Created by a family living and sailing full-time for over 4 years.
No commissions, no agencies, no hidden fees.
Trusted by yacht owners and crew seekers from 50+ countries.
Real users, real reviews, real experiences.
Trusted by the sea, proven by the people. No middlemen, just honest feedback.
Finally! No more endless back-and-forth with agencies. I found a spot on a catamaran heading to the Greek Islands in just 15 minutes. Messaged the owner directly, and we cleared everything up. Zero commissions, just pure sailing.
As a solo traveler, finding a reliable crew is usually a nightmare. CharterBnB’s map filter is a game-changer. I saw exactly who was in the Balearic Sea and joined a great team for a week-long passage. It feels like a real community.
I’ve saved nearly $600 on booking fees alone by using CharterBnB instead of traditional charter sites. The platform is clean, fast, and most importantly — transparent. You talk to the person who actually owns the boat.
I love the 'Flexible Dates' feature. I posted my availability as a companion and got invited to a sunset cruise in Croatia two days later. It’s the Airbnb experience the ocean has been waiting for.
Everything you need to know about booking without commissions, finding reliable crew, and keeping 100% of your charter profit.
