The Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) is a standard term in yacht charters. It's an upfront payment made by the charterer to cover expenses like fuel, food, mooring fees, and onboard services during the trip. The APA is typically around 30% of the charter fee. The captain manages this fund, tracks expenses, and provides a breakdown at the end. Any remaining funds are returned, or the charterer covers extra costs if the APA is exceeded. It simplifies expenses and ensures a smooth charter experience for you.
