Question 1

What are the start times and ending times of each charter?

Accepted Answer

Typically charters run for 7 days, Sunday to Saturday, unless outlined differently on the specific charter webpage. Guests are able to board at 9 am on the charter start date, and depart at 9 am on the charter end date.

Question 2

What if I'm traveling alone?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry, we are all in this adventure together! Individuals joining a mixed group will be sharing a cabin with one other traveler. Each cabin has queenish sized beds, so there is plenty of space. Also, cabins are mainly used for sleeping. Mainly 😉

Question 3

What do I need to bring?

Accepted Answer

Great Question! Typically guests are wearing a swimsuit during the day (or less), and light clothing in the evenings. Most charter guests will only need one long pant and shirt for your charter, the rest should be shorts, tanks, tees, and all the fun banana hammocks you can fit in! You will also need personal toiletries, a beach towel, and water socks are  a great idea. I also recommend ear plugs or a sleep mask for light sleepers. Linens are provided.

Question 4

What about storage and luggage?

Accepted Answer

Well, we are on a boat, so space is limited. We recommend using soft sided luggage, and not over packing. Please, no hard sided luggage, larger than a carry-on size.

Question 5

Will I get sea sick?

Accepted Answer

You could. It is recommended that if you are unsure, or you do have a tendency to get motion sickness, that you bring a preventative medication, like Dramamine, with you. Motion sickness medication might not be available on the vessel we are using.

Question 6

Do I have to pay all at once?

Accepted Answer

Nope! I take a deposit upfront, fully refundable for 48 hours or until the charter agreement has been signed. Then the remaining balance is due 60 days prior to departure.

Question 7

Are these trips sexual?

Accepted Answer

If you are wondering if my charters are orgies, no they are not. Is there freedom to vacation as your authentic self? Absolutely! This might include nudity and sexual actives. My intention is to create a safe, welcoming space where everyone feels comfortable to be their authentic selves, and consent is king!

Question 8

How can I charge my devices on the boat?

Accepted Answer

There are USB plugs in each cabin, and throughout the sailboat, for you to charge your devices. Please plan on using only USB to charge any devices that need to be charged while aboard.

Question 9

Do I need to bring sunscreen?

Accepted Answer

Bring some, but I'll have extra onboard. I recommend bringing a small bottle of your favorite sunscreen. The sun is very intense out on the water. I will always have extra sunscreen, just in case!

Question 10

What do you mean by adventure vacation?

Accepted Answer

Basically, if you can handle "glamping," you can handle a Nauti Daddy Sailing Vacation. We are aboard yachts that sell new for around $1.5 million, so you will have most of the  comforts of home, but there will have to be some concessions made. Small sacrifices in order to sail and explore magical places by water!

Question 11

Should I plan on tipping the crew?

Accepted Answer

Tipping can feel complicated these days, but life on a sailboat is its own world. Your Captain and Chef are putting in exhausting days for a full week, making sure you’re safe, well fed, and wrapped in an experience you’ll remember for a long time.  They’re up before you, working after you’ve gone to bed, and caring for you in a way that goes way beyond a job description. They’re the reason the boat feels warm, effortless and unforgettable.  If tipping is about honoring people who give you everything they’ve got, a sailing crew is the clearest example. They work their cute butts off for you, and a tip is how you tell them you felt the love!

Question 12

Head on the Boat (Toilet Addition)

Accepted Answer

If you can handle the head situation on a sailboat (bathroom), you can handle this  adventure vacation. Toilets on a sailboat run a little differently than what we are used to on land. They basically work the same, but the operation is a little more comprehensive. Not difficult, not gross, just different. Here is a good instructional video, so you have a better understanding of how they operate. Most important part, no paper products in the bowl!

Question 13

Can I get claustrophobic? See what it's like aboard a catamaran sailboat:

Accepted Answer

If you have a real issue with small spaces, this might not be the trip for you. The cabins are small, but have large windows and extra ventilation. Remember, cabins are mainly for sleeping. Please watch this video to get a feel of what it's like to stay aboard a catamaran sailboat. This is part of the adventure!

Question 14

What if I have more questions?

Accepted Answer

I want to be upfront and paint as clear of a picture as possible, so you are comfortable before and during our sailing vacation. If you still have questions, I recommend scheduling a quick video call with me, Captain Beau. I have no problem answering your charter questions, and putting you at ease with your booking.

Question 15

CPAP Daddy?

Accepted Answer

Do you need a CPAP machine to sleep? This can be tough, but there is a solution. They make travel CPAP machines that can be rented or purchased, and work with USB-A charging. This is the only type of reliable power we have out on the water,  so this is the style machine you would need for my charters. If we used a standard 110/220v CPAP machine, we would have to run a generator on the boat all night long. You would probably sleep well, but the rest of the guys aboard, wouldn't. I hope you can understand.
