When you sail with us, you’ll immediately see what makes us different. From checking in, to setting sail, then returning safe and sound, we strive to provide an incredible experience for every single person who climbs aboard. Our professional, certified, and fun crew go the extra mile to ensure we provide 5-star service on every sail or cruise!
Our award winning fleet of yachts are of the finest quality and kept to the highest standards. Fate and Mystique are the largest sailboats available for Charter in all of Charleston at 43ft and 50ft, only allowing 6 passengers is not a function of size but regulations set by the coast guard. The motor yacht Kismet is in a class of its own, while most competitors have pontoon boats, Kismet is a true picnic boat motor yacht with class and style capable of carrying 23 passengers and allowing swimming. Our Scout Runabout, Southern Charm is the perfect vessel to explore isolated island beaches or just cruising in style.
Whether you are looking for an action-packed sailing race adventure, craving a relaxing afternoon cruise soaking in the warm Charleston sun lounging on the bow, shark tooth hunting on a barrier island, partying with your bachelorette party on Kismet or making some new memories while marveling at the gorgeous sunset. Whatever you are into, we can accommodate with plenty of southern charm to go around.
