Charter Types

Skippered, Full Crewed or Assisted bareboat charters


Assisted bareboat charters

For self-skippered charters in Zanzibar, the yacht operator requires a local deckhand on board. This is known as an assisted bareboat charter: you remain the skipper, with an experienced crew member available to support you and your guests.


The deckhand knows the yacht, its systems and equipment, as well as the local waters. His experience is particularly valuable where nautical charts may be imprecise and tides can vary by up to four metres. He can help plan routes, choose anchorages, monitor conditions, handle lines and sails, assist with manoeuvring and anchoring, and operate the dinghy.


As a local, he also understands fishermen’s customs, speaks the language and has contacts who can help with supplies and activities. He can keep shared areas tidy and look after the yacht while your group is ashore. His knowledge and practical support help make the cruise safer, smoother and more enjoyable.
