Organizing an event on the water sounds fun, right? From an elegant wedding to a party with friends, any event inside a boat or yacht can become unique. However, one of the most recurring questions is how to choose the right boat or yacht for you.

To help with that, at SpacePal we bring you a guide to ensure your event is a successful one. Check it out!

How to choose the ideal yacht for your event: step by step

Determine the type of event:

The type of event you choose to celebrate will influence the type of boat you need to choose. Some points to help you make this decision are:

  • Formal or informal? A formal event like a wedding or business party will require a more luxurious boat with high amenities. On the other hand, if you want to keep it informal, then you can choose a simpler and therefore less expensive one.
  • Day or night? Night events on a yacht add a touch of elegance, especially if accompanied by good lighting. Meanwhile, daytime events might mean outdoor parties using the water as a major complement.
💡
SpacePal Tip: Consider having creative lighting for night events and outdoor spaces for daytime events.

Number of guests:

The size of the boat or yacht you choose will depend exclusively on the number of people you want for your event. To ensure everything goes perfectly, remember to make a guest list to keep track of the number and ensure everyone can enjoy comfortably.

Amenities and facilities:

Depending on the type of boat or yacht you choose, they will offer different amenities. Some options you might want to consider are:

  • Catering: make sure the vessel has kitchen facilities or arrangements to set up catering both indoors and outdoors.
  • Entertainment: for events that include music, consider venues that have sound systems and dance floors.

Location and routes:

The location of the boat can impact your event. Make sure there is parking space for your guests as well as an accessible route for everyone, whether they have a vehicle or are using public transportation.

Terms and rental costs:

Legal issues are fundamental when renting. At SpacePal, we have different vessels that vary in price so that everyone can enjoy their event. Additionally, keep in mind any additional costs that may arise, such as fuel or tips.

Safety and crew:

Like any event, safety is a fundamental point. Check that the boat is fully equipped with recommended safety measures including life jackets, first aid kits, and fire extinguishers. Additionally, ensure that the crew has experience in navigation, safety, and handling any issues that may arise.
