Your Boat. Your Sunset. Your Hamptons.

You want the kind of day your group talks about for years. A private boat, the bride up front, the bay wide open, and not a single stranger on board. That is what we do.


We are Charters in The Hamptons, a family run charter out of Shelter Island. Every bachelorette party charter is private. Your crew, your captain, your day. We have run plenty of them, and we know how to build one that feels like the highlight of the weekend.

The One Day Other Boats Cannot Pull Off

Here is our edge. We sit right between the North Fork and the South Fork. So in one day we can dock near a North Fork winery, anchor for a swim, catch the sunset, and drop you at a Sag Harbor restaurant for dinner. One boat, one captain, the whole region.
 

Boats stuck on one side of the East End cannot do that. From a single base, getting to the other fork eats up an hour each way. From the middle, we reach both sides fast and keep the day moving.

A Day We Have Run Before

Here is one loose plan, just to show what is possible. We pick you up at Greenport in the late morning. You start with a North Fork winery stop near the water. Back on the boat, we anchor in a calm cove for a swim and photos. As the afternoon cools, we cruise toward the sunset, then dock for dinner in Sag Harbor.


Nothing here is fixed. Maybe you want a slow beach day instead. Maybe you want music and dancing the whole time. Tell us what your bride is into and we will build the version she wants.

Choosing The Boat

Different groups want different boats. A small group might want a quiet cruiser. A bigger party might want one of our flagship Pershing yachts, where the boat itself is part of the photo. Tell us your headcount and we will match you to the right one. Every charter is private and quoted for your group.

Make It Your Day

Tell us what you have planned and we will tell you what works on your boat. Music, food, a few touches for the photos. We have done sunset runs, all day island hops, and winery days. We will help you put the pieces together.

​

The water out here is the best backdrop you can ask for. Gold light, open bay, and the Twin Forks on either side. Bring your phones and your cameras. Your captain knows the spots that photograph best.

For Every Bride

Not every bride drinks, and not every day has to revolve around it. A swim stop, a winery lunch, a sunset, and good music make the day either way. Tell us what your group is into and we will plan around it. The point is a great day on the water, however your crew likes to celebrate.

Planning Tips For The Maid Of Honor

A few things make the day smoother. Pick a pickup point close to where the group is staying, so no one drives far. Build in a little buffer, since groups are rarely all on time. And keep the plan simple. The boat, the water, and a couple of stops are usually plenty.


Call us early in the season. Summer Saturdays book up fast, and the best dates go first.

Pickup And How To Book

We pick up at Greenport on the North Fork, which is the closest dock to the wineries, and at Sag Harbor on the South Fork. Our home base is 63 S Menantic Rd, Shelter Island, NY 11964. One number reaches us, and the cousins who run the business still answer the phone.


Every captain holds a USCG (US Coast Guard) license. Mike and JT earned their licenses in 2019 and have run more than 200 charters since. Call (631) 251-1777 or email captain@chartersinthehamptons.com to plan your day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we bring our own drinks and food? Bring what makes it your day. Tell us what you are planning and we will let you know what works on your boat. Every group is different, and so is every boat.

Is there a bathroom on board? Many of our boats have a head, which is the boat word for a bathroom. Tell us your group and we will put you on a boat set up for a full day out.

Can we play our own music? On most boats, yes. Bring your playlist or let your captain handle it. Just ask when you book.

Do you pick up at Greenport for a North Fork winery start? Yes. Greenport is the closest pickup to the North Fork wineries, so we can start your day right there and work back toward dinner.

How many people can come? It depends on the boat. Tell us your headcount and we will match you to a boat with the right Coast Guard capacity. Every charter is private to your group.

Is the evening good for a date or anniversary? It is one of the most popular reasons people book. The trip is private, the pace is slow, and the light does the rest. Tell us the occasion and we will help make it special.

How far ahead should we book? As early as you can. Summer Saturdays fill up first. Call us with your date and we will tell you what is open.
