Move your next team outing, client event or leadership gathering from the conference room to a private boat on the Potomac. HYC provides captain-led charters from the James Creek Marina with local skyline scenery and vessels for small teams or groups of up to 15.
Private whole-boat charter · USCG captain included · BYOB-friendly · Book in minutes
Have Yachts Club is a full-service private boat-charter concierge on the Potomac. We own and operate our signature Party Pontoon (from $400, up to 8 guests) with a USCG-licensed captain included, and our concierge can arrange a larger boat — a two-deck catamaran or a luxury yacht — for bigger groups on request. One team handles the boat, captain, timing and boarding, so you just show up and enjoy the water.
A private charter creates a relaxed alternative to a conference room for leadership gatherings, employee recognition and client hosting. Everyone boards at the James Creek Marina at 200 V St SW before the captain follows an approved route that may highlight The Wharf, Hains Point and central Washington landmarks or continue toward Alexandria and National Harbor when time and conditions permit. Daytime supports sightseeing and networking, while late afternoon can bridge the workday and an evening program.
Small leadership groups of up to 8 can reserve the Party Pontoon from $400. The two-deck catamaran accommodates up to 15, while luxury yachts can be arranged by our concierge for elevated client entertainment. Every charter is BYOB-friendly and includes a USCG-licensed captain. Send attendees one arrival plan, confirm catering and beverage arrangements in advance, and choose the vessel only after the guest count is firm.
