Please dress appropriately for the weather and your comfort.  Please look at the weather forecast before your charter and plan accordingly. If your trip is during a colder time of the year, early hours, or late hours, then you will want to consider a windbreaker, jacket, or small blanket.

We do ask that that guests wear non-scuff sandals/shoes/flip flops/slippers, avoiding dark colored soles (i.e. black).  We also ask that spray sunscreens  not be used on the boat as the chemicals do damage to cushions (and we want to keep the boat nice for your next trip!).  Marine-safe sun screen lotions are best!

We do not permit any illegal substances or firearms.
