The US Virgin Islands are just a hop away from the mainland US, with direct flights daily from numerous US airports, but the minute you get off the plane you feel the island vibe. Beautiful white sand beaches, amazing snorkeling trails and reefs, coupled with sunny days and cooling tradewinds make this the perfect destination for easy access from the US. The bustling island of St Thomas boasts some amazing shopping experiences while the quiet island of St John is full of history, with an 18th century sugar plantation and ancient petroglyphs carved into caves in the hills. Most of St John is National Park and the underwater trail at Trunk Bay is spectacular. Further afield lies the large island of St Croix, with its own blend of shops, restaurants and National Parks to explore. Your dedicated crew on your luxury yacht will immediately make you feel “at home” and cater to your every whim, ensuring that they tailor-make your itinerary to suit your requirements. You are guaranteed the cruising vacation of a lifetime.

A family group that we booked aboard 56' Catamaran Viramar in January 2022 said:

First of all, the trip exceeded our expectations in every way. We also do not feel like we gave up anything in not going to the BVI and only sailing the USVI. Yes, there were probably some great things in the BVI, but every day and every stop in the USVI was great. Hopefully, we plan to do another charter - where and when, we do not know - in a couple of years. Lynne, thanks for your help as well. Your communications and understanding of the COVID situation were great. Jeff T., Washington

All-inclusive crewed yacht charters in the Caribbean Virgin Islands

"We combed beaches, hiked and explored, sat at little beach bars, snorkeled, scuba dived, fished, and kayaked, all in 1 day! Not many places that you can travel for a week and have such a variety of activities at your fingertips."

Why choose the Virgin Islands?

Sun, fun, lots of crewed yachts to choose from, the ability to sail to a new anchorage each day and beautiful Caribbean islands. The Caribbean Virgin Islands, including the USVI (St Thomas and St John mainly) and the British Virgin Islands / BVIs (Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, and Jost Van Dyke, along with over fifty other smaller islands and cays) are one of the world's best sailing areas due to the number of islands, bays and sandy beaches all within close sailing distance, clear tropical water that offers great snorkeling warm temperatures year-round, quiet out of the way bays for snorkeling, relaxing and evening star-gazing and, if you’re in the mood, world famous beach bars.

The Virgin Islands is a great sailing vacation destination for first time sailors and families as there are many crewed private yachts available to charter and the light trade winds and protected bays make for a fun, safe playground for kids and adults alike.

Why a Crewed charter yacht?

"We had an amazing week. Everything was better than could have imagined. Thank you for all your assistance in setting us up with the perfect yacht and crew."

A crewed charter yacht in the Virgin Islands offers an excellent chance for you to have an adventurous yet safe and fully catered vacation with family (there's plenty for kids to do!) or friends (about half of charters are groups of couples or single friends). The crew takes care of all the menu planning, provisioning, cleaning, yacht handling, local knowledge and cruising itinerary while you can relax and enjoy every moment of your vacation time.

More information on the role the crew plays in a crewed yacht charter vacation.

Dining on board in the Virgin Islands

"The quality of the food and variance of the menu, was the biggest single surprise of the trip. We are a well-travelled group and the food was among the best we have ever had! Rich is truly an excellent chef, wonderfully supported by Lisa. The cuisine was amazing!"

Dining on board your yacht is an important part of a crewed, all inclusive charter vacation as it is a great way to enjoy your time together and relax while your meals are served al fresco in a beautiful Caribbean anchorage. The crew will customize a menu to your group's preferences and take care of all the provisioning, planning and details. The chefs aboard these private yachts are some of the best in the islands!

Dining aboard also allows you to spend more time in remote bays in the Virgin Islands that do not have restaurants.

You are still free to dine or get drinks ashore if you'd like to try out some of the Virgin Island's famous bars and restaurants.

Activities in the Virgin Islands

Chartering a crewed yacht in the Virgin Islands opens up a large range of activities including exploring the island chain (many locations are accessible only by yacht), snorkeling, scuba diving the wreck of the Rhone, hiking, sailing, kayaking, standup paddle boarding, stargazing, dancing at famous beach bars like the Soggy Dollar on Jost Van Dyke, swimming clear warm Caribbean waters, beachcombing along a deserted stretch of Anegada, water skiing or tubing behind the yacht's tender and board games & good times after a great meal aboard your private yacht!

