People who are about to charter a sailing yacht in Greece for first time, are not familiar with the terminology "bareboat" or "skippered" commonly used to describe the charter status of a sailboat and although the meaning is self explanatory, is described in detail here.
What is a Sailboat Bareboat charter? Is a yacht with sails in which you are the captain and is available to qualified experienced crews. Greece is the only country that insists on two members of the crew providing certificates. When you are booking a bareboat yacht, you must certify that you are experienced and competent in the handling operation of the yacht's size, type chartered, and that you have sufficient practical knowledge of seamanship and navigation rules. Bareboat charters are the heart and soul of sailing enthusiasts. They offer uncompromising thrills of navigating through the blue Greek seas exploring the magnificent Greek islands and their secluded beaches. Your fun begins the moment you start sailing. All you do is relax and watch as the yacht gently glides the Aegean Sea like a magic carpet, taking you swiftly to your islands of choice!
What is a Skippered Sailboat charter? Is a sailing boat chartered with a skipper. A skipper is very useful to have not only because of his experience but also if you sail for first time in Greece let some one else to take care of your sailing needs so you have more time to enjoy your sailing holiday.
