How to Charter a Private Boat to Bahamas From Florida
Published July 26, 2022
The Bahamas is a go-to retreat for Floridians that want to have a little break. While most get to the archipelago by plane, it’s also possible to head there by sea.
We strongly recommend that you charter a private boat to the Bahamas from Flordia. Doing so is much better than sharing a ferry with so many other people.
So how much does it cost to charter a boat from Florida to the Bahamas? Well, that depends on several factors like the season and what kind of vessel you will be chartering.
Nevertheless, a chartered trip to the Bahamas often lasts a week so it’s safe to say you’ll be spending a few thousand bucks.
The Seafari Powercat Ultrawide
Our main vessel is the Seafari Powercat Ultrawide. It’s a catamaran-type yacht that’s 42 ft. long and 22 ft. wide. As you can expect, it comes with loads of amenities to make sure that you have a trip of a lifetime. Examples of these amenities include refrigerators, freezers, wifi, basic fishing equipment, a deck shower, and a wireless sound system.
The Seafari can host up to twelve people, including the captain. It has three bedrooms that have three beds each. Also, the yacht has a shower so staying clean will not be a problem. Lastly, the Seafari is fairly new, being built in 2010, making it completely seaworthy and comfortable to ride.
