Passport or ID card
The passport or identity card must be valid for at least 6 months on departure from Turkey.
Make sure that children have their own passport or identity card. You are at all times responsible for the correct travel documents.

Rental period
The rental period of the sailing yacht is on the first day of the rental at 5 p.m. (or earlier if the lessor specifies). On the day before departure, arrival at the home port is no later than 5:00 PM and the transfer will, depending on the flight schedule, on the day of departure. You can of course stay on the yacht until Saturday morning 9:00 o’clock. The yacht then has to be clean and empty as you received it. This way our cleaning team can start immediately.

On the spot
Check the sailing yacht before you leave. If you notice any imperfections or encounter problems during the trip, always immediately notify the flotilla guide of B&B Yachting.
They will do everything they can to resolve matters quickly and properly. If they unexpectedly fail to satisfy you, have a report drawn up. It is not possible to make a claim afterwards without written submission. Keep in mind that when you are outside of the home base, repair and supply of parts can take some time. If there is a serious defect in the rented sailing yacht, no complaint is possible if this defect is resolved within 36 hours after reporting.
The hirer must have sufficient (technical) experience to guarantee the safety of the entire crew. The hirer must provide the entire crew with proper information about the possible dangers on board such as operating the anchor, running engine, changing gas bottles, etc.

Flotilla
The renter must have sufficient sailing experience to participate in a flotilla. The flotilla guide provides information about the sailing area and offers – if necessary – help with sailing and mooring. The information provided by the flotilla guide never relieves the renter of his own responsibility. The tenant remains primarily responsible for his decisions.

Experience
By renting a sailing yacht, the tenant declares to have sufficient (sailing) experience for the rented boat. If it is found on site that a tenant does not have sufficient sailing experience, the lessor has the right to send a skipper for one or more days. The costs of this will be charged to the tenant.

Bareboat
If you sail bareboat you must have sufficient experience to be able to sail a ship fully independently at sea, to be able to moor, anchor and navigate on your own and you must have sufficient technical knowledge to be able to solve any minor technical problems. The tenant receives the sailing yacht after an extensive technical briefing. The tenant then sets off independently. All sailing yachts of B&B Yachting have sea charts, the “Turkish Waterpilot” and a Dutch-language board book from “B&B Yachting”. In this board book you will find, in addition to general and technical information about the sailing yacht, a lot of information about the bays and places in the sailing area around the home port of Göcek.
