Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a motor yacht like SOUTHERN BELLE, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price ($13,500 - $21,600), making the charter cost $67,500 to $75,600. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.

She grew up cooking authentic Southern food with her grandparents, feeding a large family with food grown in the garden or sourced from the farm. Developing a love for travel at a young age, she has been exploring the world and incorporating new cuisine into her cooking for many years. After her first sailing experience in 2015, she found her passion for living and working on the sea. A woman of many talents, she studied Chemistry at the University of Georgia, then attended design school at FIT in New York while running a specialty coffee shop, and also spent six months in Italy studying abroad and learning Italian cooking. In her twenties she designed a small line of cocktail and party dresses before opening her own vintage clothing business in Seattle, WA.
Her love of travel and exploring eventually landed her on a boat in Croatia, where she fell in love with the sea. Charli began cooking on sail boats 8 years ago, beginning with small private charters in the Mediterranean. She has worked and sailed in Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, Italy, Bahamas, the San Juan Islands, the US & British Virgin Islands, as well as the southern Caribbean.
