Solent Yacht Charter at Yachtforce - HambleBare Boat Charter Experience Level Required

Bare boat yacht charter is available for those who are familiar and experienced as Skipper with the size of yacht they wish to charter in tidal waters. The minimum of an experienced RYA Day Skipper qualification with UK charter or UK skippering experience or equivalent standard PLUS appropriate tidal experience having been skipper previously in tidal waters, plus a VHF operator’s licence, is required.  (We stress that you must prove / demonstrate  experience as skipper in tidal environments).
You will be asked for documented tidal mile experience / or a sailing CV along with other experience indicators such as previous charters, duration and their locations, size of yachts used, any yacht ownership plus the experience level of your First Mate.
We are then able to form an understanding of your overall experience and suitability to charter any particular vessel for any particular area / voyage.
If you are in any doubt about your experience level, your tidal experience as skipper, lack of paper qualifications then please discuss with us or drop us your sailing CV and we can then have a chat / take a view or ask our insurers to approve – your previous experience counts for a lot! Please understand that we are obliged to ensure that any person wanting to charter is experienced in the waters that they wish to cruise. For any racing charter we require your racing CV to be approved by the vessels insurers prior to acceptance.

If You Do Not Have the Required Skipper Experience in Tidal Waters
Please see here for our Skippered charters. It may be that you simply require additional instruction, mentoring or guidance that we can provide. You will then have additional skills to give you confidence to charter in UK waters. https://yachtforce.co.uk/yacht-charter/skippered-yacht-charter/
