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 HBC, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€212,500 - €340,000), making the charter cost €1,062,500 to €1,190,000. 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.

Crew

Captain: Bobby Groves

Bobby runs HBC with a calm, no-drama precision, turning 100,000 miles of sea time into smooth passages and clean, confident decisions for you and your guests. He reads coastlines like other people read headlines, so your itinerary hits the right bays, the right beaches, every time.
  • Has logged over 100,000 nautical miles at sea.
  • Has captained vessels up to 92m in length on private and charter programs.
  • Extensive experience in Caribbean and Mediterranean cruising grounds, including Antigua and the Amalfi Coast.
  • Currently working towards a Marshall Islands Unlimited License.

Daniel builds menus like campaigns: targeted, fresh, and engineered around what you actually want to eat, not what the kitchen feels like cooking. He moves from clean, healthy plates to high-impact tasting menus without losing speed or finesse.
  • Started professional kitchen work at age 15.
  • Trained and worked in Michelin-starred restaurants before joining superyachts.
  • Experienced in designing international, health-focused menus.

Nick is the guy who watches the weather when everyone else is watching the sunset, quietly tuning routes and tender runs so your day stays effortless. His racing background keeps the operation sharp when you want to play hard with the toys.
  • Former Team GB dinghy racer with advanced knowledge of weather and navigation.
  • Over 12 years’ experience on large yachts.
  • Holds Master 3000GT license.

Josh runs deck operations with the quiet efficiency of someone who’s done every job on the ladder, so guest moves, toys, and anchor plans all click into place without friction. He’s wired to engineer memorable days, not just safe ones.
  • Joined superyachts at age 19 and progressed from deckhand to Chief Officer.
  • Holds Master 3000GT license.
  • Holds an Unlimited Officer license.
  • Experienced in Bahamian cruising, including the Exumas.

Abby runs the interior like a global boutique, switching tone from beach-club casual to white-linen formal without missing a beat, so service always feels sharp and intentional. She uses HBC’s multiple dining spots to script each meal as a different scene.
  • Born in Amsterdam and raised in Cape Town, with professional experience in the Middle East.
  • Specializes in high-level, detail-oriented interior and service management.
  • Actively developing advanced knowledge in wine and culinary pairing.

Hannah stitches together onboard rituals and onshore stops into one continuous story, so your charter feels curated instead of improvised. She leans into the aft decks and local restaurants to give each port its own flavor.
  • Holds a degree in social science from Brighton University.
  • Previously worked nine years in London in financial fund management and the music industry.
  • Experienced in tailoring guest experiences combining onboard service and shoreside exploration.

Ian keeps the technical side invisible, which is exactly how you want it: no noise, no drama, just power, air-con, lifts, and toys working when you reach for them. He likes pressure, so breakdowns tend to give up before he does.
  • Initial training in motor vehicle mechanics after secondary school.
  • Holds a mechanical engineering degree.
  • Holds a master’s degree in philosophy for materials research.

Nikola treats HBC like a live engineering project, always tuning systems in the background so range, comfort, and reliability stay locked in for long, remote runs. His deep-sea and offshore history means he’s comfortable a long way from shore support.
  • Holds an engineering degree from the Marine University of Dubrovnik.
  • Licensed STCW Chief Engineer Unlimited with over 20 years’ sea experience.
  • Previously served on bulk carriers, heavy-lift vessels, and in the offshore oil industry.
  • Actively involved in yacht new build and refit technical projects.
