Skipper Your Own Charter in the Places Worth Sailing.
Thirteen destinations across the Caribbean, Bahamas, Sea of Cortez, Mediterranean, Indian Ocean, Asia, and South Pacific. Real itineraries, named anchorages, and inventory from Dream Yacht Charter, Navigare Yachting, Horizon, Waypoints, and Caraïbes Catamarans.
BareboatHQ is the resource we wished existed when we started chartering — written by sailors, not travel agents. We sell bareboat catamarans and monohulls in thirteen destinations. We're built for bareboat sailors; a few featured boats are offered skippered. If you can skipper your own boat — or you're working toward it — this is the right place to start.
What You Get from BareboatHQ
Real Itineraries
Hand-built 5, 7, and 10-day plans for every destination we sell. Day-by-day, with nautical-mile distances, anchorage notes, and the practical stuff most charter sites skip — where the holding's tricky, which cut funnels current, when the wind shifts in the afternoon.
Provisioning & Concierge
Custom shopping lists, recommended provisioners by destination, and the call-ahead notes that mean you don't show up at a closed market on Sunday.
Charter-Specific Guidance
Cruising-truth blog posts, gear reviews from sailors who actually use the gear, and a community of charterers who'll tell you whether the Boat of the Month is worth the deal.
Thirteen Destinations. Seven Regions. Real Cruising Truth on Every Page.
Each destination has its own guide — sample itineraries, named anchorages, provisioning options, activities, and the airports and bases you'll fly into. Pick the one that fits where you are in your sailing.
