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 sailing catamaran like BLACKFISK, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price ($2,400 - $4,200), making the charter cost $14,400 to $16,200. 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.

| 3 day charter | 6,000USD to 6,000USD | 1,200USD to 1,800USD | 7,200USD to 7,800USD | The usual formula is the 7 day charter rate divided by 6, times the number of days (3). Boat policy might differ. 12,000USD / 6 * 3 days = 6,000USD |

Reviews
We had an incredible experience with Dustin and Josiah from Blackfisk, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Dustin’s professionalism stood out from the start—his deep knowledge of sailing and navigation gave us total confidence throughout the journey. Whether we were cruising open waters or anchoring in a quiet cove, everything felt smooth and expertly handled. Josiah impressed us all with his outstanding culinary skills; every meal was delicious, creative, and beautifully prepared. Beyond their individual talents, both Dustin and Josiah brought warm, welcoming, and genuinely enjoyable personalities to the trip. They created an atmosphere that was both relaxing and unforgettable. Truly top-notch in every way.
