Your Charter Myths, Debunked

“A week-long vacation on a private charter? No way! I could never afford that!”  These words have been uttered by many dreaming wanderlust-ers, but the reality is that a charter vacation is not too far out of reach. Thoughts like these tend to stand in the way of people booking their dream vacations—wasted time better spent on the pristine beaches of the British Virgin Islands, right? To avoid more crushed vacay dreams, we’re debunking common charter myths. That’s right—no more excuses to put off your dream vacation.

 

MYTH 1: A CHARTER? I’M NOT A MILLIONAIRE.

The most common reason folks typically decide against a charter is the cost. Though a charter vacation isn’t reasonable for everyone, having a larger group of 6 or 8 paying guests can bring the overall cost down dramatically per person or couple (couples’ retreat, anyone?). Because the cost of a chartered crew is comparable to the total cost of a DYI vacation or a cruise when you factor in hotels, daily transportation, and all of your meals, you’re investing in the total experience. That’s right—we take care of it all for you. Impeccable service and views all included.

 

MYTH #2: A WEEK VACATION ON A BOAT? BORING.

False! We don’t do boring vacations. Some travelers who have never been on a charter may think that the vacation consists of sitting on a yacht in the middle of the ocean. The reality is, a charter vacation is just the opposite! Our experienced crew will plan daily itineraries based on your interests throughout the day, bringing you to the most stellar coves and snorkeling spots as well give you time to walk around the best beaches in the world. Yeah, not boring.

 

MYTH #3: IT’S TOO MUCH OF A HASSLE TO HIRE MY OWN CAPTAIN.

That does sound like a hassle. That’s why Mast Charter’s yachts come with experienced captains to guide you on your journey. Our captains are well-experienced sailors who are ready to show you the beauty of the Bahamas and the British Virgin Islands.

 

MYTH #4: I CAN’T BOOK A CHARTER—I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT BOATS!

Perfect! The best part about a Mast Charters vacation is that our crew will take care of everything. Yes, everything. No cooking, cleaning, or making your beds! We’ll guide you to your desired destination each day while providing only the best service—no boating experience required.