Evenings in the Virgin Islands can be as lively or relaxed as you like - head out each night to the beach bars or enjoy the quiet sounds of the Caribbean waters in a secluded bay.

Wake up each morning and dive off the yacht for a swim, get out some water toys, catch up on some reading and relax or raise anchor and set sail to the next destination !

What type of yacht should we charter?

Sailing Catamarans

The most popular style of crewed yacht to charter is a sailing catamaran. Catamarans offer a broad, stable platform with private en-suite guest cabins and plenty of space throughout including trampolines forward and a covered cockpit with dining table aft.

In the Virgin Islands there are crewed charter catamarans available for many budgets and party sizes, starting from 44ft catamarans accommodating 2 - 6 guests on up to 76ft catamarans that can accommodate a party of 12 guests in 6 en-suite cabins plus crew. A sailing catamaran is the best choice for great value and comfort.

See some of our favorite crewed catamarans

Monohull sailing yachts :

There are crewed monohull yachts for all budgets starting at 45ft, Caribbean-styly economy vacations to well over 150ft sophisticated luxury charters. These yachts offer a classic sailing vacation experience. Monohulls tend to have less space than similar length catamarans although the trade off is great sailing performance, especially up wind.

See some of our favorite monohulls

Power yachts :

Luxury power yachts are at the top end of the price scale and tend to offer a high crew-to-guest ratio which allows for excellent service. Power yachts are able to get you about the islands swiftly and in style. They also have space for the every water toy and offer discerning guests the comfort of a high end condo catered by top chefs with the flexibility to cruise to any point in the Virgin Islands.

Where are the Virgin Islands?

The Virgin Islands are located at the top of the Caribbean island chain and are easily reached from the US mainland via St Thomas (STT - an approximately three hour direct flight from the East Coast) and Beef Island (EIS - connect through San Juan for direct access to the BVIs) airports.

A Destination That Won't Disappoint

The US Virgin Islands have been a United States territory since 1917. Its luscious beaches, white sands, and multiple islands to explore make it a popular destination vacation for many folks across the globe. It has three primary islands, St. John, St. Thomas, and St. Croix–but there are 50 little islands, cays, and islets surrounding the US Virgin Islands territory.

The weather, on average, is always a “beach perfect” paradise which has earned it the nickname American Paradise and made it a tourist destination that is visited all year round with no obvious off-season.

You can spend the day sunbathing, swimming, or relaxing in a beach chair or hammock at one of the islands’ beaches that are consistently ranked among the top 10 in the world. Or, if you prefer to enjoy the culture, there is plenty of food, shopping, and entertainment on the island.

Water activities are some of the favorites and the islands are not short of any, from diving, deep-sea fishing, sailing, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding to windsurfing and jet skiing. With more than 500 species of the sea, 40 types of coral, and hundreds of creatures inhabiting the sea there is much to do and always something to see on a US Virgin Islands vacation. You won’t be disappointed.

Ready to Visit the Islands?

The US Virgin Islands (USVI) are US Territories. This includes St. Thomas, St. John, St. Croix, and Water Island. However, if you want to sail to the British Virgin Islands (BVI) you will need a passport in hand.

Travel requirements to the Virgin Islands related to COVID-19 vary depending on if you are fully vaccinated or not vaccinated. For COVID-19 travel updates, restrictions, and policies, visit the Virgin Islands Department of Health website.

St Thomas Yacht Charters

St. Thomas is one of the most popular islands in the U.S. Virgin Islands for sailboat, bareboat, and yacht charters. While sailing near this island you’ll be delighted by the warm winds, wildlife, and water so clear you can see the corals at the sea floor. When you take your first steps on land, you’ll be greeted with the bustling streets, island music, and eclectic eating for both first-time visitors and seasoned sailors of the Carribean. 12 Knots offers a variety of boat rental options beginning at St. Thomas. Before you travel to the island, here is what you should know:

Sailing Conditions in St. Thomas

St. Thomas is in a tropical climate with calm seas and consistent trade winds. Wind speeds near St. Thomas average at 10 to 20 knots year-round, and the average north-east swell is around 8–9 feet. Most sailors enjoy the hot and humid climate due to the consistent winds to help cool you off at peak hours. The primary weather concern for sailors is the rainfall and potential for summer and fall hurricanes.

