A vessel, a crew, a coastline. Arranged.
A weekend charter or a month at sea. Motor yachts, sailing cats, expedition vessels — each with a captain and crew we've sailed with before.
Engineered around the trip, not the inventory.
Yacht charter is a relationship industry. Revenant has spent years cultivating the central agents and captains who separate a week on paper from a week you'll still be replaying in a decade.
We match the right vessel — not just the right length — to the trip. Guest count, draft, range, crew style, onboard program: every variable matters, and we run each of them before a brochure is sent.
APA, provisioning, dockage, and tender logistics all handled before you step on deck.
Matched to the mission.
Day charter
Half or full day
A motor yacht or catamaran for an anniversary, a sunset, a proposal. Crew, chef, water toys included.
Weekly motor yacht
80–180 ft · 6–12 guests
Full-crewed motor yacht with master, VIP, and guest cabins. Chef-prepared meals, tenders, full water-sports locker.

Performance sailing yachts or luxury catamarans. Quieter, lighter footprint, better for shallow anchorages.

The questions we get most.
How much does a yacht charter cost?
Weekly charter rates vary dramatically by vessel size and season. A 100–120 ft motor yacht runs $80,000–$200,000 per week in low season and $150,000–$400,000 in high season. 150–200 ft yachts run $300,000–$800,000 per week. Superyachts over 200 ft commonly exceed $1M per week. APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is typically 25–35% on top of base.
What's included in the charter price and what's APA?
Base charter fee covers the vessel, crew, insurance, and use of on-board equipment. APA is a separate deposit covering variable expenses: fuel, dockage, provisions, beverages, customs fees, and communications. Unused APA is refunded; overruns are settled at the end. We handle the APA setup with the central agent.
Which regions are the best for charter?
The Western Mediterranean (French Riviera, Amalfi, Balearics) and the Caribbean (BVI, St. Barts, Grenadines) are our most-booked cruising grounds. We also arrange charters in the Bahamas, Croatia, Greece, the Galápagos, Antarctica, and the South Pacific.
How far in advance should I book?
Peak summer Mediterranean (July and August) should be booked six to twelve months ahead. Holiday weeks in the Caribbean fill similarly early. Shoulder-season and last-minute availability exists and we watch it actively for flexible clients.
Do I need to bring my own crew, chef, or captain?
No. Every charter is fully crewed. The captain, chef, stewardesses, deckhands, and engineers are part of the vessel. We brief the crew on your preference sheet before you arrive — allergies, favored wines, kids' sleep schedules, activity pace.
