    How Large Group Charters Work

    A bareboat (sometimes called a demise charter) is a type of private charter arrangement used for larger groups.

    Rather than purchasing individual tickets, the charterer rents the vessel for their group's private use. This arrangement allows larger groups to enjoy a private experience on the water while following the appropriate charter structure.

    The process is straightforward and our team helps guide guests through each step.

    Why Larger Groups Follow A Different Process

    Our public sailing experiences and standard private charters are designed for smaller groups. When a group exceeds six guests, the trip must be arranged differently than a traditional ticketed tour.

    The bareboat charter process allows larger groups to enjoy a private experience while ensuring the proper agreements and documentation are completed before the trip.
