Food & Beverage:

We suggest Ellie’s Bakery, Cozy Caterers & the Pearl Street Café for your catering needs, but you can bring food from any vendor of your choice.

To Tour or Not To Tour:

• Some guests prefer to listen to our narrated tour, while others prefer to socialize with some tunes in the background, it’s totally up to YOU! For background music, our vessels are equipped with Bluetooth technology, a sound system, Sirius XM and Pandora, or you can connect your own phone/playlist to our Bluetooth.

What to Bring:

• The boats are uncovered, please dress appropriately. Hats, sunglasses, cold beverages & sunscreen are all recommended in high season. Bring jackets/windbreakers during cooler months.

• Customers may reschedule (subject to availability) or receive a full refund with 72 hours advance cancellation notice only. Please contact us by telephone to cancel your charter.
• Same-day cancellations, late arrivals and no-shows are non-refundable and are not eligible for rescheduling.

Weather Related Cancellations:

• All of our charters typically run in light rain and other moderate weather conditions. We do not cancel charters due to inclement weather until approximately 15-30 minutes prior to departure, as the weather changes so quickly in New England.
• Our charters may launch a few minutes late if we are experiencing a passing storm/shower. We do not allow cancellations/refunds in this case, we simply ask that you are patient and wait it out with us.
• If we do cancel your charter due to weather, you may reschedule (subject to availability) or receive a full refund.
• We reserve the right to cancel our charters in the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions.
