In accordance with Croatian law, it is mandatory for at least one individual aboard the vessel to possess valid Navigational and VHF/SRC license. If you plan to rent a yacht without hiring a skipper, it is crucial to have valid licenses along with prior sailing experience.

Navigational and VHF licenses in Croatia are issued exclusively by Port Authorities. If you possess a license issued in another country, it is essential to verify its validity within Croatian territorial waters. Acquiring a skipper’s license entails participating in comprehensive classes and successfully passing an exam encompassing both theoretical and practical aspects. To secure your charter booking for a bareboat experience, kindly provide us with advanced copies of your licenses for verification. In the event of any discrepancies with your documentation, we will promptly notify you.

Additionally, it is imperative to have the original copies of your licenses on-board, so please ensure you bring them along. It is vital to adhere to the strict Croatian regulations governing this matter, as chartering a boat without the requisite documents is strictly prohibited.
