When the oceans are rough we must take the Intracoastal route to save on fuel charges. Taking the Intracoastal route to Haulover Sandbar is a great place to anchor with larger yachts further away from the main sandbar where smaller boats congregate. This sandbar is very popular with local boaters. Because of the location, this route is not suggested for charters under 6 hours.
A charter agreement serves as a crucial contract that outlines the terms and conditions of your Fort Lauderdale yacht charter. This legally binding document ensures that both the charterer and the yacht provider understand their responsibilities, covering key details such as the vessel specifications, rental duration, payment terms, liability coverage, cancellation policies, and operational guidelines. By signing the charter agreement, guests can enjoy peace of mind knowing that their trip is structured, transparent, and in full compliance with maritime regulations, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience on the water.
A Captain and Crew Agreement is a formal contract that establishes the relationship between the charterer and the captain and crew for a private yacht charter in Fort Lauderdale. Since all our charters operate as bareboat charters, guests must hire a licensed captain and any additional crew separately. This agreement ensures that the captain and crew are responsible for the safe operation of the vessel while outlining their duties, compensation, and expectations for the duration of the charter. It also clarifies that the charterer, as the temporary vessel owner, has full discretion in selecting their captain and crew while following U.S. Coast Guard regulations.

For the safety and comfort of all guests, smoking is not permitted on our yacht charters. This policy includes both indoor and outdoor areas of the yacht, such as the deck, cockpit, and swim platform.
