Private Luxury Yacht Charters, BYOB & Dolphins
Overview
We are a family owned luxury yacht charter business. Come enjoy a BYOB day of sailing and seeing the historic sites of Charleston from the water on one of our sailboats. We offer hourly, daily, or customized tours according to your desires for up to 6 guests maximum (USCG Rules & Regulations). Sit back and relax while a professional crew caters to your every need on your private yacht. We offer 2 boats to choose from (32ft and 36ft).
