Who writes these pages

Meet the Charter Desk

A working desk, not a directory of headshots. Here is how it checks a figure, what it does not claim, and how corrections are made.

The desk

The pages on this site are written, checked and corrected by the Komodo Boat For Sale charter desk, and they carry the desk's name rather than an invented byline. This page explains how the desk works, so you can judge the pages on method instead of on a portrait.

What the desk covers

What the desk publishes, and what it never presents itself as.

What we publish

  • What a boat carries
  • How a route is actually sailed
  • What a season does to conditions
  • Which paperwork a compliant operator holds

What we do not claim

  • No licence held, no permits or approvals issued
  • Not a regulator, and no substitute for one
  • No credentials, registration numbers or titles published
  • Our own interests disclosed in plain words

Our expertise

How a page is checked

Before a figure, rule or timeline goes on this site.

  1. 01

    Source

    Taken back to operators, harbour offices and vessel safety paperwork.

  2. 02

    Label

    Official notice or operator quote, and the page says which.

  3. 03

    Flag gaps

    Unconfirmed rules are marked as unconfirmed, not filled in.

  4. 04

    Date

    A dated "last checked" line on the page.

Ask the desk

Our method

A dated "last checked" line is more useful to a reader than a claim of authority.

Tell us when we are wrong

Rules change, prices move and schedules are rewritten without notice. If a page is out of date or wrong, the desk would rather be told than find out later.

  • Report it Send the page and the error on WhatsApp or by email.
  • Fixed on the page Corrections are made on the page itself.
  • Change dated Returning readers can see what moved.

Spotted an error, or have a question?

Message the desk with the page and what you found, or ask about a boat you are considering.
