More info
- Charters are scheduled to maximize your enjoyment on the water and subject to rescheduling due to day of weather limitations (we won't do this unless it's absolutely necessary).
- You never share the boat with anyone outside your group.
- All ages are welcome.
- Boat: "Valor" is a brand new 2023 Jeanneau NC895! This is a professional touring boat that has an enclosed, heated cabin with dinning table, as well as a covered outdoor seating area that is enclosed during the winter, and private bathroom. It's fast, stable, and extremely comfortable! Our boat seats 4 passengers comfortably inside the cabin, and up to a total of 6 passengers very comfortably while offering full 360° views to all!
