TALK TO A CHARTER EXPERT
You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.
Why Choose a Charter Cruise
A private boat charter has many advantages over an independently booked small ship cruise . In addition to the many reasons to travel by small ship , a private ship charter offers your family or small group exclusivity, flexibility, privacy and savings. A full yacht charter can save 10 to 30% off regular per-person cruise rates, and you can often choose the length, route and many other details to truly make the trip your own. Just note that our private boat tours are all overnight, no day-only bookings.
How Many Passengers Do I Need?
Private cruises are perfect for families and small groups of 6 to 200+ travelers, so there really no set minimum to book a charter cruise. Our charter cruise clients have ranged from couples booking small 6-guest yachts to zoological societies, family reunions, wedding groups and alumni associations booking larger ships. Business groups and clubs have sought out luxury private cruises with us, and we’ve arranged simpler, affordable charters for families as well.
Where to Charter Cruise
As long as there is an ocean or river and an available ship, you can book a charter cruise anywhere. Our experts will work with you to determine where and when is best for your group. Sometimes we start planning with the destination. And other times, we start with a date range then select where to charter cruise.

Our most popular destinations for small ship charters include Alaska; Hawaii; Baja California; Belize; the Caribbean; Costa Rica; Northern Europe’s England, Ireland and Scotland; Panama; Galapagos, Antarctica; the Amazon; Australia; Indonesia; the South Pacific and the Mediterranean.

How Far in Advance to Book a Charter Boat?
Typically charter cruises are planned and contracted at least one year in advance of the departure date, but as long as space is available a charter boat can be booked at any time. Much depends on the time of year you’re seeking to travel and the destination’s popularity. Learn more about the private cruise ship selection and booking process in our How to Charter a Ship guide.
What Costs to Expect
How much is a charter boat ? Costs vary greatly depending on passenger count, destination, season, etc. But did you know that a private cruise charter costs 10-30% less than booking individual staterooms? Many travelers are surprised to learn how affordable a cruise boat rental is versus paying individual cabin rates. But also be aware that a charter boat rate remains the same, whether or not you have enough travelers to fill all the staterooms. For more details about pricing, read our detailed guide on cruise ship rental cost , with explanations and further considerations about pricing.
Private Boat Charter Deals
In addition to saving on individual cabin rates when you rent a cruise ship, look for additional promotional savings by browsing our charter deals . Many times, charter boat operators prefer to block off their ships for private groups for ease of operations and the fun of flexibility. Oftentimes if you look early, you can get the best deal on a private boat charter.
Customizing Your Charter Cruise
Cruise itineraries, on-board programs, activity levels and even food service can be customized to the interests, ability and budget of your group. Have a keen interest in bears, whales or bird watching? Want to kayak all day or just a little? Traveling with a school science class? Looking for a focus on ancient religion or indigenous cultures? Want to hone in on whiskey tasting, golf, tennis, or horse-riding? Our experts can find the right destination, the right charter boat and the right itinerary for your group.
Meet Your Captain, Crew & Guides
All our charter cruises are fully crewed charters, outfitted with an experienced and professional captain and crew. We do not offer bare-boat charters. We believe that the captain, guides, chef and crew are an integral part of expedition cruising and that their experience and expertise are essential to a safe and successful voyage.
Choosing Your Charter Boat
If you’re considering a private boat charter, we recommend starting with destination and/or ship size. If you’re flexible, looking by charter boat size is a great starting point. Pick your size from the list below to browse private cruise ship listings, filtering by destination and ship type. Perhaps you’re seeking a charter boat for family travel? Something small with a romantic cruise feel, for a few couples? A private ship for a business event? Or to rent a cruise ship for your wedding? Start your search here:
Small Yacht Charters (6-20 guests)
Small yacht charters offer an active and intimate cruise experience up close to nature, wildlife and culture. Private yacht cruises offer daily opportunities to explore away from the vessel on hikes, sea kayaking, snorkeling or zodiac excursions. If you’re looking for a private sailboat charter or a small luxury yacht, this is your starting place. Note that 6- to 20-guest yachts, riverboats, sailboats and barges vary considerably in price and amenities. You’ll find everything from rustic floating base camps with bunk beds and shared bathrooms to luxury yacht cruisers with hot tubs and elegant furnishings. Most small yachts carry kayaks for up-close exploration, and some Belize catamaran charter sailboats even carry jetskis.
Large Yacht Charters (21-50 guests)
Large yachts offer the intimate nature and efficient landings of the small yachts combined with all the roominess, amenities, service and luxury of the small ships. Expect more spacious cabins, bathrooms, dining rooms, lounge and deck space. Many large yachts offer spacious suites in addition to standard cabins. Cuisine is delicious and service exceptional. Large charter yacht cruises offer plenty of space for group functions or private moments on deck. The extra space aboard large yachts makes them popular for families with kids and teens, as well as some added amenities for those seeking luxury yacht charters. Some large yachts carry kayaks while others do not.
Expedition Ship Charters (50+ guests)
Expedition-size small ships are the largest vessels we offer. Ships larger than this lose the intimate experience and ability to explore away from the ship that is so crucial to a successful adventure cruise. These ships offer the most space with larger cabins, bathrooms, salons and lounges, dining rooms and more deck space. Each small ship offers a variety of cabins from standard to suite. Expect professional service with restaurant-style meals. Small ships also offer the largest staff of naturalists and guides.
Luxury Boat Charters
If you are seeking a luxury boat charter, you’ll find one in every ship size category mentioned above. Since the definition of luxury is very relative to each traveler, we recommend contacting our charter cruise specialists to discuss which luxury private cruises are best for your needs. A luxury boat charter on the Amazon River can mean a private cold plunge pool on your own cabin balcony, while small luxury yacht charters in Alaska might be less about what’s on board the charter boat and more about the exclusive experience with guides, cuisine and access to wilderness.