Best Times to Vacation in St. Thomas

Winter and spring are the most comfortable and safest times to travel to St. Thomas for your sailing charter. Hurricane season falls between June and November, which promises the greatest rainfall and potentially hazardous conditions on the island. For this reason, it is advised to schedule your sailing charter before June or after October. The spring and fall also offer slightly cooler temperatures while you explore the islands.

SUGGESTED US VIRGIN ISLANDS SAILING ITINERARIES

US Virgin Islands Yacht Charter

The U.S. Virgin Islands  form a territory pertaining to the United States which lies between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean. The three islands were formerly known as the Danish West Indies. With the British Virgin Islands, which are located to the northeast, the Islands form the Virgin Islands archipelago.

Saint Thomas, the capital of the USVI boosts one of the finest natural deep water harbours in the whole of the Caribbean. The terrain of the islands is mostly hilly and mountainous with few flat spaces. The highest point of the USVI is Crown Mountain which peaks at 474m.

If you decide to include the USVI in your itinery, you will find most locally based yachts include the customs & immigration fees within the crewed USVI yacht charter rate and also offer a free ship’s bar.

US Virgin Islands

The added bonus for US residents travelling to the USVI is there are plenty of direct flights to St Thomas (a duty free Island) where your charter yacht can be ready for boarding just 10 minutes away by taxi from the airport.

Normally you would then cruise from St Thomas stopping at the beautiful island of St John enjoying its marine park enroute to the British Virgin Islands .

The majority of charter yachts do not visit the third island, St Croix.

What do our Clients Say?

Our Charter Brokers

Why charter in the us virgin islands.

World-Class Diving & Snorkeling

The USVI is world famous for its clear, turquoise water ideal for underwater exploration, and there is a lot to see: Vibrant coral reefs teeming with fish, turtles, rays, and reef sharks. Chartering one of our many yachts featuring onboard scuba gear gives you easy access to some of the best dive sites in the Caribbean , including iconic locations like Trunk Bay , Buck Island , and the RMS Rhone wreck . If diving isn’t your cup of tea, the shallow waters of the Virgin Islands are also perfect for snorkeling or even exploring the reef from the comfort of a paddleboard.

Itineraries inc. both USVI & BVI

Our Yacht charters in the Virgin Islands often combine both the US and British Virgin Islands , offering a diverse itinerary and the chance to see more amazing destinations. Starting and ending in the USVI, charterers can hop across the border, with a quick immigration check-in, and explore popular destinations in the BVI such as Norman Island , Tortola , Peter’s Island , and Virgin Gorda . It’s worth noting that many larger yachts, even if chartered in the BVI commence from Charlotte Amalie Harbor in the USVI as the harbors in the BVI are too shallow to host large yachts.

Huge Yacht Selection

A huge advantage of the USVI is the diverse crewed yacht selection on offer. The only place that really compares is the Mediterranean, but on this side of the Atlantic, USVI is ahead. Whether you are looking for a catamaran , motor yacht , or a superyacht , we have it in the USVI. The USVI is especially a popular destination for luxury travel and in the last few years, we have seen a significant increase in larger motor Yachts to satisfy the many who are seeking a more extravagant charter vacation.

Getting to the USVI

Direct flights from major us cities.

A yacht charter vacation to the US Virgin Islands (USVI) is both fantastic and convenient. Positioned in close proximity to the US mainland, the USVI provides easy accessibility for travelers, with frequent  direct flights  from major hubs like Miami.

One of the distinct advantages of selecting the USVI as your yacht charter destination is its status as  US territory . This ensures a seamless experience for charter guests, as they encounter  no hurdles with border crossings  or unfamiliar customs procedures.

The familiarity with US laws and regulations ensures a smooth charter experience from beginning to end, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in their vacation with no stress at all.

STAYING ON LAND

Hotels & resorts meeting us standards.

For those looking to extend their stay before or after their yacht charter and explore the land, the USVI offers many accommodations that meet US standards  of luxury and comfort. Unlike the British Virgin Islands (BVI), where villas are more common, the USVI has numerous  hotels and luxury resorts operated by well-known US chains . This provides travelers with a familiar and safe option for accommodation.

