MOTORYACHT AND RUNABOUT CHARTERS

Lake Tahoe, there's nothing like it!

2024 will be our inaugeral season at Lake Tahoe. While we've had boats up at the lake many times in the past, this will represent the first time we've made vessels available at both north and south shores at the same time. In the north, most excursions will leave from North Tahoe Boat Rentals, a great Partner for us and ideally equipped to provide our licensed Captains for trips aboard the Chris craft sedan, Bombay 'n Tonic. All charters are reserved for Vintage Yacht Club members only. If you are not yet a member and would like to join or to acquire fractional use tokens which can be redeemed for experiences at Lake Tahoe, contact us at 844-Old-Boat or via email at [email protected].


We will be starting the season with one runabout in the north and one in the South. These will be availble either Capatained, or as a bareboat charter. Should uyou want to bareboat charter, be prepared to prove your capability to our Port Captain before embarking your guests. If you are seeing this wll before the summer season is upon us, and you'd likke to reserve a spot for yourself before the season is opon us, contact us 844-Old-Boat and let us know what type of experiences you prefer (motoryacht or runabout bareboat charter). Then we can refer you to the appropriate program which will accommodate your desires, wehether your interest is in Lake Thoe only or in having access to all our Vintage Yacht Club venues across the west.

Motoryacht and runabout experiences are available via the purchase and redemption of fractional use tokens prior to your arrival at the lake. With tokess, you can resreve a cruise or overnight aboard Bombay 'N Tonic , or bareboat reserve a classic runabout or utility for four hour periods.

Bareboat reservations (runabouts only, Bombay 'N Tonic is Captained) will only be available to those who have demonstrated an ability to operate one of our vessels with our Port Captain. To reserve a bareboat charter you must be licensed and capable of signing the appropriate Vintage Yacht Club indemnification and hold harmless agreement.

As it lay there with the shadows of the mountains brilliantly photographed upon its still surface, I thought it must surely be the fairest picture the whole earth affords.” Mark Twain
