A Charterer is a person or organization that charters a boat, aircraft, or bus. In your case, its a boat (obviously ;)).

The charterer plans the boat’s voyage (aka trip, aka cruise) and the arrangements for the handling of cargo (items, toys, belongings) during loading and unloading. As such, he is responsible for the safety of the ship/boat, its crew, and the cargo. The charter party is signed between the shipowner/boat owner and the charterer.

A valid and legitimate Bareboat Charter is an agreement where the Charterer (the person or organization that charters the boat) has use of the vessel (boat) for a period of time and is considered the owner. A charterer takes on the legal obligations, is responsible for the crew, passengers carried, and others.

Elements of a valid and legitimate Bareboat charter may include: 

1) The charterer must have the option of selecting & paying crew, although the owner may require general levels of proficiency for the crew that is retained based on federal statutes;

2) The master/crew are paid by the charterer;

3) All food, fuel and stores are provided by the charterer;

4) Insurance is obtained by the charterer;

5) The charterer is responsible for the safe navigation of the vessel;

6) A platform for events that does not involve consideration, even when moored at the pier; and

7) The vessel is surveyed upon return to the owner.

Yes. As the legal Charterer (boat owner/lessee), you are fully liable and responsible for the boat, crew, and anything else related to the charter for the term of the booking no matter what happens. 

Yes, you're both responsible and liable for the crew, boat, and anything else related to your booking.

No, that is why you hired the captain or crew… so you don’t have to navigate or concern yourself with knowing where to go or knowing marine rules etc. The captains from our list are all very experienced and know our waters very well.

No. Again, as the valid Charterer; the owner of the boat for the term of the booking… you are fully responsible and liable for everything; yourself, your passengers, your crew or captain, everything on the boat etc.

Yes, you are the Charterer so you own the boat for the term of the booking. Meaning, you are fully responsible and liable for anything that happens. You don’t have to fix the damage yourself, however, we will charge your card on file for the cost of repairs.
