BeAlert  Charter & Private Boating

Extra protection and peace of mind while boating in The Bahamas.

Many visitors explore The Bahamas by boat — through private charters, fishing trips, yacht excursions, sailing adventures, or island-hopping experiences.

Spending time on the water is one of the most unforgettable parts of visiting The Bahamas.

However, boating often takes travellers further from immediate medical facilities or emergency

BeAlert Charter & Private Boating helps fill that gap.

Using the BeAlert app together with BahamasEvac’s experienced medical coordination team, boaters and charter guests can receive guidance and support during medical situations, along with emergency medical transport coverage within The Bahamas if it is ever required.

Whether you are cruising near Nassau, exploring the Exumas, fishing offshore, or travelling between islands, BeAlert Charter coverage provides an extra layer of reassurance while on the water.

For Charter Operators, Captains & Yacht Crews

Captains and charter operators understand that guest safety is always the top priority while on the water.

While vessels are often well equipped with safety gear and trained crews, access to medical assistance can be limited depending on location.

BeAlert Charter coverage provides an additional safety resource for captains and guests.

By recommending BeAlert Charter coverage, operators can help ensure guests have access to:

  • Professional medical guidance
  • Emergency coordination support
  • Air or ground ambulance transport to hospitals in Nassau if required

This allows captains to focus on the safe operation of the vessel while knowing additional support is available if needed.

How Charter Operators & Private Boat Owners Can Offer BeAlert

Charters and private boat owners can easily offer BeAlert coverage to guests and crew as part of their trip planning.

Many charter operators choose to include BeAlert as part of the guest experience by mentioning it:

  • During the booking process
  • In trip preparation emails
  • As a recommended safety option for guests spending extended time on the water

For private boat owners hosting guests, adding BeAlert coverage is a simple way to ensure everyone on board has access to emergency support if needed.

While boating in The Bahamas is an incredible experience, medical facilities are not always nearby when you are out on the water or visiting remote islands.

BeAlert provides added peace of mind, helping ensure that professional emergency coordination and medical transport support are available if required.

Coverage can be purchased prior to departure and applies throughout The Bahamas for the duration of the charter or time spent on the water.

Why Many Boaters Choose BeAlert

Boating often involves travelling significant distances from medical facilities.

Activities such as snorkelling, diving, fishing, spearfishing, and island exploration can also carry increased risk of injury or medical events.

Having access to professional guidance and emergency transport coordination can provide reassurance for both guests and operators.

Benefits include:

  • Access to medical coordination professionals if issues arise
  • Emergency air or ground ambulance coverage within The Bahamas
  • App-based geolocation to help emergency responders quickly identify your location — especially useful when boating or in remote areas
  • Peace of mind while boating in remote locations
  • An additional safety layer for charter operators and yacht crews

A Small Step That Can Make a Big Difference

Unexpected medical situations can happen anywhere, including on the water.

Emergency medical transport between islands can be extremely expensive.

Depending on the location, air ambulance transfers within The Bahamas can cost approximately $15,000 USD to $35,000 USD or more.

For vessels cruising in areas such as the Exumas, Long Island, Mayaguana, or Inagua, the cost can be even higher depending on the distance.

Having a plan that includes emergency transport coverage can help protect travellers from these unexpected costs.
