Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about planning your event yacht charter in NYC

How far in advance should I book my event yacht charter?

While we recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance for optimal planning, we can accommodate event yacht charters booked within a week of your desired date, subject to availability. For special occasions like weddings or large corporate events, booking 6-8 weeks ahead ensures availability and allows time for detailed planning.

Safety is our top priority. In case of severe weather, we offer flexible rescheduling options. We also offer rain insurance for complete peace of mind. Our Trident yacht has climate-controlled interior spaces, so light rain doesn’t typically affect your event. We monitor weather conditions closely and will contact you 24-48 hours before your charter if conditions look questionable.
Absolutely! You’re welcome to bring decorations to personalize your event yacht charter. Our crew can assist with basic setup. We ask that decorations be yacht-friendly (no permanent adhesives, open flames, or items that could damage the vessel). For elaborate setups, we can arrange additional setup time for an extra fee.While we recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance for optimal planning, we can accommodate event yacht charters booked within a week of your desired date, subject to availability.