TOP 5 BEST PLACES TO STAY IN THE USVI:

• The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas
• The Buccaneer, Christiansted
• Gallows Point Resort, Cruz Bay
• Marriott’s Frenchman’s Cove, St. Thomas
• The Westin St. John Resort Village

Types of Charter Yachts in the US Virgin Islands

Selecting the right yacht for your US Virgin Island Charter is crucial for planning the perfect vacation. Our team is here to provide expert guidance based on firsthand experience.

In the USVI, catamarans, motorboats, and larger luxury motor yachts are the most common options. Catamarans are the more affordable choice , offering more space compared to monohulls, their shallow draft allows them to navigate in the shallow waters around the USVI and the BVI, increasing your cruising grounds significantly. We are also seeing catamarans becoming bigger and more luxurious, and they are now starting to compare to some larger motor yachts in terms of space and amenities.

Motor yachts are the choice for those who wish to see more in a shorter time . The higher speed of motor yachts gives you more flexibility, and you can simply fit more into your itinerary. You can find motor yachts of all sizes, ranging from small motorboats suitable for bareboat charters to mega superyachts with luxurious amenities like jet skis , Jacuzzis , scuba gear , and onboard cinemas.

Our Charter Brokers bring extensive firsthand experience to the table, having served as crew members, captains, or chefs on yachts in the past. This firsthand knowledge equips them with the insight needed to assist you in making the perfect decision for your USVI charter.

When planning to charter a catamaran in the US Virgin Islands, there are two main options to consider: APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) yacht charters and All-Inclusive yacht charters .

When choosing between an APA yacht charter and an all-inclusive yacht charter, clients should consider their desired level of customization , budget flexibility, and overall vacation experience. Both options offer unique advantages, and understanding the regional differences in the Mediterranean and Caribbean will help clients make an informed decision to ensure an unforgettable yachting vacation.

APA YACHT CHARTER

An APA yacht charter is popular for clients seeking a customized, high-end experience. In this charter arrangement, the client pays a base fee for the yacht rental and crew. On top of this base fee, an advance provisioning allowance (APA) is added, typically around 20-30% of the yacht’s base rental cost. This APA is intended to cover expenses such as food, beverages, fuel, marina fees, and any other costs that might arise during the charter.

ALL-INCLUSIVE YACHT CHARTER

In contrast, an all-inclusive yacht charter offers a hassle-free experience with a set price that covers all expenses related to the yacht, crew, food, beverages, and activities. Clients can relax and enjoy their vacation without worrying about additional costs or budgeting for unexpected expenses. Nevertheless, the issues are the same as in a luxury All-inclusive resort – you can’t have a hot tub full of Moet…

Top Charter Destinations in The US Virgin Islands

Out of the many places we offer yacht charters, we are confident in claiming, that the US Virgin Islands (USVI) offer some of the most sought-after destinations in the Caribbean. From the natural beauty of St. John , with its secluded beaches, lush hillsides, and captivating hiking trails to the vibrant culture of St. Thomas , home to the bustling capital of Charlotte Amalie , there is something for every craving.

St. Thomas (South Coast)

Our Favorite Spots

Located on the northern shores of St. John, Maho Bay offers a serene retreat for yacht charters seeking respite in the beautiful nature. With its turquoise water and white beach voted “Visitor’s Favorite Beach “, Maho Bay provides an ideal setting for both relaxation and exploration. Charter guests can also enjoy activities such as snorkeling among vibrant coral reefs , kayaking, or paddleboarding along the coastline.

Our #1 recommendation for Maho Bay is a snorkeling trip to see the sea turtles and rays that feed in the sea grass just off the beach.

Along the eastern shoreline running out to the point separating Little Maho from Maho Bay Beach you will find patches of reef with a wide variety of corals and abundant marine life. The water is shallow (between 3 to 10 feet deep) , giving snorkelers easy access to the coral, which includes species such as purple sea fans, sponges, anemones, and hard corals like Mustard coral, brain corals, and Elkhorn. You will also find a diverse fish life , with many varieties of wrasse, damsel, tangs, parrot fish, angelfish, and lionfish.

