Indexing & Ranking of Listings

    How catamarans are ordered on this website — disclosed under EU Platform-to-Business Regulation 2019/1150.

    Last updated: 9 May 2026 · Disclosure under Regulation (EU) 2019/1150 (Platform-to-Business).

    Why this disclosure exists

    EU regulation requires online platforms that intermediate between sellers (yacht owners, charter operators) and end users to publicly disclose how listings are ranked. This page explains exactly how the catamarans on this website are ordered.

    Listing pages

    The /catamarans/ page presents the fleet in three sections, in this order:

    • Luxury Crewed Catamarans — flagship vessels with full crew (captain, hostess, chef). Sorted by length descending so the largest, most-equipped boats appear first within this group.
    • Skippered Catamarans — hand-curated fleet sailed by a professional captain. Sorted by typical popularity (a function of size and price ascending).
    • Skippered Catamarans (Ionian) — partner-fleet vessels sailed by a professional captain. Sorted by import order (most recently added first).

    What we do not do

    • We do not use paid placement.
    • We do not use sponsored "boost" promotions that lift one yacht above another for a fee.
    • We do not apply commission-based reranking — yachts are not pushed up for charging higher commissions to us.
    • Order does not change based on advertising spend.

    Search filters & default sorts

    When a charterer applies a filter (dates, region, guest count), results are re-ordered by direct relevance to that filter — for example, vessels available on the requested dates are shown first, then by guest-capacity match, then by the default listing rules above.

    Differentiated treatment between own fleet and partner-managed fleet

    We treat all vessels in our fleet on equal terms regardless of ownership (own fleet vs. partner-managed). The only differential is information depth — luxury crewed catamarans receive more detailed editorial content because the higher price point and crew arrangement justify the additional explanation.

    Right to dispute

    If you are a yacht owner whose vessel is listed on this website and you believe the ranking treatment is unfair, please use our Dispute Resolution Policy. We commit to a written response within 30 days under our complaint-handling procedure.
