Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a motor yacht like NORTHERN LIGHT, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price ($8,250 - $13,200), making the charter cost $41,250 to $46,200. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.

Reviews
Wes, Greg and Rachel were an exceptional crew. They worked very hard to deliver an outstanding trip. Very professional, yet kind and friendly. Wes is an excellent yachtsman. Safety was paramount, and we always knew we were in good hands. Our youngest daughter spent considerable time with Wes at the bridge, and learned much about the sea and boating. Greg's cooking was wonderful and we enjoyed his company. Rachel interacted beautifully with our family and took great care of us.
Northern Light was quite comfortable and she was spotless. Wes obviously takes great pride in her and keeps her in tip-top shape. Ventilation was never a problem.
We enjoyed the cuisine very much. Every meal was delightful.
We loved the area.
You were quite helpful in guiding us first-timers. I cannot think of anything more you could have done. We look forward to future charter adventures."
