Questions

Chartering in Mumbai

What does it cost to rent a yacht in Mumbai?

From ₹2,000 per hour for a private sailboat up to ₹33,000 per hour for the flagship motor yacht. Rates include captain or skipper, crew, fuel or transfer for the standard route, and life jackets. Catering, decor and water sports are extra.

Where do charters leave from?

Nearly always the Gateway of India in Colaba, with Bandra for some boats. A ferry or motorboat takes ten to fifteen minutes to reach the boat at anchor.

How many people can come?

The Mumbai fleet ranges from a 5-guest sailboat to a 35-guest luxury catamaran. Each licence sets a fixed limit, so tell us your group size when enquiring.

Can we bring food and alcohol?

Outside food is usually fine, confirmed per boat. Alcohol rules depend on the vessel and the permits that day, so check first.

What if the weather turns?

If the coast guard stops sailing or the captain judges it unsafe, your charter moves to another date at no cost. The captain's safety call is final.