Along the western shoreline between Maho and Cinnamon Bay , you will also find excellent snorkeling opportunities, with coral and fish becoming more plentiful further from the beach. Snorkeling in shallow waters ranging from 3 to 12 feet deep, even novice snorkelers can enjoy a variety of marine life. While snorkeling, keep an eye out for Nurse sharks , which are slow-moving and not a threat but should not be disturbed.

CORAL HARBOR

Located on the eastern shores of St. John in Coral Bay, Coral Harbor is a premier destination for yacht charters, offering a mix of natural beauty, cultural charm, and recreational opportunities.

FRANCIS BAY

Visit Francis Bay and you will find yourself on one of St. John’s longest beaches . This beautiful beach has calm waters and a lovely, sandy shore. On weekdays, this beach is not too crowded, and it is easy to find a private spot.

The Francis Bay Trail runs along the salt pond located just inland of the beach and is an excellent place for bird watching , especially early in the morning.

The best snorkeling in Francis Bay can be found on the eastern and western ends. They provide some ideal snorkeling opportunities . It’s not uncommon to see green sea turtles near the seagrass beds on this part of Francis Bay Beach.

You can also find other marine life common in the Virgin Islands like rays , colorful fish like honeycomb cowfish and butterflyfish, and plenty of coral. If you’re lucky you might catch sight of squid. You need to diligently look out for them as they’re not always easy to spot among the many different places in the Virgin Islands National Park.

Cancellation Policy

Minimum # of nights, payment schedule, request confirmation, terms and conditions, charter experts, llc terms & conditions.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (“ Terms ”) CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS AS WELL AS A SECTION GOVERNING THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF DISPUTES. THESE TERMS ALSO CONTAIN A LEGALLY BINDING RELEASE, WAIVER OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK. By creating a username, a login, clicking submit, using the services of Charter Experts, LLC d/b/a Virgin Island Sailing® (“ Broker ) or by accessing Broker’s website, you agree that you have read, and acknowledge your acceptance of these Terms. The Terms are subject to change at any time without notice at Broker’s sole discretion. Additionally, any transaction for which you have made payment shall be governed by the form of Terms in effect at the time of such payment notwithstanding any subsequent changes hereto.

If you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring a Charter (as that term is defined in Section 1 below) for more than just yourself, all references below to “Charterer” or “you” (and derivations thereof) shall be read to mean you on behalf of yourself and each individual within your group for whom you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring Charter.

These Terms shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer. To the extent they cannot be so construed, then in the event of any direct conflict between these Terms and any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer (including but not limited to the agreement executed by Charterer for a Charter Reservation (as that term is defined in Section 1 below), these Terms shall prevail.

• Prepaid Charter Reservations . Typically, Broker negotiates charter rates in advance with the yacht owner or charter company (“ Charter Provider ”) to obtain cost-effective rates, and facilitate reservations and availability for yacht charters, excursions and travel (the “ Charter ”). Broker also provides services to you by facilitating the booking of reservations for consideration and receives a commission from the Charter Provider (the “ Broker Fee ”). The Broker Fee is included in the pre-negotiated Charter rate provided to you, plus taxes and other fees where applicable. You agree that your payment is for the total amount set forth in the applicable Charter agreement (which Charter Provider may refer to as a Charter Contract, Charter Agreement, Booking Terms & Conditions, Instructions and Terms for Accommodations, as well as other derivations) provided to you by Broker (“ Charter Agreement ”). Upon execution of the Charter Agreement and receipt of the applicable deposit, you will have made a reservation for the Charter that authorizes Broker to facilitate the Charter on your behalf (“Charter Reservation”), including making payment arrangements with the Charter Provider. You further agree that Broker is a third-party beneficiary to the Charter Agreement and shall have the right to enforce such agreement to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder or under the Charter Agreement.

  Broker retains the Broker Fee as compensation in arranging your Charter Reservation. The Broker Fee varies based on the amount and type of Charter and/or services provided by Broker.  By making a Charter Reservation, you accept and agree to the relevant cancellation and no-show policy of the Charter Provider set forth in the Charter Agreement. Cancellation and no-show policies vary for each Charter. Carefully read the Charter Agreement and additional information provided to you by Broker. It is expressly agreed by Charterer that the Broker Fee is earned at the time the Charter Reservation is made. Late payment, wrong credit card or debit card details, invalid credit or debit cards, or insufficient funds are for your own risk and account, and you will not be entitled to any refund of any prepaid amount unless the Charter Provider expressly agrees otherwise under the Charter Agreement or in some other signed writing.

