BAREBOAT CHARTER
We reserve the right to require instruction and/or a check-out sail for all our bareboat rentals. Remember our goal is for you have a safe and enjoyable cruise.

St. Petersburg Yacht Charters and Sales’ maintains a list of captains who have years of experience sailing on the waters of Florida’s West Coast.  You may choose from either of our three-crewed charter programs.

CREWED CHARTER
For those who just want to relax and delegate the work of sailing the boat to a professional, a crewed charter is just the ticket.  The cost for the crew is $125 per eight-hour day, $170 for overnight plus the cost of food.  We can suggest a caterer as well.

CHECK-OUT SAIL CHARTER
For those who need to sharpen their skills or get some help from a professional, try our checkout sail. Sometimes lake sailors need help with the docking and tie-up procedures used when dealing with the tides in our area.  Others have not handled as large a boat and need brief instruction on the handling of the vessel.  Whatever you need, we can help!  We may require a check out sail if we feel your qualifications warrant it.  The cost is $75 for a minimum of four hours and $18.75 for each additional hour.  The maximum fee is $125 for an eight-hour day.

INSTRUCTIONAL CHARTER
If you want to learn more about navigation, boat handling, or would like some lessons from a professional, take advantage of our instructed charter.  Our captains can provide you with some intensive training during your charter.  The instruction will cover everything needed to prepare you for a bareboat charter, depending on the time you have to devote to the learning process.  At the conclusion of your charter, we will write a letter for you suggesting your qualifications.  The cost is $150 per eight-hour day, $170 for overnight plus the cost of food.
