whatever is needed. Their guidance and professionalism is unparalleled, finding the perfect boat for our group and suggesting three fantastic spots for our holidays. We even got a yacht upgrade last year!

  • Have Chartered with H&K for a few years now and only had good experiences. The attention they give you makes it feel like you’re their only customer. Nice when the broker is so excited about your holiday that it feels like they’re coming on it with you!
