Our Story
At Boatsters Black, we believe there is a better way to charter a luxury yacht; a more valuable and innovative way that enables you to be matched with the perfect yacht and charter experience quicker than you can say ‘dream holiday’. Our refreshing perspectives, which include embracing the latest technology, is one reason to opt for Boatsters Black, our unique portfolio of exciting yachts and global network another: whatever strikes your fancy, we’ll hook you up with the ideal yacht, crew and toys, and at the best rates to boot.
Boaststers Black may well be a relatively young company but we’re by no means new to the ins and outs of the charter industry. We’ve been in the business of marrying up yachting enthusiasts with exceptional yachts since 2015. What’s more, our international team is made up of forward-thinking professionals, all of which have firsthand experience sailing, managing and chartering large yachts. Our insiders’ knowledge means we know exactly which kind of questions to ask in order to find a yacht and itinerary that will suit your wishes to a tee.
The yacht charter company that takes it personal
After we’ve carefully selected a number of options that tick all your charter boxes and once you’ve decided on your ideal yacht, you can further personalise your trip through add-ons and special requests. Seamless transfers and committed after-sales service are further proof that we will take care of your trip’s every single detail from start to finish. Another reason we stand out from the rest is the fact that we love experiencing life-affirming moments on stunning yachts, arguably as much as you do.
Our passion for the world’s waters and yacht charter is why we’re fully attuned to what you, as a discerning charterer, need and what will surpass your expectations. At Boasters, we see ourselves as consultants – experts who know the world of yachting through and through and go above and beyond to create an experience that will continue to weave its magic long after you’ve left the yacht and crew’s dedicated attention.
