For Boat Charter

Boat & Yacht Charter Website

Nobody picks a boat by comparing specifications; they picture the day they will spend on deck and book from whoever made them picture it. A site that shows your fleet in real photography, spells out what the price covers and takes the booking in one tap turns that picture into work. Forpus builds sites for boat and yacht charter companies.

Boat & Yacht Charter Website

What does a boat charter website include, and what does it cost?

A boat charter website is your own address for showing the fleet, explaining the tours, spelling out what the price covers and taking bookings without a middleman. A typical charter site we build has a separate page per boat carrying capacity, length, cabins and departure point, tour cards for options like a Bosphorus cruise or a sunset trip, a list of what is and is not included in the price, a booking form that asks for dates and group size, one-tap WhatsApp, a gallery and video from real shoots, English pages and a fast, mobile-friendly design. A site covering the fleet and the tours starts in the ₺50,000–85,000 band and goes live in one to two weeks. A full bilingual site with a page per boat and a working booking form sits in the ₺90,000–150,000 band over two to four weeks. Once an availability calendar and online deposits are involved, you are looking at a project starting from ₺220,000. Video loads when it scrolls into view, not on page load: in tourism a heavy site is a lost booking.

Frequently asked questions

Can you build a booking system?

Yes. From a simple request form asking for date, time and group size, up to an availability calendar that closes out the days each boat is taken. Firms running one or two boats usually do fine with a date form plus WhatsApp; as the fleet grows and you run several trips a day, a calendar starts to pay for itself.

How do we show what the price covers?

We build two short lists on every boat and tour page: included and not included — fuel, captain and crew, catering, ice and drinks, cleaning, mooring fees, extra hours. Weekday, weekend and peak-season rates are shown as bands. It becomes one of the most-read sections on the site, and it ends the argument at the pier before it starts.

Does every boat need its own page?

Not required, but it pays off. Someone looking for a gulet for ten and someone looking for a sunset trip for two are asking different questions; in a single 'our fleet' gallery neither finds it. Separate pages let each boat carry its own capacity, length, cabins and departure point — and let Google show each one for its own search.

Will video slow the site down?

Not if it is built right. We do not download the video on page load; it plays once it scrolls into view, with a poster image standing in until then. Images are produced at several sizes so a phone never downloads the desktop file. That is the real trade-off in tourism: looking good takes big files, big files lose visitors.

Can we take deposits online?

Yes. We can add a deposit step wired to your payment provider: the guest picks a date, pays the deposit and settles the rest on the day. We recommend putting your cancellation and weather policy on the same page — trips postponed for wind are unavoidable in this business, and the firm with a written policy does not end up arguing.

Can we publish reviews and run campaigns?

Yes, freely. This sector is not bound by the promotion restrictions that apply to healthcare, so reviews, ratings, early-booking discounts and special-occasion packages can all sit on the site. We pull your Google reviews into a section and give you a campaign area you update yourself.
