How a Yacht Charter Can Make Your Corporate Event a Success
This is the time of year when many businesses start to think about ways to kick-off the summer, celebrating and rewarding their employees.
On a Luxury Yacht Charter, There is Something for Everyone
A luxury yacht charter offers a variety of options for everyone onboard. Guests can enjoy the scenic trip from comfortable seating on the deck soaking up the sunshine. A DJ with dancing is one of the many entertainment options that can be made available for your guests. If live entertainment is better suited for your event, options can include everything from a piano player and singer to an orchestra. If you are looking for a more focused corporate affair, our team can arrange for a stage, audio equipment and more. This allows for executives to speak to their team, either in a formal or informal setting.
There are many onboard dining options to choose from. Whether you are looking for a more laid back get together with casual dining or a buffet to a cocktail party followed by a four-course sit-down dinner, the options you choose can set the tone for the event.
Accommodations and Capacity Onboard May Surprise You
Many yachts can accommodate anywhere from ten to hundreds of guests, making this an ideal option for your corporate event. Whether a smaller intimate team event or over a hundred, the right yacht charter can ensure that your guests have a comfortable and enjoyable experience onboard.
For a truly unique way to not only reward your team, but also to bring everyone together, consider thinking outside of the box with a luxury yacht charter. Sharing in this one-of-a-kind experience will help to build comradery among your employees, while also providing them with a trip that they will be talking about for years to come.

What to Pack for Your Yacht Charter Experience
There is little as invigorating as a trip on a yacht charter. Enjoying the open water, scenic decks and cityscapes, all while also enjoying the many amenities that a luxury yacht has to offer. While most chartered yachts come equipped with many of the items you need, including a full bar and dining options, there are personal items that you might want to bring onboard.
Don’t Forget the Essentials for a Yacht Charter Day Trip
Comfortable footwear will go a long way to making your trip a pleasant one. Consider packing a pair of sneakers and flip-flops for the most versatile options during your yacht charter experience. Packing sunscreen is also a must as most passengers spend plenty of time on deck enjoying the sights as they cruise along.
For Evening and Formal Events, Pack Light
If your yacht charter experience is a more formal event, whether a dinner cruise, wedding cruise or corporate yacht event, you will want to pack light. Fortunately, your yacht charter will have everything you need onboard, so that you can sit back and enjoy the fine dining, dancing, and many other amenities that the yacht charter has to offer.
You may still want to consider comfortable shoes so that you can dance the night away onboard. For daytime yacht charters, sunscreen is still a must. A light jacket or wrap is a good idea, particularly for a formal function where guests may be wearing sleeveless dresses. Planning ahead for your yacht charter can enhance your comfort and enjoyment of this once in a lifetime event.

We have equipped our ships with sophisticated audiovisual systems, included spaces conducive to business gatherings, and provided expert planners to help choose appropriate design, entertainment and cuisine.
In addition to the unique bonds fostered by a yachting voyage, yachts create a captive audience, ensuring your prospect’s full attention for the entire length of the trip. Moreover, they provide a concrete way of showing how your company thinks ‘out of the box.’
The yacht’s décor can be tailored to show attention to detail while maintaining perspective on the larger issues of family, friends and health. For business holiday parties, a yachting environment provides a unique way of saying thank you by just having fun together.
Organizing a trip on a yacht charter transcends the experience itself. It lets you personalize your pitch to potential clients and show how much you care about their business. It says, “Your business is so important to me, I’d like to pursue it in a special way.”
The Business Party Bonanza program offers more than 20 yachts for parties from two to 750 people. Expert planners help customers select a yacht and organize an event based on personal preferences such as budget, food and beverage service, entertainment and business needs.
