FAQ – REBOOT SAILING WEEK

How do I book a cabin?
To book your spot please reach out directly to booking@rebootsailingweek.com

When and where do the catamarans depart from?
Reboot Games Industry Sailing week starts on the morning of the 25th of April with embarking in ACI Marina Dubrovnik and ends with disembarking on the 28th of April during morning hours at the same location.

How can I make sure I’ll be in the same catamaran as my friend(s)?
If you book and pay together, you will be put on the same catamaran (if there are enough available cabins, because bookings are done on a first-come first-served basis).
If you book and pay separately you can email us at info@rebootsailingweek.com with a request to put you on the same catamaran. We do not guarantee we’ll be able to put you on the same boat, the sooner you make the request – the higher the chances we’ll be able to make rearrangements.

What is the maximum number of people per catamaran?
The maximum number of people per catamaran is 8 + 2 staff members (4 cabins, 2 people per cabin)

Can I choose the catamaran I book the cabin in?
Catamarans are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. You can choose the boat based on availability at the time.

Can I share a cabin with someone?
Each cabin on every catamaran can accommodate up to two people. There is no additional fee for 2nd person attending the event and utilizing the booked room. 

Which meals are included as part of the booking cost?
Difference for 2024 and significant upgrade from 2023 edition of Reboot Games Industry Sailing week is that ALL OF THE MEALS for either one or both people staying within the cabin are included as a part of the booking costs with having an option to choose meal preference type (fish, meat, vegan) through personal attendee poll all the way until 7 days to start of the event. Drinks offboard when visiting prebooked restaurants is the only thing that will be left to each individuals choice and will have to be covered individually. 

Is the itinerary guaranteed?
A 3-day itinerary will be prearranged by the event organization team in cooperation with the head navigator/skipper of the event and will be flexible, subject to change depending on weather and other factors. 

What happens if the case of bad weather?
All of the catamarans are heated so there will be no worries about possible cold nights or bad weather, in case of bad weather the event organization team will see if changing the itinerary is necessary and will update all attendees accordingly. In case we won’t be able to attend lunch at booked restaurants – our hostesses will prepare the meal on the catamarans.

What if I get seasick?
Navigating the sea on catamarans is the type of sailing that has the least chance of causing seasickness. In case you get seasick – please seek your skipper or a hostess.

What is the sailing route?
After embarking in ACI Marina Dubrovnik on the morning of the 25th of April we will be sailing towards and mooring at the peninsula of Peljesac and later in the day proceeding to the famous island of Hvar. On the second day, boats will be continuing the route toward the unique historical city of Korcula on the island of the same name. After leaving Korcula, we will sail all the way to southern tip of Mljet to beautiful sandy lagoon of Saplunara (all together different location from 2023 edition of the event). On the last day, the 28th of April we will be heading to our point of origin, Dubrovnik ACI marina, where we should dock between 11 AM and 12 AM.

What is not included in the price?
Drinks at some of the best authentic and unique island restaurants (we will be prebooking and eating at one of those once a day during the event) are the only things that will be left to cover at the discretion of each of the event attendees.

There are only 3 of us, can we book the whole catamaran?
There is an option for booking a whole catamaran.
In that case is no minimum number of guests, only a maximum (8 people / 2 per cabin).
You can add and change the names of the crew members until 7 days prior to the trip starting.
If you want to book a whole catamaran, please reach out to booking@rebootsailingweek.com

Can I transfer the ticket to the next year in case I need to move my booking?
You can, in case you need to transfer your booking, please reach out to info@rebootsailingweek.com

What are the cabins like?
All cabin rooms have a sizeable double bed that can comfortably accommodate two people. The cabins have small cupboards and closets for clothes. There are dedicated bathrooms and showers on all boats. Each boat has a compact but comfortable indoor and sizeable outdoor common area (saloon). There is a full kitchen and dining area on each boat, as well as refrigeration, electricity, speakers, and other amenities.

Will my electrical appliances work on the boat?
Phones, tablet computers, cameras, and other similar items can be charged at any time on the boat.

How much luggage can I bring on the yacht? 
There is limited storage space on the yachts so if you have a large suitcase we would rather advise bringing a soft bag to take what you need on the yachts and put the larger suitcase in the storage provided by the hotel you are staying at, or at Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel (where Reboot Develop Blue 2024 was happening during the days before).
If you need help with luggage, contact us at info@rebootsailingweek.com.

Will I be safe on the boat with no prior experience?
Yes! Our crew consists of experienced skippers and hostesses, as long as you listen to your crew you will be in very good hands!

What do the hostesses do?
Hostesses are responsible for preparing your onboard meals (and excel at that) while also keeping everything in order, primary duties of a hostess are taking care of the cleanliness and tidiness of the catamaran. They are responsible for keeping the common boat areas nice and tidy (kitchen, salon, deck, cockpit), food preparation, washing the dishes, changing the toilet bin, and taking out the trash. Hostess does not clean the toilets used by the guests nor clean the cabins as they are considered private guest rooms.

Does the crew speak English?
Yes, all of our skippers and hostesses speak good enough English to communicate with guests.
