Small teams, one boat, no event agency
Client entertainment, a team afternoon, or the dinner after the quarter closes. Booked directly with the captain, capped at thirteen so nobody is standing, and invoiced the way your finance team needs it.
The number that decides the whole thing
Thirteen guests is the Coast Guard limit on the Chris Craft 45, and it counts everyone who steps aboard. For a leadership offsite, a client afternoon or a team of ten, that is comfortable. For a company of forty it is not — that is the point at which all three boats go out together and raft up, and we will tell you so in the first message rather than squeeze forty people onto one deck.
If your group is larger, the honest answer is usually a venue with a terrace rather than a boat. We will say so.
The organiser's problem is never the boat
It is the person who cannot swim, the one who gets seasick, the vegetarian, and the executive with a call at four. So you deal with one person here, not a booking desk. The captain knows the plan before the day starts and holds the return time.
Tell us the constraint when you book. A guest who would rather stay dry, a hard stop at five, someone who needs shade all afternoon: each of those changes which boat we put you on, and it costs nothing to say early.
Client entertainment and a team day are not the same booking
For clients the Chris Craft 45 is the one: a saloon to sit in, a proper head with a shower, and enough deck that the conversation is not one huddle. For a team afternoon in July the covered Sundancer 40 is usually the better call, because shade decides whether anyone enjoys hour five.
Bring your own food and drink. We are not a catering company and will not pretend otherwise. There is a fridge, a cooler on ice and a table in the cockpit, and most organisers order a platter and carry it aboard.
The same kit on all three boats
Captain and fuel
Both in the price. You never rent a hull and sort the rest out yourself.
Cooler on ice
Ice and drinking water aboard, with room for whatever you bring.
Floating pool
Goes in the water as soon as we anchor, on all three boats.
Life jackets, every size
Child sizes carried as standard. You never have to ask or bring your own.
Your playlist
Bluetooth speaker aboard. You pick the music and you pick where we stop.
Your own food and cake
Bring the food, the drinks and the balloons. We keep the cake cold until you ask.
Corporate charter questions
Can you invoice the company?
Yes. Send the company name, address and any PO or reference number your finance team needs and it goes on the invoice. Payment is arranged directly with us, not through a booking platform taking a cut.
How many people can come?
Up to 13 on the Chris Craft 45, counting everyone who steps aboard. It is a Coast Guard limit rather than a preference, so it cannot be stretched on the day.
Can we bring catering?
Bring whatever you like. There is a fridge, a cooler on ice and a table in the cockpit. We do not supply food, and we would rather say so plainly than hand you a menu we cannot deliver.
What happens if the weather turns?
We move the booking. Nobody wants a client sitting through a squall, and a captain who runs the day anyway is protecting his own calendar rather than your event.
Send the date and the headcount
One number back covering boat, captain and fuel, plus an invoice carrying whatever details your company needs. If thirteen seats is not enough, we will say so before you book anything.
Other celebrations
Bachelorette boat party
Up to 13, the whole day photographed, and the bride organising nothing.
Birthday boat rental
Cake kept cold, your playlist, and the engine cut with downtown behind you.
Sunset cruise
Forty good minutes, timed backwards from the sun. The shortest charter we run.
Sandbar day
Waist-deep water, white sand under it, and the floating pool in.
Family boat day
Shade all day, child-size life jackets as standard, and nobody in a hurry.
Skyline & photos
Star Island, the big houses, and the hour the light lands on the city.
Large groups
Too many people for one boat? All three go out together and raft up at the sandbar.
Romantic evenings at sea
The whole boat for two, the cockpit table, and a captain who stays out of the photographs.
Ash scattering at sea
A private boat past the three-mile line, and as long as you need once the engine is off.
