What are my options if I (or one of my guests) are unable to attend due to contracting covid-19?
-
We strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance which provides coverage for the cost of your trip in the event you are unable to attend due to contracting covid-19. If you or someone in your crew contracts covid-19 before joining us, you will not be entitled to a refund.
-
Travel insurance covering covid-19 disruption is widely available and affordable. Speak to our Customer Service team if you need recommendations for what is required in your policy.
What happens if I test positive during the week?
-
If you test positive during your trip you will be required to isolate yourself from the rest of the group and leave your yacht at the earliest opportunity. This will mean the end of your trip. You will then need to follow the procedures that are in place for positive cases in the destination country.
-
The rest of the guests will be required to take a rapid covid-19 test. If any guests test positive, then they will also be required to leave the yacht. Guests testing negative will be permitted to continue.
What happens if someone from my group tests positive during the week?
-
If someone from your group tests positive, all guests will be required to take a rapid covid-19 test. If any other guests test positive, then they will also be required to leave the yacht. Guests testing negative will be permitted to continue.
What happens if my skipper or host tests positive before the week?
-
If your skipper or host test positive before your trip (and therefore must enter an isolation period) we will do our best to provide a replacement from our pool of standby staff.
-
If we are unable to replace your skipper, then we will offer a full refund for your trip as you will not be able to sail.
-
If we are unable to provide a replacement host, then your crew will be refunded for your host and will be able to continue the trip without a host on board.
What happens if my skipper or host test positive for covid during my trip?
-
Your skipper or host will isolate you on the yacht and leave at the earliest opportunity. Whilst a replacement will then be sourced, the rest of the crew will be required to take a rapid test. If any crew member tests positive, then they will also be required to leave the yacht. Crew members testing negative will be permitted to continue.
-
If we are unable to find a replacement skipper, then your yacht will be returned to the base marina and your crew will be refunded for the remaining days of the trip.
-
If we are unable to find a replacement host, then your crew will continue the trip without a host, and a refund on the host cost pro-rata for the remaining days.

Will I be tested for covid at check-in?
-
As it stands, we are planning to test all guests with a Rapid Antigen Test at check-in. This policy may be reviewed depending on the covid-19 situation and domestic policy.
-
If you test positive at this point you will be offered the opportunity to take a PCR test at your cost. If negative you can join, if positive you will not be able to attend and you will not be eligible for a refund.
Is it possible to purchase departure tests for onward flights?
-
Testing is available, ask your crew for more details.
