Once you confirm your reservation, your broker will process your payment.

• If you are booking for a single day and your reservation is confirmed more than 7 days in advance, a deposit of either $1,000 USD or 50% of the total cost of the reservation (whichever is greater) is processed immediately in order to hold the yacht. Once your embarkation date is 7 days away, the remainder of the amount due is processed.
• If you are booking for a single day and your reservation is made 7 days or less in advance, the total price of your reservation is processed immediately.
• If you are booking for a multi-day charter and your reservation is confirmed more than 30 days in advance, a deposit of 50% of the cost of the yacht is processed immediately in order to hold the yacht. Once your embarkation date is 30 days away, the other 50% is collected for the price of the yacht, plus the APA, plus the taxes due.

Terms of refunds are dictated by the Charter Agreement. Generally, once a payment is collected, it is non-refundable. In certain circumstances, as dictated by the Charter Agreement, credits can be provided so you will be able to enjoy your yacht charter at a future date that is convenient for you.

Why is there a 3% credit card convenience charge?

Are my payment details saved on the app, what if your servers get hacked is my payment information really safe.

New York Yacht Charters

New York was one of the original thirteen colonies that formed the United States. To distinguish the state from its city with the same name, people sometimes refer to it as New York State. Explore the city from the water on one of the New York Yacht Charters.

This large state has several different travel regions. These regions include New York City, the Catskills, the Adirondacks, and the Niagara Frontier. Each region has something unique to offer you on your yacht charter.

Seasonally, summer-like conditions prevail from June to early September. Areas in the far southern part of the state and New York City have summer conditions from late May through September. Therefore, summer is the best time to visit New York.

New York | Things to do

What better way to enjoy your New York vacation than by sailing around the city on a private yacht? Choose from various yacht charter packages, including food, drinks, and other amenities, or create your custom itinerary.

A private yacht charter is one of the best ways to take in all the sights of New York City, away from the crowds and congestion.  Your private boat will allow you to get up close and personal with areas like Little Island, Hudson Yards, Fleet Week in May, the 12 Meter Heritage Regatta in June, and the highly anticipated July 4 th fireworks.  A luxury yacht allows you to experience these from the privacy and comfort of a private yacht.  Enjoy an intimate gathering with a small group of friends or plan a larger event, Prestige Yacht Charters has the luxury yacht to accommodate for your group and itinerary.

From Little Island New York to Hudson Yards, See the City’s Skyline Like Never Before

Located in the Hudson River, just west of Manhattan, Little Island is an artificial island park that opened to the public in 2021.  The pier features an innovative design of flowers, trees, and shrubbery that make this a sight to behold from aboard a private yacht.  The landscaping of this island is a spectacular view, with over 66,000 tulips, 114 trees, and over 350 species of flowers.  There is no better seat to view it from than aboard a luxury yacht charter. 

Hudson Yards is one of New York City’s newest neighborhoods on Manhattan’s west side.  This neighborhood is a true cultural experience, with over 14 acres of public gardens and groves.  If you haven’t yet seen Hudson Yards from a private yacht, you will be amazed at how this development has added to the already spectacular NYC skyline.

Upcoming NYC Events to Experience from the Water

In May, New York City will host Fleet Week with an array of ships and demonstrations taking to the city’s water.  This seven-day celebration is rich with events and sailing vessels that are a sight to behold.  June in the city will bring the 12 Meter Heritage Regatta.  A tradition in American yachting, sailing vessels will race in New York Harbor.  Of course, the July 4 th fireworks in New York City simply cannot be missed.  Chartering a private boat will give a front row view of all these upcoming events, without having to worry about crowds.

Prestige Yacht Charters has a variety of luxury yachts available for these sights in the city and upcoming events, giving you the view of a lifetime.
