– A refundable security deposit has to be paid prior to embarkation, which varies according to the size of the yacht. Every yacht is comprehensively insured (against damage to the hull, machinery and/or equipment), including third Party cover, beyond a deductible excess figure. The refundable Security Deposit is held against the yachts insurance excess. In case of damage to the yacht or loss of equipment, the estimated value for repairs and replacement is withheld from your security deposit and the balance is returned to you.

– Some yachts (not all) have the option of Non-Refundable Security Deposit (Insurance) or/and the option of Damage Waiver which combines both (refundable and non-refundable). You can book a yacht with refundable security deposit and if the yacht has the other options (non refundable or damage waiver) you can change it to any of the other types even upon embarkation.

If the yacht doesn’t have these other options, we advise you to obtain insurance for the security deposit. Unfortunately, sometimes accidents or damages do happen even by the most experienced sailors. Insurance can be obtained via Pantaenius up to 48 hours before the charter start date. The “Bond Insurance Plus” package (140€) should be fine and covers the security deposit for your charter. Alternatively, it is possible to get insurance coverage for the security deposit via EIS.
