Terms and Conditions
Intermediary Role:
Please note that Cosmos Yachting always acts as an agent for the
charter company abroad. For our clients this means that your
contract is always entered into directly with the company abroad
and not with Cosmos Yachting. All charter companies represented
by Cosmos Yachting have the official government authorization to
charter yachts. We are entitled to issue charter contracts for
all our principals and also to receive payments on their behalf.
Cosmos Yachting provides a highly responsible and professional
service to both customers and partners. All bookings,
confirmations, agreements, changes and cancellations must be
made in writing.
Sailing License:
To be allowed use of a bareboat yacht, you will need a sailing
certificate (RYA Day Skipper certificate) for most European
destinations. In Greece, the co-skipper will also need a proof
of competence - RYA Competent Crew.
The port authorities usually only require an official license.
Cosmos Yachting requires additional proof of adequate sailing
experience, such as information about the number of miles sailed
or sailing school attended.
No certificate is required for flotillas. If you book a motor
yacht in open waters, you must have a motor boat license.
No licenses are usually required overseas.
Charter Bookings:
Your yacht is considered booked if we receive a down payment at
the time the contract is signed. The point at which the other
balances are due depends on the third party and may vary. In
Greece, it is mostly due upon embarkation; in other cruising
areas, six weeks before the charter commences.
Verbal agreements only take effect after written confirmation by
the charter company. Information is provided to the best of our
knowledge and belief. Errors can, however, not be ruled out.
Liability cannot be accepted in such cases.
The cancellation fee may vary, and the exact amount can be found
on the charter contract.
For all charter contracts and other bookings, the full fee is
payable on completion of booking, irrespective of whether you
actually make use of the yacht, and other services. We therefore
strongly recommend that you take out comprehensive travel
insurance.
If you need to withdraw from the contract for unavoidable
reasons, you may suggest a suitable replacement, who can take
over the contract. If this is not possible, the charter company
will try to charter the boat to someone else. Should this be
successful, then you will be entitled to a repayment of 80% of
the charter price. This repayment is calculated in proportion to
the contract for which a replacement could be found.
Beyond this, you have no claim or redress, so it is recommended
that clients take out comprehensive travel insurance. Such
insurance can be obtained through us; however, in accordance
with the general terms and conditions of the insurance company.
Cancellation charges may vary, and the exact amount can be found
on the charter contract.
Insurance:
All yachts are covered by hull insurance, depending on the value
of the yacht. Additionally, third party insurance is taken out
for all yachts. Please note that dinghies, outboard motors,
spinnakers and windsurfers are not covered by the insurance.
At the start of the charter, the client must pay a security
deposit in cash, banker’s draft or by credit card, to the
charter company. This deposit is used to pay for damage and
losses not arising from normal wear and tear, and not covered by
hull insurance. If the yacht is returned in the same condition,
the deposit will be refunded.
Yachts are placed at your disposal by their owners for your
sailing holiday. Responsibility for completing the trip is
exclusively yours. During the preparation for your charter, you
must take into consideration the weather conditions, as well as
the experience of the crew.
Yacht hand-over: All our partners do their utmost to ensure that
the yacht is handed over in a swift and timely manner. You
should, however, take your time to familiarize yourself with the
yacht, bearing in mind that damage may have been caused during
your predecessor’s charter. Repairing such damage may require
additional time and may, in the interest of your safety, delay
the handover. The time taken to hand over and return the yacht
falls within the duration of the charter, and does not extend
it.
If the yacht is not available at the agreed handover time, the
charter company is obliged to provide an equivalent yacht as a
replacement within 48 hours. You then have the option of
extending the charter contract by the duration of the delay
(provided the owner agrees), or being reimbursed proportionally
for the time lost. If it is not possible to provide a
replacement yacht within 48 hours, you will be reimbursed in
full, but without any claim to compensation.
All prices are usually inclusive of tax. Local taxes, harbor
dues, airport taxes, security fees and charges for the transit
log and the transfer are not included unless otherwise stated in
the price lists. You are responsible for meeting local rules and
other legal regulations, as well as observing passport, customs,
and license restrictions.
Our domestic and international partners reserve the right to
change, without declaration of reason and without notice, the
prices quoted in the lists. Furthermore, those local taxes and
fees included in the prices may vary due to fluctuation in
exchange rates, resulting in price adjustments. Charter
contracts already signed and completed are not affected.
All quotations of prices, technical references, and other
information are provided to the best of our knowledge and
belief. Errors and misprints cannot however be ruled out.
Mutual trust is the basis of yacht chartering. We and our
partners trust you, by placing a yacht in your care whose value
far exceeds the charter price.
In Greece, a compulsory standard charter contract is used, in
accordance with government regulations. The charter contracts
used by Cosmos Yachting conform with international practice,
although the wording may vary. We will be happy to send you
sample contracts.
Flight bookings: You can book suitable flight connections
directly with any of our fully bonded associated flight
companies, who can arrange all scheduled and charter flights.
Transfers:
If you wish, we can organise your transfers from the airport to
the port of departure.
Provisioning:
In order to make life easy, we can supply all the food you need
from quality local providers. To find out more, please request
our provisioning lists.
Insurance:
Besides travel cancellation insurance we can offer you tailored
insurance packages in partnership with Elvia.
Training:
In co-operation with some sailing schools, we can offer you
training programs lasting a weekend or one week. At the end of
the course, an exam is taken to obtain an RYA certificate.
