over Thirty Years of Boston’s Best Harbor Charters
Planning private celebrations on the water since 1989.
Boston Yacht Charters is an independent agency dedicated to finding you the right boat. We bring over three decades of local maritime experience to the table, making the planning process easy and ensuring your time on the water is exactly what you imagined.
Expertise you can trust
Deep Roots in Boston Harbor
We’ve been here since 1989, making us the longest-running private charter agency in the area. Our perspective is unique because we have been on both sides of the business—we previously owned and operated five charter vessels ourselves. This hands-on history means we know the technical side of motor and sailing vessels inside and out, allowing us to give you honest, practical advice that you won’t get from a standard booking site.
Your dedicated partners
Real Planning for Real Events
We do more than just book a boat. We work with you as partners to make sure your event actually stands out. Whether you are planning a surprise birthday, a milestone birthday, or a corporate dinner, we love brainstorming with our clients to make their ideas work. Our job is to handle the logistics and fine details so your cruise feels like a custom experience built specifically for your vision.
A fleet for every group
A Vessel for Every Occasion
Our fleet covers the whole spectrum of maritime style. You can host an intimate group of 12 on a 103-foot luxury yacht like the TRILOGY, or throw a major event for 360 guests on the FREEDOM catamaran. We help you plan the perfect route through historic Boston Harbor, taking in sights like the USS Constitution and the North End. If you are looking further afield, we also connect clients with vetted vessels in Newport, Cape Cod, New York, and Florida.
Quick booking and broad reach
Ready When You Are
Sometimes the best plans happen at the last minute. We specialize in short-notice cruises and can often make same-day arrangements possible. Our reach extends from the Charles River to the North and South Shores and well beyond. Whether you need an upscale classic yacht for a sunset reception or a high-capacity riverboat with a dance floor, we will match you with the exact boat that fits your group.
