Questions guests ask

Do I need a licence?

Yes, unless you book a skipper. Croatia requires the skipper to hold a boating licence and a VHF radio certificate. No licence? Add a professional skipper – we arrange it.

Is the transit log included?

It is not listed among CHECKMATE's obligatory extras in our data. We confirm it with the hold, before you pay.

What if I change my mind?

During the 48-hour hold you simply let it expire, at no cost.

Are pets allowed?

Yes, for a fee – see "Available at extra cost" under Equipment.

When do I pay, and how?

Only after we confirm the hold: bank transfer or card through a secure payment link.
