PHUKETYacht Charter
Charter broker

Boatbookings

An aggregating platform that sits on top of other people's fleets, with unusually good written itinerary and destination guidance for Phuket.

What you would not get from their own site

  • An aggregator rather than an operator: it does not own or crew anything, it places bookings across other fleets.
  • The destination writing is genuinely useful, including the split between the northern Phang Nga route and the southern Phi Phi route that most itineraries are built from.
  • Breadth is the advantage and depth is the cost: the platform will not know the specific crew on a specific hull the way an owner-operator does.
  • Covers bareboat through superyacht, so it is a reasonable place to scan the whole market before narrowing.

Charter licence

How this operator handles it

Aggregating broker. The licence position belongs to the yacht, not to the platform.

Not on public record means no public statement was found. It is not a claim that a licence is missing, and the two are genuinely different. The licence belongs to the individual yacht and its management company, so inside one fleet the answer changes from hull to hull. What the licence covers.

  1. Ask them these five
  2. 01What flag does the yacht fly, and is it Thai or foreign?
  3. 02If it is foreign-flagged and 24 metres or longer, what is the Superyacht Charter Licence reference and when does it expire?
  4. 03Who is the Thai fiscal representative for the charter, and are they a TYBA member agent?
  5. 04Will the charter agreement name the yacht, the owning company and the licence, or only the broker?
  6. 05Is the 7 percent Thai VAT shown separately on the invoice, and against which company's tax number?

Routes they run, and in which version

Operators rarely run an identical itinerary. The variant matters more than the name: a four-night version of a five-night route has dropped a destination, and it is usually the furthest one.

How this profile was written

From public sources: the operator's own website, published rates and itineraries, and marina and association listings. Nothing on this page comes from the operator reviewing it first, and nothing on it was paid for.

Where a fact is not publicly stated, the profile says so instead of guessing. If you operate this business and something here is wrong or has changed, the methodology page explains how corrections are made.
