Cruise of Lights December 7 & 8

[78Southwind]

Just got off the phone with this company.
http://paradisoyachtcharters.com/

Their price $3500 for 4 hours and it accommodates up to 55 people.
If we want to add 1 hour, its $750
I asked about booze and they said since they have a liquor license they have to pour the alcohol but they would let us BYOB.
This boat stays in Newport but the lady also said the boat is decorated and the houses are all decorated and they will take us around.
What the lady did say was that Boats dont generally go into Hunting Harbor because the bridge is too low for alot of the boats.

I like this one better than the previous.

So if the math is right it's about $63 a person is this right?

Roughly, Honestly, I would plan on $80-$100 just to be safe incase we want to spend an extra hour and of course there is always the inevitable tax they hit us with. Also depends on the amount of people we get to go.
Im still looking and hoping someone on the boards knows someone with a private boat that can take us all out and we can kick them down the money.

I like this one too. I say 4 hours is plenty. So I say invite people ad lets get 50. Everyone bring booze and ice we are good to go. Do they have cups music?? Stay in Newport

So from what I am gathering, alot of the "charter companies" only sail around Newport Harbor. I cant find a charter company in Huntington Harbor.
Are we married to sailing up to Huntington or can we stay in Newport? From what I hear, people decorate their houses in Newport as well.
Thoughts?

We need someone's private yacht that we can rent for the evening and take us around.
Any word "She's Mine"

I have a call out to my buddy, just waiting to hear back from him.

THese are all fishing boats that cruise the harbor.
Although they are cheaper, they do not allow alcohol on board.
THis is the exact boat that is available.

Out of the 3 I checked out, I think option 2 is the best.

Forgot to ask about cups and music Wendi. I will call back in a bit and ask.
