Do I need to bring a captain?

Yes. This listing is a bareboat charter—charterers are responsible for selecting and contracting a qualified, licensed captain and any crew.

What is included in the vessel fee?

The vessel charter fee covers use of the Prestige 630 during the booked period; captain, crew, and fuel are typically arranged and paid separately by the charterer.

How many guests can the yacht hold?

Maximum capacity is 13 persons, including the charterer and guests.

Can we swim from the yacht?

Sunset Aboard One & Only: Prestige 630 Yacht Charters from Sarasota

On a Gulf Coast evening off Sarasota, Florida, the Prestige 630 'One & Only' cuts a clean silhouette against a deepening sky. This 63-foot flybridge motor yacht, offered through Kokomo Charters, pairs European design with purposeful performance: expansive glass, an airy salon, three staterooms, and a broad flybridge built for lingering over a sunset. Departures are from Sarasota, FL, and each charter is yours to shape—cruise past waterfront estates, slip into a sheltered anchorage, or hover off a shell-strewn sandbar for a private swim.

Key scenes aboard and ashore define the experience: the commanding flybridge that frames 360-degree views; the hydraulic swim platform that makes water access effortless; the salon and connected aft deck that foster indoor–outdoor living; and the full-beam master and guest staterooms that make overnight stays civilized. On the water you'll notice the region's clear, shallow Gulf—seagrass beds, mangrove-lined shorelines, and occasional oyster bars that change the color of the water from deep blue to lagoon green. Wildlife sightings are common: pods of bottlenose dolphins, wading herons, and courting ospreys offer moving foregrounds to the sunset.

A charter here is part maritime cruise and part regional tour. Captain and crew services are arranged independently by the charterer; Kokomo Charters coordinates the booking and documentation, leaving route and pace in your hands. Typical itineraries include a coastal sweep past Longboat Key and Lido Key, a pause near the sandbars off Siesta Key, or an evening anchorage with a cooling breeze and a thermos of local charcuterie.

Why book this trip? For groups wanting intimacy without compromise, the Prestige 630 blends entertaining spaces and private cabins in a package that's still nimble enough for Gulf waters. It's an excellent choice for celebratory outings, small corporate gatherings, or a slow twilight cruise after a day of island exploration. The yacht’s design highlights sightlines and comfort, elevating what might otherwise be a routine sunset into a cinematic hour.

Practical notes: expect a bareboat charter structure—hire a licensed captain unless you possess proper qualifications; budget separately for crew and fuel; and respect local conservation rules around seagrass and manatee zones. Charter logistics are straightforward: the vessel accommodates up to 13 guests, and pricing varies by duration with 3- and 4-hour sunset options commonly available. Fuel and captain fees are quoted separately and paid by the charterer; Kokomo Charters can facilitate payment but does not employ crew. Pack light provisions, bring biodegradable sunscreen, and arrive at the agreed Sarasota meeting point 15–30 minutes early. For photographers, position on the starboard flybridge for low-angle sun and use a polarizer to cut glare. Small adjustments make an already refined evening.