Great trip. Action packed. We almost needed a vacation from the vacation.
We traveled with another family so it was super fun and easy. This trip is a great way to go with 2 families. Kids and adults had a blast!
The charming boat, excellent crew, and good friends made this a joyful, memorable trip.
This was an amazing trip. The accommodations, tours, and overall experience was amazing. Everything was planned to perfection. We never were waiting or wondering what was next. Definitely booking more trips. It was family and we all loved every minute of our adventures in Belize.

The Infiniti ship and crew were excellent. Suite on Infiniti was excellent. Room serviced multiple times a day. Could have used additional shampoo/conditioner/soap daily. Would have enjoyed turn down service chocolate nightly (instead of occasionally).
Food options were excellent. Chef able to accommodate multiple vegans/vegetarians. Proteins (meat/fish) were a tad overcooked, but all meals impressive. Favorite was Italian-themed day.
Juan was passionate and enthusiastic about educating guests about all-things Galapagos. Carlos was a little more reserved, but still excellent.
[We most enjoyed]...the Galapagos Islands. [We least enjoyed]...Quito due to altitude sickness. About half of the guests off boarded mid-trip and another 11 guests on boarded. Average age of second half considerably younger. All passengers were great, no jerks.
AdventureSmith was helpful as COVID protocols changed just prior to trip.
Plan for sea sickness regardless of your past experience.

After sitting idle for 16 months from traveling outside of the US, it was awesome to finally venture out and have it be to Belize! This was a trip that was postponed from 2020 and it exceeded our expectations in experience, accommodation and activity. (We had) a desire to go on a sail boat, snorkel and dive and get out to the Caribbean. We were able to dabble in the interior for some jungle love and then on a sailing catamaran extravaganza around the cayes of Belize. We traveled with another family so it was super fun and easy. This trip is a great way to go with 2 families. Kids and adults had a blast! The mantra of the trip "Now we're doing something" couldn't have rang more true!!
Chaa Creek was beautiful and our villa was quite fancy. Large windows, spacious, a/c, our own pool and howler monkeys hanging out next to it. The catamaran "Tranquilo" was equally as nice. It fit the 8 of us plus the 2 crew just fine. Had a/c in the rooms, seemed to have plenty of storage, and the bathrooms worked fine.
Food at both the lodge and on the catamaran was wonderful. All fresh and uniquely prepared. Kainie from the boat was amazing in what she prepared and even went the extra mile and gave us a 4th of July picnic since we were there for the holiday. Just awesome.
Our group loved the ATM wet cave where you swam and splunked through big caverns and narrow passageways only to come to a part of the cave where old pottery relics and skeleton bones dated 1600 years were left behind by Mayan people. The Mayan ruin of Caracol. The fishing, snorkeling and diving of the incredible reefs of Belize. There is not much not to enjoy but I probably would not have done the tubing from Chaa Creek as it was long and slow.
I think if you have a group that would like to go to Belize spending the money on a charter boat is the way to go. So intimate, lots of flexibility and fun. The kids were taught to spear fish by our captain, sailing to the different cayes was amazing. I would have liked to have seen some more local communities but that can be for the next sailing trip. Being in the jungle and at Chaa Creek was also a great side trip to do in addition to the boat. So glad we got to experience both the jungle and sea!
Transportation was arranged via Chaa Creek and Belize Sailing Vacation. All were flawless and we were met on time with comfortable travel vehicles all equipped with a/c which was great since it was so hot and humid!
Communication about expectations and how to prepare were spot on and well needed since it had been awhile since any of us had traveled out of the country. With all the nuances added due to Covid we never felt uninformed about changes or requirements. Pretty seamless. Adventuresmith also provided us with a useful app that had all of our pertinent information, flights, etc for easy access to resources.
Adventuresmith prepared us in such a way that we always were kept abreast on any and all changes, requirements or nuances with the trip that we needed to be aware of. The app we had that held all of our information was pretty slick. Trip information and details were complete and accurate. Friendly and knowledgeable staff that were genuinely excited for us to travel.
Flights seem to change constantly so keep up with it. Make sure to do your research on what excursions you want to do and ask questions. Sometimes while you're in the country of travel you need to work a little for clarification for some of the excursions or experiences.

