Itinerary Ideas, Crew and Water Toys
Pampelonne, Cap Taillat or island cruising depends on time, draught, berth and weather. The captain decides. Shore restaurants and beach clubs require confirmed landing. Crew, tenders and equipment must be listed.
Reviewing a Saint-Tropez Superyacht Proposal
Start with legal and contractual identity: contracting company, commercial registration, insurance, crew, overnight and event guest limits, dates, delivery and redelivery. A well-known yacht name or photograph is not enough. Confirm whether the vessel is berthed, anchored or repositioning, and which port, tender, fuel, tax, agency and delivery charges sit beyond the base fee.
Separate visitors from overnight guests and obtain approval for children, pets, security staff, entertainers or outside service providers. Cabin allocation, crew accommodation and legal capacity cannot be changed informally. If the yacht is intended for a lunch or private gathering, document the permitted guest number, music, catering, boarding window and shore restrictions rather than assuming event use is allowed.
Build the itinerary from essential priorities and acceptable alternatives. Saint-Tropez, Pampelonne, Riviera ports and open-water passages can be affected by wind, anchorages, berth requests and heavy traffic. The captain retains authority to substitute or omit a stop. A beach-club reservation, restaurant table or event credential is separate and does not guarantee a landing position.
The onboard brief should cover cabins, meal style, dietary deadlines, beverages, laundry, internet expectations, tender service and water toys. Each toy requires confirmed inventory, safe conditions and any licence or instructor. Review cancellation, weather, damage, security deposit, advance provisioning and communications charges. REQUEST VIP must receive verified authority, live yacht availability and complete commercial terms before quoting.
Finally, connect flights, hotel and vehicles only to the confirmed embarkation plan. Tender boarding can require soft luggage and weather flexibility. Provide one lead guest contact and all requested documents by the operator's deadline; an incomplete manifest can delay or prevent lawful departure.
Due Diligence and Arrival File
Reconcile brochure and contract: yacht identity, flag, commercial status, contracting company, insurance, crew, cabins, overnight and event limits, delivery condition, ports and dates. Request payment milestones, cancellation schedule, deposit, damage process and the holder of client funds. Compare full estimates for positioning, fuel, tax, berths, tenders, agency, provisioning, beverages, communications, laundry, security and transfers.
Create the guest file for identification, arrivals, children, pets, dietary or medical needs, mobility, security staff and external providers. Confirm deadlines for the manifest and preferences. Each toy needs inventory, licence or age rules, instructor and suitable operating area. Each Riviera port or anchorage needs a current request status and alternative approved by the captain.
Before arrival, request the yacht contact, exact berth or tender point, luggage method, first meal, cabin allocation, emergency contact and transport plan. The handover must match the contract and latest itinerary. A signed preference cannot overrule safety, law, port controls or the captain's decision.
Connecting Arrival and Redelivery
Allow time between an aircraft arrival and yacht departure for immigration, luggage, road traffic, manifest control, provisioning and possible tender boarding. Confirm the operator's latest acceptable embarkation and late-arrival procedure. Before redelivery, keep a generous flight buffer and identify where guests and luggage leave the yacht. Share live contacts among the lead guest, captain, yacht agent and driver, but preserve separate payment and cancellation terms for every service. An aircraft delay does not automatically extend the charter period.
