Bareboat Charters are a skipper-yourself type charter. Some level of boat handling ability is helpful but most of the better Bareboat charter companies offer a very comprehensive "briefing" on the first day to familiarise you with the vessel and the area.

Bareboat Charters are one of the great ways to experience the Whitsundays with friends or family. No experience necessary. Whether you are after a secluded romantic getaway or a more adventure packaged holiday, a bareboat charter accommodates for all types. You can explore beaches, Island Resorts, fringing reef and National Parks at your leisure. For those with experience, maybe take a performance yacht to get the heart pumping. Great trade winds for most of the year will give you some great sailing opportunities, or take it slow and enjoy the scenery.

Charterers with less experience have the option of taking a skipper onboard for one or more days. Giving you the chance to learn the ropes before taking the helm and heading off into the blue yonder. Or maybe a motor cruiser would be more your style, no ropes & sails to worry about.

There is such a large choice of vessels available depending on the size of the group and experience you are after. The small sailing yachts, motor cruisers and catamarans take between 2 - 6 passengers onboard. The larger yachts and catamarans can take up to 10 passengers.
