CABIN CHARTER
CREW
Ocean Yachting
recognizes that the crew members are also a
key to making or breaking a holiday cruise.
Therefore, our skippers and sailors undergo
rigorous screening and tests as to their
ability in leadership before they are
accepted as part of our team in order to
ensure that they have the right aptitude to
perform charter cruises. We only use fully
qualified and experienced crew. We have an
extensive data base of willing crew members,
many of which have sailed with us before.
Most of our skippers and crew are Turkish
who have an extensive knowledge of cruising
grounds and local life.
Your captain will ensure that your cruise
moves along at a good pace. He decides on
departure times and meal times according to
the composition of the group, the day of the
week and weather conditions. The captain is
responsible for the safety of the vessel and
its passengers and has the right to alter
the itinerary when necessary.
Since the skipper is responsible for
everything during the sail, all your
requests are to be directed to him. The
skipper can accept your invitation for
supper or for a cup of coffee or a glass of
wine; and you, in your part, may ask him to
tell you how to steer the yacht, and even
try to do any interesting ship work.
Tips to the
crew are usually
10 percent of the charter
price. Nevertheless, the tip is at
your discretion, and the sum may vary
subject to your satisfaction with the trip.
Just hand in an
envelope over to the skipper before coming
ashore.
