CRUISE WITH THE CREWS FAQ
Can I bring my own boat?
While we would love to have any and everyone attend, this is a private group event open to those who have paid for a cabin.
Do you need sailing experience?
No, this is the perfect opportunity to come and learn! You can be as hands-on or hands-off as you would like to be for the week.
What are the estimated food costs?
We expect costs for provisioning to be about $500 per cabin. Please keep in mind that alcohol is not included and is your only provisioning responsibility.
Your private chef will prepare a full menu, including breakfast, lunch, a snack, and dinner. Your boat will be provisioned before your arrival.
We will have a couple of meals on island during the week so you can experience local cuisine. We think $50-70 per meal is a good average.
Additional expenses (fuel, water, moorings)
We expect it to be no more than $600.00 total per boat (cost split between all cabins) however that depends on each boat’s crew and how much fuel is used while running the generator and engines.
