For 1-2 day charters, the rate usually includes transportation to the pier, fuel, food, and drinks.
For longer charters, pricing typically follows the APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) model. The charter rate covers the yacht, its equipment, crew, and marine risk insurance. Expenses like food, drinks, fuel, port fees, customs clearance, utilities, laundry, and return transfers are covered by the APA, which is payable 1 month before the voyage and usually amounts to 10-30% of the charter fee. These funds are given to the captain to provision the yacht before your arrival.