The nature of the boat means cabins aren't spacious, but that is part of the experience. The Catalyst is a marvelously maintained craft with handsome brass fittings, proudly maintained original engine, and rich teak accents. It's a beauty.
Every meal was a visual and gustatory feast.
It's hard to pick a favorite. The hikes and kayaking were enjoyable, presentations were outstanding, the vistas were serene, and the crew members' interactions with us were always to ensure our comfort and pleasure.
What a crew! It's hard to imagine a better one. Each crew member was highly skilled, each ensured that we were enjoying the trip and the excursions, and each seemed to interact flawlessly with the others. Captain Che Rodgers is a skilled, talented leader who ensured not only the safety of the boat and passengers but also their enjoyment. Naturalist Jesse Turner was superb. He was knowledgeable, accommodating, and delightful. The last night's slide show set to music which was put on a thumb drive for each of us along with other photos and nuggets, is a cherished treasure. Mate/engineer Dan Liden was clearly skilled, adventuresome, and fun.
Fellow Passengers Review
A friend booked the trip, and I was invited to join the group. We were all good friends in the beginning and became even closer as a result of this experience on the Catalyst.
AdventureSmith prepared us well for the trip.

A Beginner’s Guide to Chartering a Yacht
By Chrissie McClatchie
With the pandemic driving a boom in superyacht charters , more and more people are taking to the water for their first yachting experience. But while some superyachts can cost more than a million a week to charter, you don’t need to outlay seven figures for your own yachting vacation.
Wondering what else you need to know before stepping on board for the very first time? We’ve turned to experts in the yachting industry for their insider intel on how to charter a yacht like a pro—from how much it will run you, to where to go, and well beyond. Read on.
Do I need a charter broker, and how do I find one?
It’s a charter broker’s job to match you with the right yacht and crew—and then take the lead in planning the entire experience. Professional bodies such as MYBA The Worldwide Yachting Association act as a database of industry-recognized professionals. But the best source for finding a charter broker is often your own network. “Building up a relationship with a charter broker is very important,” says Jacqui Lockhart, a Monaco-based broker at Camper & Nicholsons International . “If possible, look for a recommendation from a friend.”
Once you’ve found the right broker, communication with them will be key. “Take the time to be as detailed with your preferences, such as dietary requirements, likes and dislikes, and preferred activities, as possible,” says London-based broker Charles Crane of Edmiston . “This will give us and the crew the best information to make the charter a success and tailored to perfection.”
How much should I be prepared to spend?
“The entry point is around $40,000 for a week on a yacht 82-feet upwards that can sleep six people," says Lockhart. What can take first time charterers by surprise is that this isn’t an all-inclusive figure. “The charter fee covers the hire, the crew, the insurance—everything that’s linked to the yacht,” Lockhart continues. Anything specifically for the client is extra—including food and beverages, fuel, and dockage. As a rule of thumb, budget for an extra 30 percent on top of the baseline charter figure for these extras, which goes into a fund known as the Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA). At the end of the charter, it is also customary to tip the crew; between 10 and 20 percent of the charter fee is a guideline figure. There may also be Value Added Tax (VAT) to pay on the charter rate, depending on the country of embarkation.
At the smaller end of the charter fleet, more opportunity exists for single-cabin bookings rather than whole yacht charters. This year in the Caribbean , Sheila Ruffin of Soca Yacht Charters has launched a “Stranger on the Seas” package. Prices start at around $6,000 per person—all-inclusive—on catamarans between 48 and 60 feet. “This allows couples the opportunity to mix and mingle with other couples for an adventurous and social yacht charter on the Caribbean Sea,” says Ruffin.
What destinations are best suited to first-time charterers?
“For first-timers, I wouldn’t recommend a remote destination,” says Captain Kelly Gordon of Freddy , a 106-foot charter yacht based out of the Bahamas . “When it’s hard to get to, that eats up some of your valuable time and can also take some of the fun out of it.”
While yachts are heading towards unchartered waters such as Antarctica with increasing frequency, cruising grounds in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean are classic destinations for a reason. “For the first-time charterer in these locations, there will be more yacht options to choose from, proven cruising grounds with known and safe anchorages, well-connected and easy access hubs to ensure smooth passage to embark and disembark the vessel as well as the ability to source most provisions that guests may want,” says Crane.
The key ingredient? The crew.
Although much of the focus is on securing the right yacht, the secret to the success of a charter is its crew. “Put simply, the crew make the difference between a good charter yacht and a bad one,” says Crane. Today’s crew are increasingly versatile. “They may also be a diving or yoga instructor, personal trainer, fisherman, or sommelier,” he continues.
The crew also knows your cruising area better than anyone else. “Be sure to pick their brain on fun things to do. They often love the opportunity to come up with fun activities and games, whether for kids or adults,” says Lotte Barker-Hahlo, a London-based charter broker at Burgess .
The level of hospitality from crew on most yachts often convert first-time charters into repeat customers. “The attention to detail from the crew is unsurpassed by any other luxury holiday,” says Barker-Hahlo. “From the unpacking of your suitcase to being offered a drink before you’ve even realized you’re thirsty, it’s 24-hour care and service.”
Gordon says that much of the feedback she receives at the end of a first-time charter is why didn’t we do this earlier? “People are always surprised at how we take the time to get to know their needs before they have even arrived. We really do study those preference sheets!”
Think carefully about who else you want on board
Another important factor to a successful yacht vacation? Your fellow travelers. This is a specific type of vacation, which should narrow your list of invitees. “Strongly consider who you vacation with when chartering a yacht,” urges Ruffin. “Unlike other vacation options, yachts are very intimate and exclusive. Choose to share your water adventure with those you like and will enjoy on the water for a week or more.” Maybe, even for veteran yachties, that's the sagest advice of all.

