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 PACIFIC MERMAID, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (NZD23,625 - NZD37,800), making the charter cost NZD118,125 to NZD132,300. 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.

Hi there! My name is Hannah and I’m from Auckland, New Zealand. Food has always been one of my biggest loves and passions in life. My chef career begun when I started to travel and explore the world. I began to grow my repertoire, and study different cuisines throughout my travels. I cook with the idea of food bringing people together, to celebrate, to interact, and to nourish themselves.

Food possibilities are endless, and I enjoy talking with people about what they would like to eat each day.
