This seems awfully cheap to me!

I've just received an e-mail offering a 75' yacht for a day for £1500 all in on the south coast.

Quote: "You get a full charter for 30 people on ****** for the amazing price of £1,500 (now this is a very, very special mate's rate). And Jet skiing on the two 900cc Sea Doo Jet Skis and Jet RIB is included.

Here's the clincher

The food and all the grog you can deal with are included.

This offer is a one time only, never to be repeated, don't ask for it again type of deal. Is there a condition you ask? Yes, 50% deposit this year. That's all. Dates can be confirmed this year or year if you want."

I've bought tickets for the Rugby or Henley before that cost this for 6 people!

Any thoughts?

Let's say his annual depreciation is £10,000 pa and running costs are another £10,000 then at £1500 perday his breakeven is 13 days. Looks economic to me

Lets say he gets 50 days @ £750 from naiive bargain hunters and then disappears......

I'm in! I used to day charter for £1200 a day out of Dartmouth, all booze thrown in and food, lightish, but plenty, but that was for 12 peeps, so its good.