924 Crewed Luxury Yachts for Charter in the Amalfi Coast
Amalfi Coast Yacht Charter
An Amalfi Coast yacht charter promises the ultimate Mediterranean vacation and a true taste of life in Italy . Dotted along the coast, the towns of Positano , Sorrento , Ravello and the island of Capri are located in close proximity to one another, making them easy to incorporate into a short-hop charter itinerary. Since the Amalfi Coast has limited on-land routes, a luxury yacht charter is the ultimate way to fall in love with this stunning slice of West Italy in summer 2023.
Known for its dramatic cliffs and picture-perfect towns, the Amalfi Coast sits in the Campania region of Italy bordered by the Tyrrhenian sea.

related articles
Luxury yacht charters on the Amalfi Coast generally begin in Naples, or Napoli in Italian, and approach the Amalfi Coast from the north. However, it is equally possible for you to begin your yachting adventure in Salerno, and cruise along the south-facing side of the peninsula first.
It's simple and straightforward to fly into Naples International Airport (NAP), which operates non-stop flights from the USA, Europe and the Middle East during the peak season.
The port of Naples is also a convenient gateway to other parts of Italy and wider Mediterranean region, with charter yachts easily able to find a berth at one of the many marinas here.
Whatever route you choose, you can be sure you won’t miss the highlights; the Amalfi Coast is comparatively smaller than other Mediterranean hotspots, so you incorporate everything you want to see into a shorter itinerary.
sample itineraries
Where to End an Amalfi Coast Yacht Charter
If you are spending more time chartering a yacht, you may be tempted to head to Sicily , Sardinia or the Italian Riviera as part of your Amalfi Coast superyacht charter. All of these destinations can be accessed within a night cruise, and visiting them is a great way to explore another side of Italy.
With so many alluring towns and villages on the Amalfi Coast and the surrounding region, you may wish to finish your crewed yacht charter in a new destination. However, you could also finish your vacation where you started, and there are plenty of itineraries that incorporate a round trip.
Wherever you choose to disembark your yacht, finding an airport to take you back home won't be a problem. The Amalfi Coast and surrounding areas are well-connected by air, and you will enjoy a seamless transfer to an airport of your choice. Helicopter transfers can also be arranged; Sorrento, Capri, Sicily and Sardinia all have private heliports.
There is a limited number of marinas along the Amalfi Coast, and as a result, slip costs in this region are among the highest in the Mediterranean , as many smaller yachts are unable to sit out at anchor as the water is too deep.
If you would like to spend a night in port, then be sure to make this clear to your crew or your charter broker well in advance, so that they can book it. It's advisable to spend a few nights of your charter docked in a marina, as there are plenty of restaurants and bars that are great for evening entertainment on the Amalfi Coast, and being docked in a marina will give you easy access to the town centre.
The marinas that do exist along the Amalfi Coast typically cater to smaller yachts, so be sure to bear this mind. The following are the best marinas in the region, with a number that cater to larger yachts:
- Marina di Stabia , one of the most popular places to begin a yacht charter on the Amalfi Coast, located midway between Naples and Salerno on the north-western side of the Amalfi Coast, and boasts luxury facilities and the capacity to host yachts measuring up to 100m. It is conveniently situated just thirty minutes' drive from Naples airport.
- Marina Molo Louise is another favorite option for starting a yacht charter in Naples, and caters to yachts measuring up to 110m. It is located just over twenty minutes' away from the airport.
- Coppola Marina , located in the town of Amalfi, this marina has 90 berths with a maximum length of 35m.
- Marina Piccola, situated in the beautiful port town of Sorrento, it has 280 berths which cater to yachts measuring up to 40m.
- Grassi Junior, offers 30 slips for yachts with a maximum length of 30m, located in the sought-after hotspot of Positano.
- Capri Marina , another popular addition to an Amalfi Coast superyacht vacation, but the cost of a slip for one night is the highest in the Mediterranean, so be aware of this before you book in. There is a total of 300 berths, with a maximum length of 60m.
- Marina d'Arechi , popular marina in Salerno, which has 1,000 berths with a maximum capacity of 130m.
Slips are something that will add an extra cost to your yacht charter vacation, so it's important to be realistic about your budget and factor these expenses in before you book your charter.
With its A-lister appeal, rich cultural history and bevy of world-class restaurants, the Amalfi Coast is one of the most popular destinations in the Mediterranean. Therefore, we advise you to book your yacht charter well in advance of your trip to secure your perfect yacht on your preferred dates. If you leave it too late, the selection of yachts at your disposal will be reduced and you may not be able to explore the destinations you have your heart set on.
Plus, finding dates when everyone in your charter party is available can be tricky; the longer you leave it, the more challenging it will be.
Your yacht charter broker will also need plenty of time to tailor an itinerary to suit you, and enough time to book ahead for the nights you wish to spend in marinas. We recommend booking up to 3 months in advance to give your broker the optimum time to organize everything down to the last detail.

