APCharter was registered by us in 2022. We are Sergey and Alesya Pervushkin, we have been involved in yachting and sailing for more than 17 years. Every year our family rents a boat and travels to the islands of Croatia, Greece or Italy. We believe that the view of the shore from the water is bigger and more interesting than if you come to a new place by car, but you can always get closer and go ashore. Before starting the company, we were personally faced with the inability to charter a yacht quickly and without hassle. It was only because I used to do boat bookings with Cabestan Yacht Company that we were able to find a suitable yacht and book it for ourselves. If we had just turned to a search engine, we would have drowned in information and most likely the yacht would have cost us more. That's how the idea for our project came about. We want you to find your dream yacht for rent with joy and ease, and we will help you to do it.

APCharter is not only an agency for booking sailing yachts, catamarans, motor yachts for charter in any country, but also a yachting community with a base in Riga. In the local water area of the Gulf of Riga we give the opportunity to train on sailing keel yachts First 34,7 and Platu 25. If you just dream of going on your first charter with your family or friends, but realise that you lack something, such as the right licence or mooring experience, a sense of safety and fearlessness, we will prepare you to acquire all the skills to safely sail a rented boat on your own. Our activities.
Travelling by yacht is an active type of holiday that requires almost non-stop involvement.
It requires organisation and quality planning ashore to ensure that the charter goes off to a high standard. Here are the important points to consider:
- - trip purpose
- - dates and period
- - sailing region
- - weather and wind conditions in the region
- - airfare and transfers
- - itinerary and trip plan
- - sights and shore excursion programme
- - trip cost guidelines
- - crew, list of those travelling with you
- - choosing a yacht, choosing a charter company, paperwork and payments
In addition to the main plan, you need to work on a back-up plan. We discuss all these points with you. I personally lead your charter from the selection of the yacht to the moment of the crew arrival on board, organise transfer, all logistics of the trip, draw up ship documents, support you psychologically.
See you on the water!
