Bareboat chartering is the primary focus of this Tuesday-night seminar, the 7th in a series hosted by Captain Tom Tersey and Captain Doug Riley of the Maryland School of Sailing and Seamanship.0:18 Riley, who also teaches at the school, walks through the three main charter arrangements — bareboat, flotilla, and captained charter — and explains the trade-offs of each, including privacy, cost, and skill requirements.0:59 Charter pricing is covered in detail: a base teaser price typically nearly doubles once insurance, cruising fees, and provisioning are added.22:47 The BVI is cited as a specific destination, with guidance on reading coral versus sand from the water, anchoring rules near coral, waste pump-out etiquette, and med-mooring in tight harbors with current and crosswind.18:20 Catamaran versus monohull selection is discussed, with catamarans noted as dominant in most charter fleets due to capacity and stability.26:37 Qualification requirements are addressed: ASA 104 is the bareboat standard, but Riley and Tersey both argue it is insufficient alone without independent skipper time.30:23 Chartering in Europe requires an International Proficiency Certificate ($59 through ASA) and possibly a radio license.32:46 Documenting sailing experience for charter companies — logbooks, owner certifications, charter records — is explained.44:46 Pre-departure preparation includes studying electronics manuals by manufacturer and model number, reviewing online chart briefings, and arranging checkout the day before departure to avoid losing a charter day.11:31