The amalfi coast yacht charter itineraries.
To fully experience the charm of the Amalfi Coast on a yacht charter, you will need around seven days- however longer and shorter itineraries can also be arranged.
The region is reasonably small compared to other destinations in the Mediterranean, but a week will give you ample time to step on shore and explore all the beautiful towns and cities of the Amalfi Coast. Expect to encounter the beautiful gardens of Ravello, the lemon groves of Sorrento, the cathedral in Amalfi and the captivating town of Positano.
For longer itineraries along the Amalfi Coast, there are many small islands scattered off the coast that can be explored; from Capri and Ischia in the south to Ponza, Ventotene and Ponza in the north.
Most Amalfi Coast yacht charters begin in Naples, where there is an international airport and large port. However, charter guests can easily begin or end their yachting adventure elsewhere in the Mediterranean, and incorporate the Amalfi Coast into part of their overall yacht charter experience. Guests on a private yacht charter in the Amalfi Coast may want to begin in the Italian Riviera or the South of France, and continue onwards to Sardinia or Sicily.

Amalfi Coast Yacht Charter Q&A
Be aware that marinas in the Amalfi Coast are in high demand, so mooring costs can add up significantly and you will need to ensure you book a berth well in advance. The region can also be congested in peak season, and towns and villages can be touristy.
There is a wide variety of yachts for charter in the Amalfi Coast, so you can be sure to find an option that suits you and your budget.
Before you book, you should factor in additional costs that aren't covered in the base rate, such as berthing, fuel, VAT, food and drink and crew tips.
Since it can be challenging to find sheltered bays and shallow water to drop anchor in, you will more than likely need to berth in a port for a night. Marinas along the Amalfi Coast are among the most expensive in the Mediterranean, so berthing costs can quickly add up.
Be aware that marinas in the Amalfi Coast are in high demand as well, so you will need to ensure you book a berth well in advance.
To give you an idea of which yachts are available, you can browse the complete fleet of Amalfi Coast charter yachts on our site. If you make an enquiry, a yacht charter broker will be in touch to provide you with a custom charter proposal based on your requirements.
Alternatively, you can reach out to your preferred yacht charter broker , and they will be able to find the ideal yacht for you and your charter party.
The prime time for an Amalfi Coast yacht charter is between June and September, when the weather is warm, rainfall is low and the wind is minimal.
The weather is pleasantly warm as early as May and later in October too, with the added bonus of fewer crowds.
Between August and September the sea temperature is higher; so later in the season is best to visit if you want to spend a lot of time in the water.
Amalfi Coast yacht charters typically start in Naples, where there is an international airport. Naples is the best starting point if you'd like to explore all of what the Amalfi Coast has to easy access to Capri and Sorrento on the western side and Positano and Ravello on the eastern side. Naples makes a great starting point if you'd like to explore further afield as well, with the islands of Ischia and Ponza located nearby.
Amalfi Coast yacht charters can also start in Salerno, where there is a domestic airport that operates scheduled and chartered flights. Salerno is the best place to start if you have limited time and would like to see the sights of Amalfi, Ravello, Positano and Nerano, all of which are located on the eastern side of the Amalfi Coast.
Of course, it's also possible to take a car down the Amalfi Coast and board your yacht from anywhere you choose.

The 10 best boat rentals in NYC
Debating between a two-hour hire or a full-day trip along the Hudson? Choose a boat to start your adventures around NYC
Okay, so finding a boat rental may not be the first thing on your mind when planning your next trip to NYC. However, some would argue (us included) that one of the best ways to see the city at its best is on the water. From two-hour bareboat hires (yes, you’ll be the skipper) or a boat tour to full-day events fit for up to 600 people on a super yacht, there is a wide choice of boat rental options in New York City for you to choose from And we’re here to walk you through them and help you find the right one for you – and your socials, of course. Let’s get into it.
Before sailing into our list of the best boat rentals in NYC, we’ve got to keep you in the know-how for renting boats. It may sound super simple, but there are certainly a few things you should know before booking your dream yacht. Thanks to us (no shame), we’ve put in the research so you don't have to. Take a look and get ready for one of the best things to do in NYC .

How much does it cost to rent a boat in NYC?
Renting a boat in NYC can be a surprisingly cheap thing to do, especially when split between your pals or family members. Most of the offerings are centered around quarter- and half-day rentals, while the mega-party yachts occasionally deliver a full-day experience. Prices for quarter-day boat rentals begin around $500, while larger boats and half-day rentals can get into the lower thousands. With that in mind, we’d suggest finalizing your guestlist and budget before putting down a deposit. It's smarter in the long run, promise.
How much does it cost to charter a private yacht in NYC?
Chartering a private yacht in NYC varies from other parts of the country where you’ll often hear of $100,000 charters as standard procedure. Thankfully, in New York City, things are a little different. Full-day charters can range from $5,000 to $60,000 – although the higher price points typically cater to large groups of 300 guests plus. it's best to decide beforehand what kind of party you’re throwing and how many guests you’d like to accommodate to ensure you get the best deal.
What do you need to rent a boat in NYC?
To rent a boat in NYC, you’ll need to be over 18 years old, hold a valid driver’s license, and have a credit card (in most cases). In some circumstances, you’ll also need a Boating Safety Certificate, but it’s best to check in with your boat rental company in advance to find out exactly what they need from you. Alternatively, you won’t need any sailing qualifications if you charter a private yacht as the captain will be in charge – just have the cash ready.
Does a crew come with a boat rental in NYC?
No, a crew doesn’t come with a boat rental in NYC. If a boat is offered bareboat, this means that you’ll be the skipper for the duration of the trip and there will be no captain onboard. However, if you charter a private yacht, more often than not, there will be a crew onboard to heighten your experience. You will need to verify this in your package offering.
What's the difference between NYC rentals and charters?
Most boat rentals in NYC are typically quarter-day or half-day trips centered around the Hudson River and offer up a unique perspective of New York City. There’s also a large variety of boats available, ranging from speedy motorboats to soaring sailboats. A few boat rentals in NYC offer the bareboat option, while the majority will have a captain available to sail you around the Big Apple's coastline so you sit back, relax on charter and enjoy that glass of bubbly in peace.

