Considering a Charter Service? Read These 4 FAQ

Is the boat Coast Guard-certified?

It’s important to schedule a charter service with a company that maintains their boats to the highest standard. That means working with a team that has Coast Guard-certified vessels, as these boats provide the appropriate safety measures to ensure the health and well-being of their staff and guests. 

What amenities do you offer?

Every boat cruise is different, so it’s a good idea to look into what amenities a company offers. For example, some provide vessels with plenty of deck space so you can lounge outside and even eat in the fresh air. Look into whether the vessel features dancing and good music to facilitate a romantic evening. Also, ask about the food! This important part of a dinner cruise facilitates conversation and provides tasty fuel while you watch the sunset.

How many people can attend?

Are you looking for a dinner cruise for a small group of friends or a larger corporate event? Many charter services offer gatherings for small parties of 10 or large gatherings up to 85 people. Look into which boat is right for your needs.

Is it likely that I will get seasick?

Many people are unsure if a dinner cruise will potentially make them feel seasick. Thanks to expert captains and stable, well-maintained vessels this shouldn’t be an issue. However, those who are concerned may talk to their doctors about ways to mitigate the potential side effects of seasickness to ensure their trip is memorable in all the right ways.
