FAQ

Am I allowed to use the yacht’s water sports toys and scuba diving equipment during my Chicago yacht charter?

In some countries, a Certificate of Competence is necessary to take part in water sports (jet skis, wave runners and other mechanically propelled watercraft). Please think about who in your group will want to use the motorised water toys aboard the Palm Beach yacht. We may arrange for a Bluewater instructor to come on board the yacht during the charter to award a certificate if they don't have the necessary licences or certificates. Please be aware that the availability of local teachers cannot be guaranteed, and all tuition payments are for the charterer's account. In certain places, it is completely illegal to use motorised water toys. Personal watercraft use is only allowed if the user complies with local operating laws and has the necessary licence.

Can I bring my own food and alcohol on board the Chicago yacht charter?

For your Chicago yacht charter, you are typically allowed to bring your own food and drink. Alternatively, you can contact your broker to arrange for drinks to be delivered to your boat before you set sail. If you would like to have a chef on board, contact your broker and they will arrange this for you.

Can I choose the food and drink served on board my Chicago yacht charter?

Most Chicago yachts come supplied with ice, waters, and soft drinks for your yacht charter. You may always bring your own food and drinks on a Chicago yacht charter, or you can ask your broker to make arrangements to have food and drinks brought to your yacht before you set sail. Another choice is to hire a chef to prepare meals for you while you're on your yacht charter.

For the crew to properly stock the boat for multi-day (term) charters, you must fill out a meal preferences form. This for masks for information on the meals you would like cooked for your charter as well as your food and beverage preferences.
