What if I’m running late the day of my charter?

While we understand delays happen, extending the charter may not be possible due to availability. Charters are scheduled according to the reservation’s start and stop times. Should extended time be possible, an additional charge will be incurred. If you are running late, please contact your captain with anticipated arrival time.

How many people can come aboard for my charter?
All of our charters aboard LEI Boat Charter are Bareboat charters and therefore the max capacity is 12 guests.

What is a bareboat charter?
A bareboat charter is a vessel that is leased by the owner to another person (a charterer) for a period of time and the charterer has the right to choose their own crew. Once the charterer takes possession of the vessel, the charterer becomes entirely responsible for the safe navigation of the vessel and its passengers. The owner of the vessel is generally not responsible for any collision, personal injuries, and wages for the crew. The charterer is responsible for the vessel’s crew, fuel, insurance, any maintenance and repairs, and any liability associated with use and possession of the vessel. The charterer must have the option of selecting and paying crew and may discharge the master or any crew member without referral to the owner. The owner may require general levels of proficiency for the crew that is retained based on federal statutes; and charterers and passengers are solely responsible for making sure they understand and agree to the terms of any bareboat charter agreement.
