  or

  Contact us directly and we can can provide a custom quote to meet your specific event requirements (which can be influenced by season, time of day and group size). If you book directly through us you will save on the 6% online “convenience fee” and benefit from our event planning expertise. We are more friendly and flexible than you think.

• Do I have to pay the entire charter amount up front?

  No, we only require a 50% deposit to reserve the boat for your occasion.

  If you are eager to reserve your date, and are not sure you have the deposit amount, we may be able to accommodate a smaller initial deposit amount to ensure your date is protected. We will do our best to accommodate your needs and work with your requirements.

• When do I pay the remainder amount?

  We ask guests to pay their private boat charter remainder payment 30 days before the trip date.

• How does gratuity work on a boat charter?

  Boat and yacht charters are service based and 20% is the customary industry standard. For planning and budgeting purposes the gratuity amount is applied on top of your hourly charter rate.