• Charter Rules and Restrictions . Additional terms and agreements will apply to your Charter Reservation and any purchase or rental of equipment or other items, supplies, provisions and travel you may select. Please read those additional terms carefully. In particular, if you have purchased airfare, please ensure that you read the full terms and conditions of carriage issued by the supplier. You agree to abide by the terms of purchase imposed by any supplier with whom you elect to deal, including but not limited to payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the supplier’s rules and restrictions regarding availability, charges, fares, and use of products and services.
• Payment . All payments must be made by personal check, bank/wire transfer, ACH payment and/or with a major credit card unless otherwise expressly stated. The total price for the Charter Reservation will be billed in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated. Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a reservation from outside of the United States on a US credit card, your bank may convert the payment amount to your local currency and charge you a conversion fee. This means the amount listed on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and therefore a different figure than the amount provided by Broker for the Charter Reservation. In addition, a foreign transaction fee may be assessed if the financial institution that issued your credit card is located outside of the United States. Booking international travel may be considered to be an international transaction by the financial institution or card company. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your financial institution on the day that it processes the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your financial institution. Broker shall not be liable to you for any such service, conversion, or exchange fee.

  Broker expressly reserves the right to cancel your Charter Reservation if full payment is not timely received as set forth in the Charter Agreement.

• Cancellation and Rescheduling . You may cancel or change your Charter Reservation as set forth in the Charter Agreement by and among you, the Charter Provider and/or Broker. Please note that some Charter Providers do not permit changes to or cancellation of reservations after they are made, or after a certain date, as indicated in the Charter Agreement. You agree to abide by the terms of the Charter Agreement with respect to your Charter Reservation. Broker will not be responsible for reimbursing Charterer for any previously tendered deposits or payments by Charterer and disclaims all liability for the failure of a Charter Provider to refund or return any such funds.
• Credit Card Transactions and Chargebacks . If for any reason, any Charter Provider is unable to provide the Charter, or any part thereof, for which you have contracted, your remedy lies against the Charter Provider, and not against Broker. However, Broker will use reasonable efforts to assist you and Charter Provider in reaching a resolution to a dispute between you and the Charter Provider. In the event that your payment has already been transferred from Broker to Charter Provider or to an escrow account, you agree that you will not seek a chargeback against Broker for such amounts transferred. You further agree to indemnify and hold Broker harmless from and against any liability, loss, damage or expense (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Broker may incur in connection with chargebacks against Broker or under the Charter Agreement and your performance thereunder. If Broker incurs any costs, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, to recover any payments charged back by your credit card company or other financial institution, you agree that you will be liable for these costs. If your payment is declined for any reason, you agree to settle any amounts owed to Broker via money order, cashier’s check, personal check or bank/ACH transfer immediately.
• Broker Responsibility . Broker makes arrangements with the Charter Provider. Broker additionally makes additional arrangements with other suppliers for the various components and other services that comprise your Charter (“Charter Suppliers”). Broker is not an agent of these Charter Providers or the Charter Suppliers (and the Charter Providers and Charter Suppliers are not agents of Broker). Broker expressly disclaims any liability for the actions or omissions of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. The Charter Providers and the Charter Suppliers reserve the right to refuse service to you at their sole discretion. Broker assumes no liability for the acts of the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers in refusing service. Broker is not responsible for schedule changes and does not offer compensation for those changes. Broker is not responsible under any circumstances for any injury or damages you may suffer, in connection with sea, air or ground transportation, hotel accommodations, or other travel or excursion services arranged by Broker.

  You understand Broker is not the source or supplier of the Charter or other travel services you requested and acts solely as a broker for the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. You agree that the Charter Provider and Charter Suppliers whose names appear in the information supplied to you are those who are solely responsible for providing the Charter you purchase. You consent to and request the use of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers and agree to not hold Broker responsible should any of them: (i) fail to provide the Charter or travel services you purchased, whether or not such services are listed in the Charter Agreement or otherwise, (ii) fail to comply with any applicable law, or (iii) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes you any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience.

