Depending on which yacht, the published price of crewed yacht charter will either include most expenses (except for alcohol), or it will exclude most expenses (such as fuel, food, alcohol).
For yachts that use "MYBA" terms, the charter fee includes the charter of the yacht with all its equipment in working order, tools, stores, cleaning material, and basic consumable stores for engine-room, deck and cabins, etc., the crew's wages, food and the insurance of the yacht for marine risk and third party claims and the crew for employer's liability insurance.
However, the Charterer will be charged extra, at cost, for all other expenses. These include fuel for the yacht, fuel for the ski-boats or other tenders, food for the Charterers, wines, beers, spirits and soft drinks for the Charterers, other consumable stores, berthing dues and other harbour charges during the charter, and any local fees or taxes incurred during the charter.
Not all yachts use "MYBA" terms, however some do. Some of the yachts we represent have a price that is more or less all-inclusive (except for alcohol). MYBA terms do not apply to Cabin/Join-In bookings where the published rates are all-inclusive.
It is important, in order to budget correctly for a charter, to understand the terms under which the vessel operate. At Yachts Asia we will make sure we explain to you in detail the terms for the yachts you are interested in.
