The importance of crew
When people think about a yacht charter, they picture the yacht first — the design, the toys, the cabins, the size. But anyone who has ever been on a truly great charter knows the truth: the crew is what makes the experience unforgettable.
A yacht can be stunning, but without an exceptional crew, it’s just a floating hotel. With the right crew, it becomes the best week of your life.
Why Crew Matters More Than You Think
A great crew anticipates what you want before you say it. They remember your preferences, they notice the small things, they prepare toys before you even think of asking, and they turn simple moments into memories.
From the chef who personalises every meal, to the deck team who keeps the toys running, to the stews who create a warm, welcoming atmosphere — this is the heart of the charter.
You feel cared for, understood, and completely relaxed. That’s the magic.
The Yacht Sets the Stage, the Crew Brings It to Life
Yes, the yacht matters. The layout, the toys, the comfort — all important.
But without a top crew, the yacht can only take you halfway.
With one, everything becomes effortless.
The best charters are always the ones with crews who genuinely love what they do.
Tip Them Well
A great crew works from sunrise to well past midnight. They clean, prepare, plan, coordinate, cook, fix, anticipate and deliver, often for seven days straight without a moment off.
If they made your week beautiful, smooth, or unforgettable — show your appreciation.
A fair gratuity isn’t just a gesture. It’s recognition for the people who made your holiday perfect.
