GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS FOR OVERNIGHT YACHT CHARTER & BARE BOAT CHARTERS
Kreol Boats acts as an agent between you (the client), and the Owner of the yacht / boat. This means that your contract is always entered into directly with the Owner and not with Kreol Boats. This is a similar relationship that you may have with a travel agent, who acts as an agent for an airline or hotel. We are entitled to issue charter contracts for all our Owners and also to receive payments on their behalf. All specifications and other information given by us are provided in good faith and with the authority of the Owner or their duly authorised representative. On the charter of a yacht the specifications and pictures provided by us are supplied in good faith and with the knowledge of the Owner or the Owner’s duly authorised representative.
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
We do not accept responsibility for any loss or damages caused to you as a result of the negligence or default of ourselves or any persons directly employed by us. The provision of this charter involves independent parties who are neither employed by us or under our direct control such as airlines, yacht owners, travel operators and handling agents. Moreover, the charter may unfortunately be disrupted by ‘force majeure” events such as fire, floods, storms or political unrest.
The agreement is entered into on the mutual understanding that we will not be responsible for loss or damage including inconvenience or disruptions caused by the acts or defaults of independent parties, or by ‘force majeure” events including the following:
- Travel – we accept no responsibility for and shall not be liable for any reasons of delay or cancellation of any flights, trains or ferries or any loss, damage or inconvenience, frustration, annoyance and disappointment, distress consequent thereon whether caused by the fault of a carrier concerned or by reasons beyond their control including strikes or other industrial action by any staff or personnel rationing or unavailability of fuel or other necessary supplies.
- Charter yachts – in the very rare event that you are not provided on arrival at your destination with the yacht that you have reserved, you will, wherever possible, be given an alternative. Should this be significantly inferior to that originally reserved, we will take reasonable steps to secure a refund of an appropriate part of the charter price. In no circumstances will Boatbookings be liable to repay you any monies nor shall they be under any liability to you in the event that they are unable to secure any payments on your behalf from the yacht owner or fleet manager.
CONTRACTING PARTIES
The charter contract is concluded between the client who charter the vessel (“Client”), Mediator who represents the Client (‘’KREOL BOATS’’) and the owner of the yacht, represented by KREOL BOATS.
THE BOOKING PROCESS
When you notify your broker (Kreol Boats) that you would like to charter a yacht or any boat for that matter, you will be asked to sign the Charter Agreement (either on paper or on our secure online site) and make the requested payment (normally 30% of the total charter fee) to Kreol Boats. The balance of the price is normally payable 30 days before embarkation, and the person signing the Charter Agreement guarantees payment on behalf of all those for whom the booking has been made. If the total payment is not received by then, we shall be entitled to cancel the charter. Should you book less than 30 days before departure then the full price (100%). of the charter is payable upon booking.
CHANGES TO YOUR BOOKING
Kreol Boats will always try to arrange alterations, such as extensions or date changes, that you may request after the Charter Agreement is formed but may have to charge an administration fee. If no alternative can be arranged the original Agreement is legally binding and will stand.
BOOKING CONFIRMATION
From Client’s side, the booking intention is confirmed when advance payment is paid by Client. From the Company’s side the booking will be confirmed when full amount of advance payment lands on its account and Booking confirmation is issued from Kreol Boats to Client.
PAYMENT METHODS
After the yacht charter reservation has been agreed, which will be effective in writing only, the payment is to be done according to the following calculation:
- 30% for advance payment at the time of yacht reservation
- 70% of balance not later than 1 month / 30 days prior to yacht charter
All payments have to be done according to payment instructions listed in the Pro-forma Invoice which will be provided by Kreol Boats to the client .

OTHER CHARTER FEES
We attempt to list the costs as completely as possible on the site and in our proposals to you. However, some costs may change depending on your itinerary and desires. Here is a general guideline for estimating costs of a charter:
- Sailing Boats: The charter fee generally covers the boat, charts/maps, and a dingy/tender. There is often a charge for linens (if you want to use theirs), and almost always a mandatory final cleaning fee, ranging from €50 to €150 depending on the size of the boat. In some cases you may also be charged a small amount if you want a motor for the dinghy (if you’re not sure, ask us and we’ll confirm). Beyond this, the major costs are provisioning, fuel and mooring fees.
- Motor Boats: For small motor boats, the major additional cost beyond the base charter fee will be fuel – fuel is rarely included in the charter price, unless specifically stated. We try to list on the site the fuel consumption per hour for each boat – although this can only be a guideline because wind, waves, speed, etc all affect fuel consumption.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES – EXTRAS
Additional services and extra equipment for which an extra payment shall be done (hereinafter: Extras) in accordance with the effective Price List (e.g. auxiliary engine, one-way options, transfers, gennaker, skipper, etc.) should be requested by Client and agreed prior to booking confirmation. Client may ask for addition of certain Extras even after the booking confirmation, and the Company will undertake reasonable effort to provide the newly requested extras to the satisfaction of Client, and will inform the Client if it is possible to upgrade the booking with requested new Extras or not. Client acknowledges that Kreol Boats is not obliged to provide newly requested Extras at that point in time. At the latest, all Extras must be confirmed by both sides in writing not later than 5 days prior to the beginning of the charter date.

