The decision that matters

A sport cruiser or the Marquis 690?

For a smaller group, both the way you spend the day and the spaces you use matter. Decide whether the focus is an active outing, a sunset cruise or a social celebration aboard a larger motor yacht.

Where Coastal fits

Let the occasion shape the yacht choice.

A family milestone or a gathering of several couples can be as much about conversation as the destination. Coastal’s Marquis 690 offers a salon and outdoor spaces for a private waterway cruise with up to 20 guests. View the seating arrangement and ask how your food, drinks and celebration plans would fit aboard.

A useful distinction

When to look more closely at SafeHaven Charters.

SafeHaven lists a Formula sport cruiser, a captain, basic beverages and BYOB-friendly outings. For a group within its advertised limit, review the specific itinerary and amenities against the kind of day you want. Its starting price is not a matched quote for a Coastal charter.

Bring these questions to your quote

Make your proposal specific.

01

What duration does the starting price cover?

02

Which water activities are included and available for this date?

03

Where can everyone sit comfortably during the planned cruise?

Ask both operators for the same date, guest count and duration. Compare the complete price, not unmatched starting rates.

A question worth asking.

What if my guest list grows beyond 12?

Tell the operator before booking and obtain a confirmed capacity. Coastal’s Marquis 690 is an alternative to evaluate for groups up to 20; do not assume a smaller vessel can add guests.

How do I request a Coastal Yacht Tours quote?

Share your date, number of guests, preferred duration and occasion through our inquiry form. Ask the team to confirm the meeting point, included services and total price before booking.
