Questions
How are the charters on this page selected?
They are the private yacht, catamaran and sailing charters from the register that clear the same three tests as everything else: the price floor, at least 50 verified reviews and a rating of 4.5 or better. 70 clear them today, out of the register's 520 experiences.
Are these boats private?
Yes. Every charter on this page is flagged by the operator as a private departure for your party. Shared cruises do not qualify for this page even when they clear the other tests.
What do these charters cost?
Starting prices run from $512 to $5,500, median $1,077, read from the supplier catalogue on 11 August 2026. The operator page is where the figure you pay is set.
Can Linen Harbour arrange the charter?
No. Each card opens the operator's page, and the operator handles the booking, payment and cancellation. We earn a commission afterwards and it never changes what you pay.
Which countries have private charters on the register?
14 countries today. The counts change when the catalogue is reread, and this page is rebuilt from the catalogue on every build.
What should be checked before booking a private charter?
The departure marina, the route the operator commits to, what weather policy applies, fuel and skipper inclusions, and the cancellation terms. All of it lives on the operator page linked from each card.