By using Broker’s services, you waive and release any claim against Broker, its affiliated and subsidiary companies, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents, arising out of or in connection with any loss of or damage to property or injury to any person caused by reason of (i) any defect, negligence, or other wrongful act or omission, or any failure of performance of any kind, by any Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, or any other provider of sea, airline, hotel, ground transportation or any other travel provider connected to or otherwise associated with the Charter, (ii) any claim for inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, mental distress or other similar claim, (iii) any delayed departure, missed connection, substitute accommodation, termination of service or change in fares or rates, and (iv) overbooking, flight or other travel cancellation, lost or misconnected personal property, or any claim arising out of the air transportation portion of your travel, and (v) or any other claim arising out of or otherwise related to the Charter Agreement or services provided by the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers.

Excepting only liability that directly arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Broker, you will not hold Broker responsible for any injury, damage or loss you may suffer while on a Charter, whether incurred on the Charter or in connection with any other rental, purchase, excursion or activity, regardless of the relationship of any of the foregoing with the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers.

• Your Responsibility . By booking a Charter with Broker, you agree to defend and indemnify and hold harmless Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, causes of action, demands, recoveries, losses, damages, fines, penalties or other costs or expenses of any kind or nature, including but not limited to reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with: (i) your breach of these Terms or the documents referenced herein; (ii) your violation of any law or rights of a third party; or (iii) your use of the Broker website.

You will review your Charter Agreement and travel documents for accuracy upon receipt. You understand that it is your responsibility to review the accuracy of all details in the Charter Reservation provided to you, and that you may contact Broker if you have any questions.

You assume full and complete responsibility for checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of your destination(s), and all conditions regarding health, safety, security, political stability, and labor or civil unrest at such destination(s).

You understand that Broker recommends purchasing travel insurance to cover certain risks inherent in travel such as supplier bankruptcy and the inability to travel due to a medical or personal emergency.

• No Warranties . All Charters, products, services, advice and information is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied to the fullest extent permitted under the law, including but not limited to, warranties of title or implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality or fitness for a particular purpose. Without limiting the above, no warranty or guarantee is made (i) regarding the acceptance of any reservation request or Charter Reservation; (ii) regarding the availability of Charters, or any other product and/or services through Broker; (iii) that the use of Broker’s website will be error-free; or (iv) regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability or quality of any information, content, data, service, advice or merchandise provided by Broker or through Broker’s website.

Broker has no special knowledge regarding the Charter Provider’s or Charter Supplier’s financial condition, unsafe conditions, health hazards, weather hazards, or climate extremes at locations to which you may travel during or otherwise in connection with your Charter.

• Limitation on Liability . In no event shall Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and/or their respective affiliates, or any employees, agents, officers, directors, members or managers of any of the foregoing (“Broker and Charter Releasees”), be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of, or in any way connected with, your access to, display of or use the Broker’s website, the Charter or services provided to you in connection with the Charter (including, but not limited to, your reliance upon opinions of the Broker), whether based on a theory of negligence, contract, tort, strict liability, consumer protection statutes, or otherwise, and even if Broker and/or any other of the Broker and Charter Releasees have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

If, despite the limitation above, Broker or the Broker and Charter Releasees are found liable for any loss or damage which arises out of or in any way connected with any of the occurrences described above, then Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Supplier and the Broker and Charter Releasees will in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) the Broker Fee, and (b) One-Hundred Dollars (US $100.00).

The foregoing limitation of liability reflects the allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this section will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have failed of its essential purpose. The limitations of liability provided in these Terms inure to the benefit of Broker and/or its providers.

The foregoing does not affect any liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

• Limitation on Time to File Claims . ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF RELATING TO BROKER’S SERVICES OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
• Waiver . No waiver by Broker of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Broker to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
• Severability . If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.
• Governing Law and Mandatory Venue . The laws of the State of Florida govern the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement and the interpretation, construction and enforceability thereof. You agree that any action or proceeding initiated by Charterer against Broker shall be brought solely in the federal and state courts of Hillsborough County, Florida, and you submit to the jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over you by those courts. In the event any action or proceeding is initiated by Charterer in a court outside of Hillsborough County, Florida, Charterer agrees to pay Broker’s costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees associated with defending such action or proceeding and waives any and all defenses to the transfer of said action or proceeding, whether jurisdictional or otherwise, to a federal or state court in Hillsborough County, Florida.
