Private boat charters for groups of 24 to 57
Whether you want the three levels of space on the MV Timeless or the classic feel of a schooner like the SV Liberty Star, we have the right boat for your group. Our team has been hosting events on Boston Harbor and the Charles River since 1989, and we know how to make an outing special. We can often handle short-notice or same-day bookings, so reach out if you have a specific idea you want to talk through with us.
Private Charters for Mid-Sized Groups
The Perfect Fit for 24 to 57 Guests
For over 35 years, Boston Yacht Charters has helped hosts find the right vessel for mid-sized events. This fleet sits perfectly between our private yachts and larger event ships, offering an upscale environment for groups of 24 to 57. We take a hands-on approach to every charter to make sure your time on the water is seamless and memorable.
From Classic Luxury Yachts to Traditional Schooners
A Diverse Fleet for Every Style
Our mid-tier inventory is chosen for its variety. You can choose the MV Timeless, a classic tri-level luxury Burger yacht for 45 guests, or the MV Boston Belle, a double-deck riverboat that accommodates up to 57. If you want a more traditional experience, our authentic sailing vessels like the SV Liberty Star and SV Adirondack III are ideal for groups of 30 who want to enjoy the heritage of a true schooner excursion.
Accommodating 24 to 57 Guests
The Sweet Spot for Intimate Gatherings
This tier is the ideal choice for hosts who need more room than a small yacht provides but still want to keep things personal. With capacities from 24 to 57 guests, these vessels are great for bridal celebrations, corporate mixers, and landmark anniversaries. We focus on matching your group to the right deck layout, ensuring everyone has a front-row seat to the historic Boston Harbor skyline.
Flexible Food and Beverage Options
Catering and Amenities Built for Your Event
Personal service and creativity are what we do best. We work closely with you to handle the specific logistics of your cruise. Catering policies vary by vessel to offer you more flexibility. Ships like the Belle and Timeless feature licensed bars and high-quality food service. Whether you are envisioning a casual sunset sail with appetizers or a formal buffet, we help you find the options that suit your event best.
