Bareboat Charter Catamaran Checklist: Pre-Departure Inspection Guide

Checking out a yacht charter boat prior to embarkation is super important. As yacht charter agents, we see many times where the charter company will try to blame our client for something broken and try to make our client pay for the item. The saviour is to do a thorough check-out first, documenting everything with your phone camera. At NauticEd we have a full list of things to go through. It is free on our App under "Helpful Documents". You need to be a NauticEd student (it's free) to get access to the App . Sign up for free at www.nauticed.org. Planning a catamaran charter? Before you set sail, it’s critical to inspect your boat properly.