Please see Cancellation terms below.
- Reduced Deposit Structure in the event of damages, loss and negligence. For every boat charter with or without skipper the client has to provide a deposit to the equivalent amount of the chosen vessel prescribed in the contract.

In this category of cancellations are also the situations when the Client does not come for the check-in (non-show-up case), or when the Client leaves the Vessel prior to the contracted check-out time (early- abandon case) – in all such cases the 100% cancellation fee applies and Client does not have a right for any refund.

SECURITY DEPOSIT
Before taking over the Vessel, the Client must provide a security deposit (hereinafter: Deposit) in amount according to valid Price List of Company. The Deposit may be given either in cash or with one of the credit cards accepted by Company. After the completion of yacht charter the whole Deposit shall be repaid to the Client, unless some Vessel damages or loss of equipment have occurred, or unless the Client or its crew have not acted in accordance with these terms. However, if the damages or breach of these Terms have occurred, then Deposit will be retained partly or fully, depending on size of the Damage or breach:
- In case of a larger damage or breach, Deposit shall be kept in full and Client has no right for refund.
- In case of a smaller damage or breach, Company will keep the amount needed for the repairs and purchase of damaged or lost equipment, covering of intervention costs, plus 100 EUR of handling costs, while the rest of the Deposit shall be refunded to Client.
- In case if the Vessel will not be capable to go to next charter due to the incurred damages, always the full Deposit shall be taken, due to the fact that Company shall have expenses related to remunerating the next client.
Paying deposit is obligatory also in cases when Client hires a professional skipper from Company. In such a case the Deposit cannot be used for covering the costs which emerged due to skipper’s negligence, bad operation of the Vessel or its equipment.
In case if the damage has happened due to gross negligence of the Client, or behaviors such as sailing under influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, sailing single-handed or sailing at forbidden times or outside of approved areas, or participating in regattas without written approval of Company, or similar serious breaches of these Terms, the Client shall be liable even beyond the amount of the Deposit, including expenses connected to repairs and remunerations for lost charter income in the next weeks. In such cases the Client is liable to cover those expenses without delay, and latest within 30 days from the end of the charter period.
In case of lost equipment such as dinghy, outboard engine or similar, the Client is liable to Company for the full price of the lost items. These must be paid to Company within 7 days from the end of the charter period. When chartering a bareboat yacht, you are liable for any damage to the yacht, its equipment or third party damage. Assessment of the damage will be made and deducted from the security deposit paid at the beginning of the charter. We will take reasonable steps on your behalf to arrange for the balance of the deposit to be returned to you as soon as possible after the charter and usually within 28 days. However, should damage be caused as a result of willful negligence by a client or as a result of not obeying the instructions of ourselves or the yacht owner, then you will be liable for the full amount or replacement. Adults will at all times be responsible for the actions of minors in their charge.
Lower the Security deposit
Clients have the opportunity to purchase extra cover especially in instances where the can reduce their risk of having any funds being deducted from the deposit except for no refueling & fresh water.

