    FAQs

    Yes. If you book for 7–8 passengers, United States Coast Guard (USCG) regulations require a Bareboat Charter, and you must pay the captain and fuel separately in addition to your prepaid charter fee. An additional $100 per hour is due on arrival and paid directly to your captain. If you book 7+ but arrive with fewer, you still owe the additional $100 per hour.

    Arrive at the marina at least 30 minutes before your charter (longer on weekends and holidays), and be at the boat 20 minutes prior. If you arrive late, your time on the lake will be shorter.

    No. Use the restroom at the marina near the parking lot before you board. If needed, your captain can stop along the way.

    We did the tour with Captain Brandon and he was very nice and accommodating. We went around emerald bay and had a great time. My only complaint is that it felt too short. I felt like we didn’t get to swim as much as I would’ve liked because it was time to head back, but he mentioned we can ask about extending the time next time. I think 3 hrs would be better than 2 if you really want to spend time on the water. I would def do this tour again just extend the time.
