Welcome to the Motoryacht Kismet, the perfect large party boat for your special occasion. Kismet is a USCG inspected vessel requiring no bareboat contracts. We follow all federal laws for safety and operate with two uniformed professional crew who operate the vessel and cater to your needs. We have been operating charters in Charleston since 2009 with our three yachts and have held the #1 position on TripAdvisor since 2010. Our yachts are kept to the highest standards of cleanliness and like new conditions for every guest.
We specialize in summer time swim parties and include rafts for your enjoyment. We operate over 200 Bachelorette parties every summer on average but also perfect for large families and corporate groups looking for a comfortable sightseeing tour of the harbor including dolphin sightings and informative history tours. We also are one of the only boats operating year round as Kismet is an all weather, all season boat with heat and enclosed cockpit for the winter months.
For the summer, we include all the swim toys and rafts, we can anchor in a calm cove and guests can enjoy the rafts as they partake in their favorite beverages or food while listening to the excellent Bluetooth sound system.
BYOB or have it catered through Caviar and Bananas, Caviar and Bananas has been serving us since 2010 and can deliver gourmet charcuteries, lunch platters, and dinner platters including wine and beer directly to the boat prior to departure. You will need to contact Ryan with the catering department at Caviar and Bananas with advanced notice.
Trips start at a minimum of 2 hours and can extend up to 8 hours total.
Since we run regular scheduled charters daily please submit a request and we will modify the times to fit our schedule if possible.
Gratuities are appreciated, the crews operating the vessel are not the owners and like the food and beverage industry, gratuities are a major part of their pay. The industry standard is 18-20% of the charter fee paid in cash or Venmo.
