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 power catamaran like BLUE DESTINY, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€4,000 - €7,000), making the charter cost €24,000 to €27,000. 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.

Crew Information
Captain: Giuseppe Di Maria
CAPTAIN - Giuseppe Di Maria
Since his youth, owing to his love of sport, Giuseppe has cultivated his passion for the sea and with over 14 years of experience sailing in the Mediterranean Sea, he has logged over 40.000 nm. That passion still motivates him in everything he does, in both his job and hobbies. The sea has taught him many lessons; humility and respect ; the ability to manage fear and consequently spread calm to others when necessary. A life on the sea necessitates good problem solving skills, considering the trade-offs and requiring flexibility, which enable Giuseppe to find the most practical solution. He has also learnt that teamwork is the most effective way to achieve a goal.
Giuseppe has also been a valued member of racing teams since 2011, for Bowman Pitman for example.
He speaks English and Italian
