International Yacht Charter Group as your yacht charter broker?
How we work for you.
We are independent, and work with a number of established luxury crewed yacht charter managers around the world without being biased or limited to presenting yachts to our clients from any particular fleet or set of charter yachts. Our role is to represent you the client as a yacht charter broker, helping you identify the ideal yacht and providing unbiased and useful advice based on our experience, knowledge and awareness of available charter yachts that may suit your particular needs.
The choice is yours, and we'd certainly recommend you work with a broker you feel comfortable with and who understands your ideas and unique needs. We are happy to chat with you first without any obligation to see how we can help you. Chartering a fully crewed yacht is a complex matter and often we talk to clients who have never chartered like this before. That's where we can excel as your broker! Our goal is that you remain excited about your vacation and we'll help you with all the details, often perhaps providing you answers to questions who hadn't thought of.
What makes up the ideal yacht for your charter?
As yacht charter brokers, we will learn the type of accommodations you need and like, the type and size of other spaces on the yacht both for living inside and outside, the type of amenities and water toys you like, your budget, and not to forget the where you like to charter and the type of yacht. We'll learn the type of crew that may work best for your group or family and with all this information will start to show you yachts that may work and are available for the timeframe or dates you are looking for.
Our Charter Brokers attend yacht charter shows in major chartering locations around the world to be familiar with many yachts and meet their crews etc. We also attend various lectures about chartering, the paperwork involved and destinations, so we remain current in the available choices and all steps of the yacht charter booking process.
What happens if something goes wrong?
While the majority of yacht charters happen uneventfully, occasionally a issue may come up. In these rare situations, we are here to be on your side helping you solve the issue. All yacht charter contracts are between the client and the actual owner of the yacht, so while we cannot dictate a solution for you with the owner, we can help you work towards a solution which satisfies you based on our experience and reputation within the industry.
Our position in the charter industry.
We are active members in the major yacht charter associations worldwide including The Mediterranean Yacht Brokers Association 'MYBA', the Charter Yacht Brokers Association 'CYBA', the American Yacht Charter Association 'AYCA', and the Florida Yacht Brokers Association 'FYBA'.
