Customer reviews
How customer reviews and ratings work
We use the Average with Prior (also known as Bayesian Average) to calculate the total rating for each fleet operator/charter company.
Since new companies could have very few reviews, each review can significantly impact the average score, potentially leading to misleading representations of the total score (e.g., one very positive or very negative review skewing the overall rating). To mitigate this, we use a "prior" or "default" score.
This means that each company rating, by default, starts 4, which is calculated from 3 hypothetical reviews, each rated 4. This assumption provides a baseline level of performance that is neutral-to-positive.
For example, if a new company receives a 5-star review, the total rating will be adjusted to 4.25. Here's how it is calculated: (4 × 3) + 5 = 17 and then divided by the total number of reviews 4 (3 default + 1 actual review), resulting in 4.25
As more reviews come in, the weight of the actual reviews increases, and the influence of the prior diminishes.

“Very poor experience of North Sailing Preveza”
Very poor communications from the Preveza North Sailing team, their base manager in Volos intervened twice to sort out big problems with the Preveza operation. On the 1st day of our charter the local team told us they were cancelling our charter when we were still moored at Preveza: the manager from Volos base saw this message on WhatsApp and contacted us to tell us to ignore everything the Preveza team has alleged, saying ‘They are thick’😱.
After several issues with the boat (including no charts for the navigation system), on the final day we were left hanging around Preveza harbour for almost 6 hours in deteriorating weather as there was no berth, though we saw many other returning yachts from other charter companies mooring up.
The manager from Volos told us later he was withdrawing their boats from Preveza due to the number of complaints about their team there. Initially he said he would make an offer of compensation but presumably he was overruled as he later wrote (after we chased it up) to say we should complain to Boataround as they were the booking broker and THEIR service was poor!
