What could be a better way to spend your next vacation than on your own bareboat motor yacht zipping from island to island? From cruising around the blue waters of the Bahamas to exploring the shores of Corsica, bareboat motor yachts provide the ultimate charter experience. There are no sails to complicate the navigation, sit back, relax and let the engine do the hard work for you whilst you explore some of the finest waters in the world!
Types of motor yachts for charter
Power Catamarans
The power catamaran is a fantastic alternative to a standard sailing catamaran and provides the maximum space available on a boat. Power catamaran’s are also incredibly stable and easy to manoeuvre.
Bareboat Motor Yachts
As long as you are in possession of the right licences you are good to go on your own motor yacht. Motor Yachts are glamorous and cruise through the water with ease! Motor Yachts are sleeker and quicker than their power catamaran rival. This charter is perfect for couples or those wanting to test out a bareboat motor yacht before chartering a crewed motor yacht! You can add a skipper and hostess to a bareboat motor yacht charter for a different experience.
