Yacht Charter Croatia Tips

Chartering a yacht in Croatia is growing each year and is fast becoming one of the most favorite vacation options for thousands visiting Croatia in the summer. As the number of people chartering a yacht in Croatia grows, the competition between charter providers grows simultaneously. This has led to improving charter offer and the services that are accompanied to yacht charter in Croatia.

When you prepare for the yacht charter vacation in Croatia, I would suggest that you leave your car at home. Driving the whole day from your home to charter marina can be pretty exhausting especially in the summer season. When you add to that that once you arrive you must do all the vacation shopping and then you must be concentrated to do a proper yacht check-in, the first day of your charter vacation could end up being pretty miserable. If you choose to arrive to Croatia with your car you must calculate the parking fee for seven to fourteen days depending on the duration of your charter. The best option would be to arrive at Croatia by airplane or train and then use the taxi transfer from the point of you arrival to your charter marina. With Jam Transfer service you can book taxi transfer to and from your marina months in advance. This is a great way to budget your vacation because you can see in advance how much the taxi transfer will cost you.

Once you arrive at the marina where your chartered yacht is located at, you must do a yacht check-in. Prior to that you must leave the security deposit with the charter agency. Security deposit is the fixed fee from which the charter agency covers any damages made to the yacht while in charter. The yacht check-in process is the most important part of yacht charter. This is when you take over the yacht and go with the charter agency representative through entire yacht equipment. You will receive the yacht check in with all the equipment specified on it. I would suggest you take detailed notes on your copy of the check list. If the saloon table in the yacht is scratched for example, write it down and inform the charter representative that you made that remark. At the end of the check-in process ask the person with whom you did the check in to sign your copy of the check-in list. Why is this important? At the end of your charter vacation you will do the yacht check out. The person with whom you did the check in might not necessarily be the same person with whom you do the yacht check-out. The person with who you do the yacht check-out might point out on the scratched saloon table and inform you that the damage will be taken from your security deposit. Now you can show him your signed check-in list where you put the remark that the saloon table was scratched when you took over the yacht.

The last thing you must do is do all the shopping for your charter vacation. Do not neglect this step. The sea is unpredictable and marina moorings are scarce and you don't want to get stranded on the yacht with the empty fridge. It is not easy to do all the shopping on the same day you arrived at the marina after all the traveling you did to reach the marina. Especially when you add to the equation the burning summer sun and the fact that you usually have to go shopping on foot. It is easy to go shopping but returning from it with all the groceries can be quite a feat. This is where you can take the advantage of improving charter service in Croatia which is due to growing popularity of charter business. Today you can do all the shopping online, months in advance of your charter vacation, through online provisioning catalog. Jam Yacht Supply provisioning service for example has the online catalog of over five thousand products and everything you order through their catalog is awaiting for you in your charter marina.
