Mara Whitfield

Editor, cost and contracts

Mara edits the cost, contract and fleet guides. She checks every rate band against the operator's published sheet, every clause against the agreement it comes from, and maintains the yacht rate database behind the fleet index.

What she edits

The cost hub, the contract and logistics guides, the insurance guides and the nineteen named-yacht profiles. Destination guides are drafted from published rate sheets and port notices, then checked against at least two independent sources before publication.

How a page is reviewed before it publishes

Every rate is traced to an operator sheet or labelled an estimate. Worked examples are recalculated: APA, VAT and tip lines must reconcile with the stated base rate. Cancellation and deposit language is compared with the actual clause, not a summary. Each figure carries the month it was verified.

What this site does not claim

We do not claim to have chartered every yacht we list, and we do not accept payment for a ranking. Fleet pages reproduce published specifications and rate bands; they are not inspections.
