The decision that matters
Start with the guest list—not just yacht length.
Planning a bachelorette weekend, family outing or birthday cruise? Confirm who is coming before comparing boats. A yacht’s physical size does not tell you how many people your booking can accommodate.

Where Coastal fits
Keep your whole group together.
For a party of 14 to 20, capacity becomes the first decision. Coastal’s Marquis 690 is offered for up to 20 guests, so ask about keeping your gathering on one yacht. For a smaller party, move beyond capacity and look at where everyone will sit, chat and take in the views.

When to look more closely at Nautical Yacht Charters.
Nautical Yacht Charters describes itself as a local bareboat fleet operator and publishes its guest limit. That makes the booking arrangement worth understanding alongside the boat itself. Ask who supplies each service and how captain selection works for the vessel you choose.

Nautical Yacht Charters: comparison FAQs.
Does a 60-foot yacht automatically take 20 guests?
No. Use the operator’s confirmed booking limit, not a visual estimate of deck space. Nautical publishes a maximum of 13 including the charterer; Coastal advertises up to 20 aboard its Marquis 690.
