As an owner of a Beneteau 473 yacht, how much per year will I get for chartering through agency in the med?

Question

What do agencies usually get as a % of the price that the end client pays? Does anyone know how many weeks on average I can expect to rent the vessel for? How does the charter market work for the owner if he is difefrent than the agent?

Answer 1

I lived in St Thomas VI An seen & repaired some of there rental fleet. The persons that put there brand new boats in charter to make the payments for 2 weeks use. Came back after 8 months in charter an there boats were trashed beyond imagine.The 1s renting some have never been on a boat before, They smoke burn holes in every thing,crash into other boats , take no care an do every thing they can to tear the boat up.An the nice people you trust with your investment don't stop the rental for 1 minute> There is little or no maintiance to the boat.As when 1 party is getting off ,1 is getting on.Non stop an the maintiance repairs come out of your end so don't expect to make any money just a well used boat in return???Unless your going to be the captain an on the boat full time best to look very carefull as it a scam??
