PHUKETYacht Charter
Fleet manager

Sunsail Phuket

The bareboat sister brand to The Moorings, sharing the Yacht Haven base and aimed slightly further down the price scale.

What you would not get from their own site

  • Same base, same turnaround pattern, a simpler specification and a lower price than the sister brand.
  • Sail-weighted, with monohulls as well as catamarans, which is increasingly rare in a market that has moved almost entirely to catamarans.
  • Publishes useful planning information for Phuket rather than only a booking funnel.
  • Bareboat only, plus a skipper if you want one. No crewed product.

Charter licence

How this operator handles it

Global bareboat operator running a locally based fleet under Thai operation.

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?

    The workhorse of the Phuket bareboat fleet. Four cabins, eight berths, shallow draught for the limestone anchorages, and simple enough that a competent crew can run it without a skipper.

    The house catamaran of the global bareboat brands, built for charter service rather than adapted to it, with a forward cockpit that is genuinely useful at anchor in the tropics.

    The cheapest way to charter a yacht in Phuket with cabins for eight, and the one that actually sails upwind. The trade-off is heel, less deck space and a draught that keeps you out of the thinnest anchorages.

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.
