Your Questions, Answered

  • We book the boats. You bring the vibes.

    Yotty is your go-to for Gold Coast boat charters — birthdays, hens, corporate things that don’t feel corporate, sunset cruises, the works.

    We match you with the right boat, handle the details, take payment, and make it all feel very seamless and very fun.

    Less admin. More champagne.

  • Through us.

    We confirm availability, take payment, lock it in and coordinate with the operator behind the scenes.

    You get one point of contact.
    We handle the moving parts.

  • Once you’ve chosen your boat and date:

    • We send you a booking confirmation
    • You pay the deposit or full amount (depending on timing)
    • We secure the vessel

    Simple. Secure. No chasing multiple people.

  • Depends on the boat.

    Some are fully licensed (hello cocktails and catering packages).
    Some are BYO legends (yes to your own champagne tower).

    We’ll tell you exactly what’s allowed before you book — no awkward dockside surprises.

  • Boats can handle more than your group chat can.

    Charters go ahead in most weather conditions.
    If conditions are genuinely unsafe, the operator will reschedule or follow their weather policy.

    Light rain ≠ cancellation excuse.

  • Depends on the vessel.

    Some are intimate and luxe.
    Some are full-send party platforms.

    Tell us your guest count and we’ll match you properly.

  • Sometimes.

    Some boats require a refundable security bond in case someone confuses “boat party” with “demolition derby.”

    If a bond applies, we’ll tell you upfront.

  • On many boats, yes.

    Some offer swim stops, float mats, paddleboards, beach drop-offs — the works.

    Some require a swimming add-on or crew supervision.

    Tell us if ocean dips are essential and we’ll factor that in.

  • Within reason, yes.

    Most operators allow tasteful decorations (balloons, signage, themes).
    Nothing that damages surfaces or leaves glitter trauma.

    If you’re planning something elaborate, we’ll check first.

  • Birthdays.
    Hens & bucks.
    Corporate-but-make-it-cool cruises.
    Sunset sessions.
    Just-because-it’s-Saturday charters.

    If it involves people and vibes, we can probably float it.

  • Prime Saturdays in peak season?
    As early as possible.

    Midweek sunset cruise?
    You’ve got more flexibility.

    If you have a specific date, lock it in sooner rather than later.

  • Absolutely not.

    We do:
    • Luxe yachts
    • BYO cruisers
    • Catamarans
    • Corporate-friendly vessels
    • Relaxed sunset boats

    It’s less about “party” and more about “what’s your vibe?”