Best NYC boat rentals
1. The Azimut Express Cruiser
This 70ft luxury Italian yacht is one of the most incredible (and well-priced) super yachts in New York that we've ever seen. Catering to 12 guests with three bedrooms and three bathrooms a piece, this Azimut Express Cruiser is a brilliant yacht to charter for a group of friends or a large family looking for a memorable experience. Sail away, friends.
2. The Catalina Standard
There's nothing quite like hiring a private sailboat from Brooklyn Bridge Park and gliding across the Hudson River. Pack your own picnic beforehand and spend an afternoon soaking up the NYC sun while your captain takes you for a spin on this gorgeous Catalina. Yes, this one comes with a captain included.
3. The Sea Ray 270
This luxury woman-owned motorboat in New York City is designed with a group of friends in mind. With plenty of seating for up to 12 guests, an onboard bathroom, a fantastic sound system, and coolers for all your spritzers, this is the ideal boat for a day out with the pals. What’s that? Oh nothing, we just see a bachelorette party on the horizon.
4. The United States Coast Guard Yard Lightship
If you’re searching for iconic, you've just found it. This US Lightship comes from the '50s before she was decommissioned in 1985. A unique charter offering, she caters to over 100 guests and is one of the few full-day event options aboard a ship in NYC. And if not for anything else, she's pretty Instagrammable.
5. The Atlantis Custom Super Yacht
Some might just say that Atlantis is the go-to New York party yacht. With a capacity for 300 guests and 147ft of event space, this private charter yacht will be the party that's talked about for decades afterward. Whether it's corporate dinners, birthday parties, or a full-blown wedding, Atlantis and her crew will cater to yours – and your event's – every need.
6. The Cape Craft
This one-of-a-kind boat rental in NYC offers guests a private fishing charter experience. Bask in the ambiance of Long Island's coastline while Captain Arthur shows you how to perfect your tackle – pun not intended. Simply cast your line and see what comes of it. Ay-ay, captain.
7. The Luxury Cruise
Hop aboard this 200ft European-style party boat originally from the naughty ‘90s. Catering for 300, this cruise provides guests with epic views of the Manhattan coastline (and skyline) through its revolutionary glass windows. Hear that? Yep, it’s popping-bottle time. Grab your bestie and get dancing.
8. The Beneteau Sloop
Cruise through New York City's harbor on the stunning Beneteau Sloop sailboat, courtesy of the captain. There’s a large table onboard ideal for food and drinks served by the professional and friendly crew. Ideal, right? Just don't forget to wave to the Statue of Liberty as the USA flag billows in the wind beside her.
9. The Godfrey Sweetwater
This comfy pontoon is ideal fun for all the family. It's easy to drive (that's one for you, cap) and has a built-in GPS and Bluetooth radio. The finishes are super modern and with adjustable roofing, you’ll have prime viewing of New York City all around. Please note that you must be at least 25 years of age to hire this boat.
10. The Party Cruise
Perhaps the largest NYC party yacht rental we’ve seen, this party cruise is a step back into the early 2000s – but with an interactive DJ from 2023, thank goodness. Or not? Either way, marvel at the breathtaking views of New York while you sip on something cold included in the food and drinks package. Don’t you just love a win-win? We certainly do.

