Green Chartering and Yacht Carbon Offsets

Yacht Carbon Emissions and Carbon Offsets

Yacht carbon emissions are becoming an extremely important issue for all charters - it is great to be out on the water but important to reduce or offset the emissions created. If this is a topic that interests you read our Green Chartering Guide so we can find a yacht that is committed to protecting the environment.

Boatbookings is dedicated to helping us all keep the planet green and has created the first program in the industry to offset emissions. Our system calculates the emissions for each boat and allows you to offset these emissions when you charter a yacht from us. Click here for complete program details.

We have also developed a handy calculator to help our customers understand the cost of carbon credits which will offset the carbon footprint of a charter. Click Here to open the new Boatbookings Carbon Offset Calculator.

The e-boat revolution and zero-emission yachts are coming!

There are almost daily announcements about new electric boats and yachts, and hundreds of new companies who see this as the future. There's so much happening, in fact, that we've developed a guide to the e-boat revolution and zero-carbon yachts.

Charter Yachts committed to Sustainability and Low Emissions

Sustainable technologies such as solar and wind power and increasingly being incorporated into yacht design to reduce emissions. In addition, many yacht captains are deeply committed to being as sustainable in as many ways as possible: from avoiding single-use plastic, to biodegradable cleaning products, to reducing generator usage at night.  Below is our curated list of yachts that are fully dedicated to protecting the environment and low emissions chartering.
