How many Lifevests do you have on board?

 Onboard we need to carry a total complement of lifevests equal to the capacity of the boat (in our case 10, 8 passengers and two crew) plus an extra two of child sizes. We carry this compliment plus more, including infant jackets.

Yes. The number is calculated with the total number of people on board.

As long charters are normally a mixture of marina stays and anchoring we will mutually discuss arranging and pricing onboard provisioning. Marina fees, other than those of our home base in the Marina de Lagos will be added to the final price.

Cancellation Policy?

Half and Full-Day charters can be cancelled with a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For night and Long Charters we will require a 48-hour notice. For those who do not show up for their charter without prior communication, there is no refund.

In the case of meteorological conditions not allowing us to proceed with the charter, we will work with you to reschedule. In case this is not possible, a full refund will be given.
