Which license shall I hold for a bareboat rental?
The possession of a boat license (Category a or higher) in Italy is mandatory for the command of yachts longer than 10 meters or less than 24 meters (vessels and pleasure boats) in the following cases:
when navigating over 6 miles from the coast;
on pleasure crafts with installed on board an engine with a displacement of more than 750 cm³, or 1,000 cm³ if with four-stroke carburetion outboard or if with direct injection, or 1,300 cm³ if with four-stroke carburetion inboard, or 2,000 cm³ if diesel cycle;
on pleasure craft with installed on board an engine of more than 30 kW (40.8 HP), regardless of the displacement and type of fuel.
Dreams Horizon Yachting always requires a Category A boat license if the rental is bareboat.
