Check travel requirements

After choosing your dream destination and yacht, check all travel requirements. Obtain all necessary documents!!

Also, ensure to take your travel insurance and all documents with you. Don't forget to take your set of licenses (if you have some) and other documentation. Bring any verifications you might have (they could come in handy) and all contact information you might have. You can never be too careful when it comes to safety!
