Tipping is
something almost every yacht charter guest wonders about. According to the
Mediterranean Yacht Brokers Association (MYBA) tipping guidelines in the
Mediterranean sailing area, the general rule is to tip between 10% and 15% of
your weekly charter fee, excluding running expenses and taxes. It’s customary
to put the entire tip for the crew in an envelope, together with a personal
note, and hand it directly to the Captain. In turn, the Captain will determine
how to split up the tip amongst the crew.
