Captain Dylan Salzmann:

Spending my childhood and teenage years living between the Florida Keys and the coast of Maine there was no getting around the draw of the ocean. From a young age I could be found roaming the docks of Key West, FL picking up work scrubbing decks, sanding, painting and eventually crewing and captaining aboard the may traditional boats that winter there. During my high school years I was able to combine my love of being on the water with high school credits by creating a number of independent studies that revolved around maritime heritage and tradition. When I was 18 I purchased my first boat, a 32' cutter in Key West. I lived aboard and fixed her up before making the offshore passage to Blue Hill, ME. Shortly after my 20th birthday I received my USCG 100-ton Masters Credential and went on to run numerous vessels ranging from traditionally rigged schooners between the Bahamas and the coast of Maine, to fishing boats, dive vessels and small sailing charter boats in the Florida Keys, to piloting hovercrafts and jet drive catamarans in Alaska. Today, 11 years later I find myself sailing aboard the historic schooner When And If, sharing her history while showing off her elegance and speed to each guest who steps aboard. I look forward to racing her as a serious contender in the many Classic regattas New England has to offer in the Summer season. Sailing has become a tradition in my family - starting with my older brother who now owns When And If - and quickly spreading through all of us; it is hard to imagine a life that does not revolve around the wind and tide.

Stew/Deck/Cook: Zoe Moncheur

My love for sailing started when I was 7 years old and I crewed for my father at our local yacht club in Wellington, New Zealand where I was raised. I spent every weekend on the water and competed in national regattas throughout the country. Sailing is an integral part of my life and I feel extremely fortunate to be able to work and live on the extraordinary When and If.

While my formal education is in Law, having graduated with a Law degree from Victory University of Wellington Law School in 2016, my true love is in the culinary arts. My father is a wonderful chef, he grew up working at a resort in New York where he learned to cook and has since then taught me everything he knows. I worked my way through university waitressing at a fine-dining restaurant The Cobar, it was here I learned the importance of dish presentation.

In 2018 I was able to combine my passion for sailing and my love for cooking, as well as the skills I learnt from my father and my time at The Cobar when I was hired as the live aboard cook on the When and If. Living and working aboard this vessel has been a great experience, allowing me to introduce a creative element into my dishes with a focus on local flavours from wherever we sail. I look forward to more adventures and exciting dishes with our charter guests.

Questions & Answers

How does the charter contract work?

The contract is signed directly between the Owner and the Charterer, with the support of the broker. It is usually based on the international MYBA contract model, designed to ensure clear and balanced protection for both parties.
There is also the figure of the Stakeholder, responsible for safely holding the funds until the end of the charter.

What is included in the charter fee?

The base rate includes the rental of the yacht, the use of all onboard equipment, the presence of the crew, and the related insurance coverage.
Operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, beverages, and additional activities are not included and are managed through the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance).

The exact list of what is included or excluded will be confirmed when selecting the yacht.

What is the APA and how does it work?

The APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is an advance fund, usually equal to 25–35% of the charter fee, allocated to cover operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, paid activities, beverages, and the guests’ personalized requests.

At the end of the cruise, the Captain provides a detailed breakdown of all expenditures. Any unused amount is refunded to the client, while any overages are settled directly upon closing the charter.

What are the payment terms?

Upon signing the contract, a payment of 50% of the total amount is required.
The balance — including APA, taxes, and any additional charges — is typically due around five weeks before embarkation (depending on the owner).
Payments are made via bank transfer, which is the standard method in the luxury charter industry.

Can I cancel a booking?

Yes, cancellations are possible, but the contractual terms apply.
In general, if the client decides to withdraw, the Owner retains the deposits already paid.

If the yacht is rebooked for the same period, the Owner refunds the amount recovered, minus the applicable commissions.

Every cancellation request is handled with full transparency.
Further details on the applicable policies are available upon direct request.

How can I choose the yacht that best suits my needs?

The choice depends primarily on the type of experience you wish to enjoy:

  • Motor yacht for maximum comfort, excellent stability, and fast transfers.

  • Sailing yacht for an authentic, quiet experience rooted in traditional navigation.

  • Catamaran for generous spaces, superior stability, and enhanced privacy.

BeBlue evaluates the destination, number of guests, personal preferences, and budget to select the most suitable option for you.

How far in advance should I book?

For peak season (Mediterranean: June–September; Caribbean: December–April), it is advisable to book several months in advance to secure the best available options.
We can also handle last-minute requests, depending on availability and licensing requirements.

Is it possible to personalise menus, preferences, and activities?

Absolutely. Before departure, you will receive a Preference Sheet where you can indicate your tastes, dietary needs, allergies, beverage preferences, and the activities you wish to enjoy.
The Chef and the Captain will use this information to create a fully customised experience for you.

How many guests can be accommodated on board?

Most yachts can host 6 to 12 guests, depending on their interior layout.
Some superyachts over 80 metres, compliant with international certifications, can accommodate up to 36 guests.

Will I have Internet access during the charter?

Most yachts offer Wi-Fi on board, provided through mobile networks or satellite systems. The quality and speed of the connection may vary depending on the cruising area and the technology installed.

Is tipping the crew expected?

Tipping is not mandatory, but it is a well-established custom to show appreciation for the crew’s service.
International guidelines suggest an amount equal to 10–15% of the base charter fee as a reference.
