A couple of Motor Retreat Boat Costing Examples.
1) River trip - Dartmouth to Dittisham VIllage One of our most popular trips is a short trip up river to the village of Dittisham . This village has a couple of great pubs, a café, sailing tuition and an excellent romantic mooring. (There is even a seal that swims past occasionally). This is a round trip of only three miles, so would only cost £250 for a round trip in one day, or £500 if returning a day/week later. (two call-outs for the skipper). This trip is ideal if you were doing a three-night break.
2) Motor Cruise - Dartmouth to Salcombe If you were to take the boat from Dartmouth to Salcombe and back, this would be a round trip of about 32 miles; you would pay £370 for this.
We can always price up a particular trip for you.
If you were to just leave the boat moored, you would not pay any additional costs.
Provisions
We supply a starter food pack, to include, milk, bread, butter, eggs, bacon, tea, coffee, sugar etc. (This is included in your hire cost). If you would like any extras you would also need to pay a provisioning cost, and this would be the actual cost of the goods from our chosen supermarket, there is no surcharge for this. We can suggest quantities of food to buy in relation to the trip you are making, and the fridge space available.
The Retreat Boat is a non-smoking vessel.
We require a minimum of 25% as a deposit, with the balance payable 6 weeks prior to the hire, we also take a damage deposit of one nights rental which is refundable if there is no damage to the vessel,it´s interior or accessories.
