Chartering a Boat: Sail and Power - Sheridan House (Hardback)

Whether you want to charter alone (bareboat), with a skipper (crewed) or in a group (flotilla), Caswell offers advice on everything from choosing the right cruising area, a good company and selecting a suitable boat (including sample costs), to dealing with common problems encountered on charters. Suitable for both novice and experienced charterers alike, this book gives an inside look at what you will need to know before you decide to charter a yacht - from sailing skills and how to gain more experience, to knowing how to pick the perfect charter and getting the most out of your trip once it has been planned. Caswell dispels the myth that chartering a boat is only for the rich, and shows us that for a reasonable price, anyone can enjoy the incredible sunsets, pristine beaches and afternoon sails on sparkling water.
