There is a sense of wanderlust in the air here. Exploring new areas, discovering unknown restaurants in the harbors in the evening, enjoying nature and the sea during the day - this is the world of charterers, whose numbers are growing from year to year.
Being able to choose the destination of your choice and the right boat, free from a home marina and a specific weather zone - that's what makes chartering so appealing.
And when additional information from tourist boards or maritime destinations is added to the mix, then it really comes into its own.

He still regularly travels to all the charter areas of the world to report on sailing. The Hamburg native studied geography and seafaring and has been drawn to sailing around the world ever since he got a taste of the sea.

Jürgen Straßburger
Our man with a keen sense for great and unforgettable motorboat trips is Jürgen Straßburger. Born in 1945, the journalist and author has been on the water since the 1960s. In the 70s and 60s, still a passionate sailor at the time, he undertook numerous ferry trips for renowned charter companies in the Mediterranean. At the end of the 80s, his hobby became his profession: he took over the helm of the travel department at the motorboat magazine BOOTE until 2010. The cult boat "TROLL" took him on countless research trips to all inland and coastal areas of Western and Central Europe. Since 2010, he has been working as a freelance author of several inland and coastal manuals.
