All-inclusive or plus expenses: which is better?
All-inclusive is simpler and easier to budget; plus expenses gives you more control and usually suits larger yachts. Neither is cheaper by default once you account for what each excludes.
All-inclusive rates are the norm on crewed catamarans up to around 60ft. They typically cover the yacht, crew, food, house drinks and fuel for normal cruising, and exclude dockage, premium alcohol, tax and tips. Plus-expenses charters, standard on larger motor yachts, quote a base fee and add APA. If you cruise lightly and eat simply, plus expenses can work out lower. If you want certainty before you leave home, all-inclusive is the easier instrument.