Fellow sailors share their amazing experiences
Renting a boat from NSS was an amazing experience; observing their super competence, organization, assistance: a "HUGE THUMB" is not enough - no words to describe their professionalism. Kisses to you guys and see you again soon!!! Special greetings to Leo and thanks again for owing the welding machine!
Liberato was fantastic! very welcoming and friendly and completely catered the day to what we wanted to do. His restaurant recommendation was impeccable and we had an unforgettable visit to Capri. Thankyou Liberato, 5 gold stars for you :)
Simply fantastic!!!! Beautiful and brand new boat! Silver service, the skipper was super helpful and so the owner. we visited wonderful places we can only recommend this boat to everyone!!! we will be back soon for another day at the beach. thank you Partenope Yachting!!!
I recently booked a boat hire for my sister’s hen party, and it exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable. They provided light snacks, refreshing fruits, and delicious meats, setting the perfect tone for the day. The welcome Sangria was a lovely way to begin our celebration. Montse and Oscar were very attentive, yet they respected our privacy, allowing us to enjoy our time together without intrusion. Communication before the event was seamless, ensuring we knew exactly where to go and what to expect. The boat itself was comfortable and spotlessly clean, providing the perfect backdrop for our celebrations. Overall, I cannot recommend this boat hire enough – it's the epitome of five-star service!
It was a pleasure to have Amy and her group on board. Lovely people, very nice and friendly. Our company had lots of contact with Amy and she is very reliable and correct, absolutely recommendable for every boat owner and always welcome back to sail with us!
An absolutely perfect experience with Vlaho! He picked us up promptly at 10am, and he had great communication up until we were able to find him on the dock, such as by sharing his location to help us easily find him. Vlaho has many friends across the islands and called up his connections to book us morning breakfast, lunch, and dinner (after departing from boat) at wonderful local spots. The lunch spot was family owned and they opened up lunch service just for us - it felt so special. He had a variety of ideas of things to do and pivoted easily when we changed our minds on what we wanted to do. He is super welcoming and happy to talk with you for the whole day or just as happy to sit in the background while you relax on the boat! We even stayed an extra hour on the sea as we were all enjoying ourselves too much to leave! I cannot wait to come back again and have another outstanding time with Vlaho. We booked Vlaho originally because he had such high reviews and he did not disappoint! Highly highly recommend.
Harriet booked for her parents a boat with skipper. Harriet was easy to communicate with and her parents were absolutely lovely people. Very friendly and respectful people
Elizabeth is a seasoned captain with decades of experience in difficult situations. The yacht was redelivered in tip top condition which for such a very long charter is almost impossible! It is very rare to find people who know what their limits are and respect them and the sea. Additionally, the entire crew comprised of avid travelers with great enthusiasm and knowledge of the Greek coast. Thank you so much for choosing our company for your adventure. It was a pleasure to meet you and hope to see you in the future!
Our favourite sailing destinations
I discovered Click&Boat surfing the Internet. I am a naturally curious person, and your website caught my attention right away. I started reading about your general terms and conditions, where I quickly found a phone number. After talking to the client service, which was very pleasing, I decided to try out the platform.
At the age of 16, I was volunteering for the Red Cross of the Sea, where our goal was to assure sailing regattas. It is during that period that I learned to navigate on small boats for the first time. After 30 years, I finally got to own my first fishing boat bigger than 8 meters in length. Five years ago, a friend of mine who made his fishing boat available for charter, invited me to come aboard with him and some clients. It is then that I saw how much people appreciated the sea. So, I decided to pass my professional license to be able to take people out on the water in Mallorca.
The service that I offer is simple charters without skipper, because many people own a boat license, and our vessels are easy to handle. We are starting private excursions where we can take people on the boats to places they could not go to by themselves.
Most of the profits we make are spent on fleet upgrades. I always like to remember how thankful renters are when they are satisfied with our service.
Maribel and I would like to thank Click & Boat for their trust and service.

We mainly operate in the calm, protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater. Where to go very much depends on what you would like to do and how long your boat charter is for so please feel free to discuss this with our team.

Your skipper is knowledgeable in the local area and will make recommendations based on the conditions on the day. If you don’t wish to swim in a 3 hour charter you instead opt to sail further north along the inside of South Stradbroke Island and see the millionaires mansions at Sovereign Islands.
In the evening we will generally sail north to watch the sunset and return to the southern part of the Broadwater to enjoy the city lights after dark which are just beautiful.

We mainly operate in the calm, protected waters of the Gold Coast Broadwater. If we go offshore (into the open ocean) there is a possibility of large waves.
Are your charters suitable for guests with limited mobility?
We have welcomed several guests on board with limited mobility. However we do realise that each individual is different in terms of ability and what they are comfortable with. Please take a look at the 360 tours on the ‘ Our Boats ‘ page for an ideal of getting around the boats and do bear in mind a big step up (or carry) is required to board the boats at the marina. Our friendly team will be happy to discuss further to ensure you and your guests are comfortable prior to making a booking.

Politics latest: Grant Shapps to make statement on MoD breach; Labour accuses Rishi Sunak of 'gaslighting' public
Defence Secretary Grant Shapps will make a "planned statement" later on news of a data breach at the Ministry of Defence; Rachel Reeves takes aim at the government on the economy, accusing Rishi Sunak of "gaslighting" the public.

