We specialise in high-end luxury yacht charters in South East
Asia. As your central agent we endeavor to get the very best from your yacht through careful management
and marketing to get the most out of your chartering potential.
Acting as your central agent we can offer...
Charter Agency Services
We would act as a central booking office and add your yacht to our select group of charter yachts working
with established reputable world-wide brokers.
Promoting Your Yacht
Your yacht will be promoted to international charter brokers and specialist travel agencies. In addition,
she would be featured in our newsletter and on our website. We can also design a dedicated individual
website for your yacht.
Sales and Marketing Services & Costs
All exposure on web sites & other electronic media must be accompanied by a high quality brochure for
your yacht to maximize marketing opportunities. We can provide information on professional brochure
publishers and photographers and recommend the best information to include. Moreover, we can offer advice
and produce design templates for other marketing channels such as flyer, editorials and translation of
brochures into other languages.
Individual attention
Naturally, we understand that each yacht and each yacht owners’ objectives and budgets vary and we will
develop a budget to suit. Fees for brochure printing, web-design and other promotional items are charged
at cost once the owner's approval has been received.
Contract Handling
We prepare all parts of the charter agreement, which clearly defines the responsibilities of the yacht
owner, charterer and crew.
Local Knowledge
With many years of experience in the local and international charter market, we can advise on the optimum
charter rate to make your yacht attractive, competitive and profitable. Additionally, our Phuket office
offers support services for locally based yachts and crews such as communication, mail service, fund
transfers, storage facilities, customs clearance, etc. We also have a network of offices in the region
that can promote your yacht.
Booking Procedures & Commissions
Most charter contracts are based on a "plus all expenses" rate. This means that the owner is responsible
for the fixed costs for the charter duration such as crew salaries, hull insurance, standard maintenance
and other operating expenses. The charter client is responsible for expenses during the charter that are
directly attributable to their usage such as dockage, fuel, food and alcohol.
Many charters booked are referred by a retail charter booking agent who represents the charter client.
This agent receives 15% commission plus our 5%, totaling 20%, leaving an 80% net return to the owner from
the charter fee.
The Captain of the yacht receives an advance provisioning allowance up to 30 days before the start of the
charter. The owner then receives 50% of the net charter fee at the commencement of the charter and the
balance upon successful completion.
Should the charterer cancel a charter, the procedure is that charter moneys are refunded to the client
only if the charter dates are re-booked. If the dates are partially re-booked the charter deposit is
refunded on a pro-rata basis. If the charter is not re-booked you are paid the charter deposit less
commissions. If the yacht must ever cancel or otherwise default on a charter, the commission on the
canceled charter is considered an earned fee and is owed to the charter broker by the yacht, as stated in
the charter contract.
A Successful Partnership
Meeting charterers’ needs requires good knowledge in a competitive market place. We are here to provide
the central link between the booking agent, the yacht owner and the yacht captain, so as to ensure the
smooth charter operations of your yacht.
