PRIVATE
CHARTER CREW
Scottravel Gulet
Cruises recognizes that the crew
members are also a key to making or breaking a holiday cruise. Therefore, our
skippers and sailors undergo rigorous screening and tests as to their ability in
leadership before they are accepted as part of our team in order to ensure that
they have the right aptitude to perform charter cruises.
We only use fully
qualified and experienced crew. We have an extensive data base of willing crew
members, many of which have sailed with us before. Most of our skippers and crew
are Turkish who have an extensive knowledge of cruising grounds and local
life.
Your captain will ensure that your cruise moves along at a
good pace. He decides on departure times and meal times according to the
composition of the group, the day of the week and weather conditions. The
captain is responsible for the safety of the vessel and its passengers and has
the right to alter the itinerary when necessary.
Since the skipper is
responsible for everything during the sail, all your requests are to be directed
to him. The skipper can accept your invitation for supper or for a cup of coffee
or a glass of wine; and you, in your part, may ask him to tell you how to steer
the yacht, and even try to do any interesting ship work.
Tips to the crew
are usually 10 percent of the charter price. Nevertheless, the tip is at your
discretion, and the sum may vary subject to your satisfaction with the trip.
Just hand in an envelope over to the skipper before coming ashore.