Rachel Reeves, the shadow chancellor, is now taking questions from journalists who had gathered to watch her speech, including our political correspondent Darren McCaffrey .
He asks whether it is now a policy of Labour that economic success is not just measured by data, but also by how people in the UK feel.
If that is the case, how is that worked out?
Ms Reeves says: "In the end, what success looks like is how people feel. Whether there is money in their bank balance, whether they have got enough to pay the rent, the mortgage, the bills.
"For too many people today, that is just not the reality."
She adds: "The mark of success is if people feel they are better off."
Darren also asked about the Ministry of Defence hack, and whether the government is going far enough with China.
Ms Reeves says: "It's deeply concerning."
The frontbencher adds the UK "should work with China where its in our national interest to do so".
But, she says, a "hard line" should be taken in areas of national security.
The Chinese embassy in the UK has responded to a massive data breach involving the Ministry of Defence, a hack which Sky News understands came from China.
In a statement, the embassy said such claims were "completely fabricated and malicious slanders".
"We strongly oppose such accusations. China has always firmly fought all forms of cyber attacks according to law. China does not encourage, support or condone cyber attacks," the embassy said.
"At the same time, we oppose the politicisation of cyber security issues and the baseless denigration of other countries without factual evidence.
"China has always upheld the principle of non-interference in each other’s internal affairs.
"China has neither the interest nor the need to meddle in the internal affairs of the UK.
"We urge the relevant parties in the UK to stop spreading false information, stop fabricating so called China threat narratives, and stop their anti-China political farce."
Rachel Reeves, the shadow chancellor, is delivering a speech in the City of London, where she will seek to get ahead of the Tories' response to a raft of economic data this week.
She begins by commenting on the results of last week's local elections, saying they show there aren't any "no go areas for the Labour party".
Turning to the economy, the Labour frontbencher takes aim at the "economic fiction being peddled by economic ministers", saying: "Labour is ready to serve the interests of the British people."
Ms Reeves says: "By the time of the next election, we can, and should, expect interest rates to be cut, Britain to be out of recession and inflation to have returned to the Bank of England’s target.
"Indeed, these things could happen this month.
“I already know what the prime minister and the chancellor will say in response to one or all these events happening.
"He has been saying it for months now: 'The economy is turning a corner,' 'our plan is working,' 'stick with us.'
"I want to take those arguments head on because they do not speak to the economic reality."
Ms Reeves goes on to accuse the Conservatives of "gaslighting the British public", saying the government is "deluded" and "out of touch" with the reality on the ground.
She adds that the Conservatives economic plan has "failed on its own terms".
"What they're really saying is this is the best you can hope for - but I know that we can do so much better."
The frontbencher says: "I know – warm words are not enough. I do not underestimate the challenges we face. But I am so ambitious for our country.
"I know the huge potential found all across Britain and the constraints that are holding that potential back are not immutable forces.
"They require vision, courage, and responsible government."
She adds: "The prime minister can just say the word, we are ready."
Members of Rishi Sunak's cabinet have been pictured in Downing Street this morning as they arrived for their weekly meeting.
Among the early arrivals were Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron, Home Secretary James Cleverly and Defence Secretary Grant Shapps, who is due to make a statement on the Ministry of Defence data breach later.
Our Asia correspondent Nicole Johnston is in Beijing, where the Chinese foreign minister has responded to allegations the country was behind a cyber attack on the Ministry of Defence.
She says: "It was largely an expected response, it was short, it was to the point, it was pretty much a slap down of these allegations coming out of the UK.
"The language was strong, essentially they called it 'pure nonsense', they said that China 'fights and firmly opposes' all forms of cyber attacks, and this is an attempt to smear other countries.
"This isn't an unusual statement to come from the Chinese when there are these kinds of allegations, we have heard similar allegations before and their response tends to be pretty straight to the point.
"There wasn't a great deal of elaboration there."
Train drivers have kicked off a fresh wave of strikes today.
They are part of a long-running dispute over pay.
Members of Aslef union at 16 rail companies will walk out on different days from today to Thursday.
Additionally, all members will refuse to work any overtime until Saturday.
Here is a full list of the services affected by strikes and when…
As we've been reporting, Sky News understands that the Chinese state has hacked the Ministry of Defence.
Defence Secretary Grant Shapps will make a "planned statement" later today, setting out details of a "multi-point plan to support and protect personnel".
The government will not name the country involved, but Sky News understands this to be China.
The Chinese state is to be accused of two or three attempts at hacking MoD employees - including personnel.
The cyberattack was on a payroll system with current service personnel and some veterans. It is largely names and bank details that have been exposed. All salaries will be paid this month.
A Ministry of Defence spokesperson said: "The defence secretary will make a planned statement to the House of Commons this afternoon setting out the multi-point plan to support and protect personnel."
China has said it "firmly opposes and fights all forms of cyber attacks".
It added it "rejects the use of this issue politically to smear other countries".
We've just heard from the Chinese foreign ministry in the wake of allegations the state hacked a third-party payroll database at the Ministry of Defence.
Later today, Defence Secretary Grant Shapps will update the House of Commons on the breach, targeting service personnel.
Now, China's foreign ministry has said it "firmly opposes and fights all forms of cyber attacks".
Labour's Darren Jones has admitted the UK's relationship with China is "complex", but stopped short of naming the state an "enemy" of the UK.
Asked how Labour view the country, he said: "The relationship is complex and there's a number of different areas where, for example, we have to work together on climate change and saving the planet is one of those.
"So we need to cooperate where we can, but we also need to challenge China, where there's clear evidence of a need for challenge, whether that's about its actions within its own borders or its aggression with other countries.
"And if the evidence is clear today, for example about it trying to hack UK Ministry of Defence systems, clearly we would call that out.
"The relationship will be changing over time, but of course in opposition you don't have access to all of the intelligence.
"So we'll need to look at that in the round if we win the election later this year."
Tobias Ellwood, the former defence minister, has insisted China is "not an enemy" of the UK "right now", but is "certainly a competitor".
In the wake of news of a breach at the Ministry of Defence, Mr Ellwood was asked if China is an enemy.
"The enemy is a very, very strong word," he says. "They're certainly a competitor.
"We need to wake up to the fact that over the last 30 years we've failed to defend our rules based order and China's growing economic clout has now allowed it to pursue a very different interpretation of that rules based order.
"They are progressively extending their vast economic and military influence well beyond China itself, collecting up countries that then support that.
"Left unchecked our world will split into two dangerously competing spheres of influence. That's where this is all heading.
"So, yes, it's not an enemy right now. There needs to be an off ramp. China is not going away.
"But right now, we have two competing approaches as to how our world should focus, where it should go. And they eventually will clash. Seriously clash in the next decade."
