Why we don’t list a price here

Charter rates move with the date, the season and the boat. Rather than publish a number that’s wrong by the time you read it, we show live pricing for your exact date the moment you request it — with the a licensed captain already included, so the number you see is the number you pay.

Package questions

How much does a Lake Norman boat charter cost?

Charters are priced by the hour and vary by date, season and boat. A licensed captain is included in every package — there is no separate captain fee. The Double Decker has a 4-hour minimum; both tritoons have a 3-hour minimum. Live pricing for your exact date appears when you request a booking.

Which package should we book?

Every package is billed by the hour, so the length is yours to set. Four hours is the sweet spot and what most groups book; add more if you want a longer day. The Signature Day suits most celebrations, the Half Day is a good first trip, the All-Dayer is built for out-of-town groups, and the Tubing Run is the pick when watersports are the priority.

Can we customize a package?

Yes — every package is a starting point, not a script. Tell your captain what you want when you book (party cove, quiet sandbar, tubing, a grill-out, a proposal) and the route is built around it.

What is included in every package?

A licensed captain, life jackets for every guest, floats, and a Bluetooth sound system. The Double Decker adds a waterslide, grill, refrigerator and karaoke mic; both tritoons include a tube.
