Charter Company & Yacht
Please answer the following questions pertaining to the charter company and the yacht you chartered.
Rating of Charter Company & Yacht: 4
Upon arrival and during your charter, were the staff of the charter company friendly and accommodating?
Very friendly
Did the staff do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
Yes
Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
No- the boat was likely past the term of boats they typically rent.
One of the top plastic windows came loose while underway and gashed my arm.
Front window leaked and soaked all clothes on the interior shelf and everything in cabinets below.
Ceiling of 2nd cabinet fell down just enough to block door from opening
Mirror of 3rd cabinet fell off and broke all over floor
Latch of 2 kitchen drawers were worn and opened while underway
Fridge had no way to strap and opened while underway losing groceries
Toilets backed up daily
Water maker would not come on but fortunately this worked up until the end of trip
Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
Very limited and didn't make sense
Was the yacht well ventilated?
Yes
Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
The boat was larger than our last boat and we were very pleased with the lay out but disappointed with the condition of the boat. I would definitely rent the same boat again if i could be guaranteed of a much newer boat.
We had a great time and didn't let these things bother our adventure. I know these boats must take a beating but we had inquired on our last trip about the age of boats and the Moorings said that they keep boats up to 3 years. This boat was a bit over 4 years by the serial # and just needs to move on to somewhere that doesn't claim to rent a newer fleet.

Staff was friendly and accomodating.
Did the staff do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
Yes
Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
Was clean and nice. But had generator issues on 2 days and did not have air cond 2 nights which was horrible. Since generator was down making water was limited. The ceiling panel fell down on one of our guests during high sees and the refrigerator doors opened breaking glass everywhere. They need to secure the doors or recommend doing this with something because we had no idea until it was too late.
Was the yacht's cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
Yes
Was the yacht well ventilated?
5 of the 7 days were great
Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
Technical service we called while out was helpful but couldnt fix the problem without returning to port. Generator worked for that day but quit again. When we arrived at Bitter End they had a mechanic replace the impeller which looked like it was very old. These pumps need to be replaced more frequently bc the generators run 20 hours a day
