*Special Note:
While we are here to encourage and support use of CYBA-E contract platform, we are not available for questions pertaining to the overall booking process, how to make payments to stakeholders or other concerns regarding how to write a contract.
We would like to suggest taking an ONLINE CYBA course for new brokers.

The CYBA E-Contract was primarily written for Inclusive charters on fully crewed charter yachts. It may be adapted for Non-Inclusive/Plus Expenses charters and be used for charters anywhere in the world so long as it is accepted by all parties.
Can it be adapted for non-inclusive charters?Yes. By using the Special Conditions. Where necessary start off with the words ‘Contrary to Clause 2. CHARTER FEE/TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
If the terms are different to Clause 2. B also, please write ‘Contrary to Clause 2. A and B. and then continue writing your non inclusive Terms.
This Contract has been reviewed and approved by at least one, well recognized, maritime lawyer. Once the Contract has been fully executed it is fully binding unless for any reason, both Owner and Charterer, equally, decide to retract it. Terms of remuneration to both CA and Broker would then fall into the categories of Cancellation by Owner and Cancellation by Charterer.
