An APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is a pre-charter fund paid to the yacht. This budget covers variable expenses such as food & beverages, fuel, and marina fees. At the end of your charter, we provide you with a detailed breakdown of all expenditures, and any remaining balance is refunded to you. If you're unsure about what's included, feel free to contact our team. ### What Happens If I Exceed My APA? Your Captain will inform you in advance when you're approaching the budget limit, and you'll discuss the next steps together. Typically, a bank transfer to top up the funds ensures everything continues smoothly. ### How Much Should I Tip the Crew? In the Mediterranean, the standard practice is to tip 10-15% of your charter fee. This amount is shared equally among the crew. Bringing a thank-you card or a blank envelope is always a thoughtful gesture. ### When Can We Speak to Our Crew? We'll share your Captain's contact details a few weeks before your charter. If you'd like, we can set up a group chat between your party and the Captain to discuss plans and preferences before you embark. ## Similar yachts - [Luna](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/luna) — 33m · 8 cabins · Split, Croatia - [Quo Vadis I](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/quo-vadis-i) — 23m · 4 cabins · Split, Croatia - [Salt](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/salt) — 23m · 4 cabins · Dubrovnik, Croatia - [Phantom](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/phantom) — 25.5m · 4 cabins · Split, Croatia - [Hideaway](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/hideaway) — 23m · 4 cabins · Split, Croatia - [Elizabeth](https://www.bluemoreyachting.com/yacht/elizabeth) — 22m · 4 cabins · Split, Croatia ## Disclaimer This page is not contractual.