In particular, Client accepts the sole responsibility for the Yacht use, and waives each and every responsibility of Kreol Boats and the vessel, including in situations such as possible accidents and injuries of the Client and/or crew members, regardless of the reason of their occurrence, as well as any possible damages on the Client’s and/or crew members’ personal belongings, as well as the situations when the belongings are missing or lost, either during the Yacht charter or after the Yacht check-out.
All vessels have been hull insured and have the appropriate insurance policies against damage towards persons and against damage towards third parties. The sails are not covered by insurance policy and the Client bears the costs of any kind of sails damage. The insurance does not cover damages of Client’s personal property and property brought to the Vessel, nor any deliberately caused damage, nor any damage caused by Clients’ lack of diligence. It is strongly recommended that, upon booking, Client and all crew members should contract adequate travel and health insurance packages for their travel arrangement.
BAREBOAT QUALIFICATIONS
In order to charter a bareboat yacht, most countries require a licence permit, certificate of competence or a letter from a recognised Yacht Club certifying the competence of at least the Skipper and sometimes one other member of the crew. Your broker will let you know the specific requirements in your charter area. The Yacht Owner reserves the right to place a skipper on the Charter Yacht, at the cost of the client, if they deem your qualifications to be insufficient and that there is a risk of damage to the yacht or endangerment of the passengers.
TAKING OVER THE VESSEL / CHECK-IN
The Client is obliged, on the occasion of taking over the Vessel, to give to the representative of Company a verified voucher with all Client’s data and charter appointment, with an insight into the original document of the skipper’s license. Also, identification documents (e.g. passports) of all guests on board must be provided for the purpose of re-checking the crew list. On the occasion of taking over the vessel the Client shall examine the inventory list with the representative of Vessels Owners and / or Kreol Boats representative, confirming the condition of the delivered Vessel with his signature.
The same procedure shall be done with instruments aboard. Any possible Client’s subsequent complaints would not be accepted if the Client confirmed that the Vessel was in order and that the Vessel’s equipment was complete and in order as well. Possible concealed faults and absence of the equipment that Company was unaware of during the take-over of the Vessel do not entitle Client to require the charter price deduction. Should any of the Vessel’s parts be damaged or lost during the previous charters, and if it is impossible to obtain the new Vessel parts prior to the date of the new charter, provided their loss will not seriously affect the security of navigation, it will not be possible for the Client to give up the charter or to demand a reduction of the charter price. Client acknowledges that such situations are not under influence of Kreol Boats, but are consequence of damages made by a previous client. The Vessel is to be delivered with full fuel and water tank, and it has to be returned to the charter base in the same state with a full fuel and water tank. Due to the fact that Vessels are expensive property and a certain level of skill is needed to operate them, Kreol Boats / Vessels owner may require from Client (or their skipper) to demonstrate their navigation skills in presence of a representative of Kreol Boats / Vessels Owner. The costs for the stated demonstration (if any) shall be paid by Client and the time spent for testing shall be included in the charter period of the Vessel. Should it be considered that the Client (skipper) is not skilled enough, Company shall hire an official skipper and the required costs for such a service shall be paid by Client according to the current Price List. If the Client refuses the assigned skipper, s/he will be forbidden for sail out, the contract shall be immediately terminated and the paid amount shall be kept without any rights of reimbursement.
TAKING BACK THE VESSEL / CHECK-OUT
On the occasion of returning the vessel and rechecking the vessel according to the inventory list, the fuel tank shall be examined too. If the fuel tank is not full, the Client must pay for the fuel (calculated according to the maximum motor consumption for specific motor hours) plus 50 EUR service fee. Also, Client shall pay for damages on a Vessel as described in these Terms, if any damages are found during the Vessel’s examination, as described in the “Safety Deposit” section. Otherwise, if the Vessel is returned in a good state and a full fuel and water tank, the whole Deposit shall be returned to the Client. Should the Client take back the Vessel to a port that is not stated in the contract as the destination port, the Client must pay all costs included in the Vessel’s transport to the destination port, including all remuneration costs for the next client of the Vessel, plus a penalty fee of 300 EUR.
Similarly, if Client is overdue, s/he will be fined – every delay longer than 3 hours shall be fined with double daily charter price, plus all the costs emerged due to the impossibility of the Vessel’s delivery to next client.
Running behind schedule owing to weather conditions is not justified because it is necessary to keep the vessel at an appropriate distance from the charter base during the last 48 hours before the charter ends. If the Client wishes to prolong the period of charter, whatever the reason may be, s/he should immediately inform Kreol. Boats about his/her intentions. Company shall in return inform the Client whether the desired prolongation is possible or not, and, if the prolongation is possible and confirmed, and the Client has paid for it, will organize for all the necessary paperwork for additional days.
SAILING AREA
The sailing area of the Vessel is within the territorial waters of the Republic of Seychelles
DAMAGES DURING YACHT CHARTER
Should any damage emerge during the yacht charter and be repaired within 24 hours from Client’s notification to Company, the Client has no right to request any reimbursement. However, if the repairing of the damage has taken more than 24 hours, and the damage was so severe that Client could not use the Vessel meanwhile, then Client can request reimbursement at pro-rata basis for this period. Reimbursement can be obtained only if the damage was a responsibility of Vessels Owner / Kreol Boats, such as improper maintenance level below industry standards. If the damage could not be repaired at the spot and immediate return to the charter base was required, the repair should be organized primarily so that the Vessel can be repaired in time for the next clients. Costs for the lost days shall be refunded only if the damage was caused by Vessels Owner / Kreol Boats. Otherwise, Client cannot expect any reimbursement of the stated costs and shall be liable to cover additional costs for finding a new vessel. If severe damages, engine troubles, loss of Vessel, personal injuries and similar incidents would happen, the Client is liable to inform Company about it without delay, and to obtain official minutes and certification on the emerged incident by other parties (e.g. port authority, physician, authorized expert, etc.). Damages which were not reported and have no recorded minutes shall be considered to have emerged owing to the Client’s negligence, and in such a case they have to be paid by the Client.
