Chartering your yacht can be a cost effective way to cover the running costs, and for many owners it is also a time saving way to own a yacht. You can spend your time sailing rather than fixing! Step on board and you know that your yacht will be clean, fuelled and with full water tanks and a spare gas bottle.
