FAQs 

What is this? How do I join?
The original and biggest Black yacht meetup! A full weekend of events and a day on the water!

​

How do I get on a boat?
 - Start your own crew
 - Join an existing crew

Join the GroupMe or Facebook pages. Links in IG bios.

Can I order food/drinks on the water? How do I prepare?
Picture this as floating "glamping." BYOB food & drinks for your whole crew. Don’t forget essentials like water, ice, sunscreen, towels, cups, and plates. You can hire Dockside Delivery to handle this for you.

 

Is It Safe?

Registration includes safety prep, life guards and tie-up organization with staff. However, always be cautious—you are on a large body of water. Safety is IMPORTANT.

​

My charter said they don't need to attend the call or register.
Everyone must attend the call and register. This is for your safety. You need to ensure they understand the plan on the water, the rules for tying up, and that they have the proper equipment. If they refuse, book at your own risk. We will not let you tie up, but you are free to be out on the water.

​

Can I use a travel agency or group to handle this?
At your own risk. We are not associated with any travel groups or companies.

​

Can I book a boat through you?
We provide a marketplace for you to connect with charter companies and captains. We allow them to list for your convenience, but we do not vouch for or take responsibility for any third-party transactions.

​

Can I just register and attend?
No. You need to book a boat and a captain first. See above.

​

Registration for the water Is Closed — Can register late?
If registration is closed, that means we are out of flags and cannot register more people.

​

What Is the Difference Between AM / PM / All Day?
When you charter a boat, it is done in four-hour blocks. Each time block will “link” or connect with other boats in the same time slot. If you have multiple boats, it’s best to keep them all within the same time block.
