A charter quote starts from your dates, not from a catalogue: that's why our channels are WhatsApp and email, where the details travel well. Three lines from you, real boats from us within 24 hours.
How to reach us
Message us on WhatsApp at +39 351 476 6918 — the button on this page opens the chat with a pre-filled message you can edit. Prefer to talk? The same number takes calls: if we can't pick up, leave a message and we call you back. We answer every working day 8:30–19:30 (Albania time); evening messages get answered the next morning.
Email: write to starthubproject1@gmail.com with dates, group size, licence/skipper needs and must-sees. Same 24-hour quote standard; WhatsApp is simply faster.
What to include in your first message
- Dates — exact or a flexible window (flexibility often drops the price)
- Group — headcount and cabin needs
- Experience — licence photo for bareboat, or "skipper please"
- Preferences — monohull or cat, must-sees (Karaburun, Ksamil, Corfu), base if you have one
What happens next
Within 24 hours: 2–4 real boats with availability, specs and itemised indicative prices. You choose; the fleet issues the contract at direct prices; deposit confirms the week. Then we see you on the dock for check-in — and we're one message away all week. Our assistance is free for guests, and stays that way.
Where we work
Multi-day charters from Vlorë (Marina Orikum), Saranda and Durrës. One note: this site is exclusively for charters of a week or more — single-day trips aren't our format.
Every season the best boats book earlier. Open the chat, send your dates, and know your real numbers within 24 hours.
Frequently asked questions
How fast do you really reply?
Real boats with prices within 24 hours of your message in working hours; evening messages are answered the next morning. Peak season may add a few hours — but always within the day.
Does your assistance cost anything?
Never for guests. The fleets compensate us for booked weeks; your price is the fleet's direct price, deposit and balance paid to the fleet under their contract. No online payment, no fees to us.
Can I enquire by email instead of WhatsApp?
Yes — starthubproject1@gmail.com with the same details (dates, group, licence/skipper, preferences) gets the same 24-hour quote standard. WhatsApp is faster because everything stays in one thread.
How and when do I pay?
Directly to the fleet, under their contract: deposit confirms the week, balance follows the contract terms. Nothing is paid online to us — ever.
