Group Yacht Excursions in Fort Lauderdale — 20, 30, 50 and 100 Guests
Most yachts in Fort Lauderdale carry 13 guests, the Coast Guard limit for a private charter of this kind, so a group of 20, 30, 50 or 100 books one of the inspected party and event yachts that come north from Miami: 20-person yachts from about $1,500 for three hours, the 50 to 100 guest event yacht by quote, each with crew.
Yacht Events in Fort Lauderdale — Every Celebration, One Private Boat
20-person yacht rental Fort Lauderdale
The 20 to 25 guest party yachts and catamarans, from about $1,500 for three hours plus the relocation from Miami, with the deck and the sound system for it.
30 to 50 guests
The large catamarans and the party yacht with the second deck, quoted by the hour; a bar and catering become sensible at this size.
100-guest event yacht
The inspected event yacht with a dining deck and a dance floor, booked furthest ahead and quoted per event with the crew and the dock. Weddings at this size are on yacht weddings.
Reunions, team outings, tour groups
A reunion takes the three-hour cruise and the sandbar; a team outing takes the afternoon with a bar, on corporate yacht charters; a tour group takes two yachts rafted at Lake Sylvia when the count is odd.
Two yachts instead of one
For 20 to 26 guests, two thirteen-guest yachts rafted together at Lake Sylvia are often cheaper than one party yacht and give the group two decks, two captains and a swim platform each; the boats run in company and tie up for the stop. The desk prices both ways and says which is the better buy for your date.
Catering for groups
Trays per head, a bartender per 25 guests, a chef for the seated dinners; chosen when you book, like everything on Fort Lauderdale yacht events.
Larger yachts that come north from Miami
Any of these starts from a Fort Lauderdale dock for a relocation fee, usually $300 to $600, or meets you at Haulover; ask and the desk quotes it.
Three to start with: the 2 Sundancer (44 ft, up to 13 guests), the Formula (40 ft, up to 13 guests) and the Seacrecy (40 ft, up to 13 guests).

Group yacht questions
Why do most boats stop at 13?
Federal passenger rules: a private charter of this kind carries at most 13 guests whatever the boat’s length. Inspected vessels carry more.
How much for 20 people?
From about $1,500 for three hours on a 20-guest party yacht, plus the relocation from Miami.
Can we split the cost?
Yes. One person books; the desk can send a per-head figure for the group.
Is there seating for everyone?
Yes, on the inspected yachts; the deck plan is sent with the quote.
Book for a big group
Send the headcount, the date and the hours, and the desk quotes the yacht that carries everyone. Text or call the Fort Lauderdale desk on (954) 246-3636, or WhatsApp the same number.
