Birthday on the water

For a small group, a motorboat with an open deck and space under a canopy can be convenient. For a meal, a saloon, table, toilet and enough seats are important.

Count every guest, including children. If a host, photographer or musicians are planned, clarify in advance how they count towards the permitted capacity.

Clarify the rules on your own food and drinks, tableware, corkage, cleaning and decorations. Not every kind of decoration is permitted on board.

Allow time for boarding and congratulations. Tell the captain about the cake, catering and any preferred photo stop.
