We do not allow the boat to be taken out of the slip. Your rental is specifically for staying aboard overnight. Even if you have sailing experience, our insurance does not allow any sailing unless we take you.
We can explore and arrange a sailing excursion during your stay as well.
Do we allow PETS? Pets must be approved BEFORE reserving and are a case-by-case basis. We love pets and have 2 cats and 2 dogs ourselves; however we do not bring them with us to the boat due to extra cleaning, wear and tear on the boat, and barking at the marina. If you are requesting to bring your furr-baby, you must inquire. We normally approve SMALLER, NON-SHEDDING pets for a nominal $75 fee. Dogs that shed and are mid-size or larger breeds are not approved. Boat life is unique and we've had issues in the past with dog hair all over our couches, floors, and on top deck which requires a double cleaning. So please inquire about bringing your pet(s) BEFORE booking. We appreciate your understanding.
If you love the water and are passionate about unique experiences, our yacht will be above and beyond what any hotel condo can come close to. She's securely docked in a slip with “shore power” (i.e. full electricity), air conditioning (2 units), heating, kitchen with dual sinks, hot/cold filtered water, refrigerator, freezer, pantry storage, microwave, coffee maker, electric skillet, Yeti cooler, sleeping quarters (up to 5*), bathroom head, salon living room, television, couches, linens and towels provided, beach supplies, fishing poles, 2-person kayak, and much more!
* In regards to sleeping arrangements, please inquire if you have more than 3 adults in your party. 2 adults can easily sleep in the queen bed located in the aft master cabin. 1-2 adults or children can sleep in the forward V-berth but that is the size of a twin bed. 2 children can easily sleep in the V-berth. There is also a sofa in the salon AND our salon table can be pushed down into an additional small bed. However, we ask guests not to push down the table unless absolutely necessary. There are also cushions and extra sheets available if you’d like to sleep on deck and watch the stars at night!

Our yacht is securely tied up in its own private slip at the marina. You will have other boats next to you. She is spaciously comfortable inside, a short walk or drive to public beach access, and is safely accessible in the marina and surrounding town area.
Yacht amenities:
* She has two(2) cabins (“forward” and “aft”).
* Our yacht galley (kitchen) offers a dual sink, filtered hot and cold water, kitchenware and plates/cups, refrigerator, freezer, cabinet storage for your food pantry items, coffee maker, microwave, toaster, George Foreman grill, electric skillet. There is also a BBQ grill, picnic table and hammock at the dock master office for your use. You’ll have everything you need to keep and prepare food. However we encourage you to enjoy some of our local restaurants and cuisine. Inside our welcome document are recommended restaurants!
* A head (bathroom) with complimentary toiletries, shower supplies, etc. (see notes at bottom) … we do ask guests to use the marina restroom rather than the toilet on board.
* There are eight(8) opening port-holes and three(3) hatches that provide plenty of fresh ocean breeze!
* There are storage cubbies and a closet for all your luggage.
* Television, radio, card games and plenty of books to keep you relaxed.
* Immediately upon going down below you’ll be amazed by the spectacular custom teak interior throughout the boat. We feel the teak alone and walk-around aft cabin sets this vessel far apart! Also, you'll see how spacious she is with plenty of storage all around.
* Also on the boat you can take advantage of our kayak, fishing poles, fishing equipment, casting nets, beach equipment, and more. If you have questions about provided supplies or beach items, simply inquire. We have allocated one of the bathrooms to be for storage as well as an additional dock patio chair.
* On deck of the yacht, the cockpit is extremely spacious and this is where you'll enjoy the sunset and sunrise views! We've added a private table that you can enjoy a meal and/or drinks while relaxing and appreciating the sound of the water, dolphins and birds flying by.
Our marina provides even more amenities:
* Short walk or drive to the beach
* Laundry
* Free showers and bathrooms (see note at bottom)
* BBQ grill, picnic table and seating
* Free parking (decal provided & required)
* Marina store providing ice, beer, water, small snacks and various supplies
* The marina is a short walk, bike, car or Uber ride to the Carolina Beach pier, the Carolina Beach boardwalk, and dozens of bars and restaurants.
We'll have the yacht professionally cleaned and awaiting your arrival! Self-check in. No one will greet you unless requested. Just let us know!
We live a few hours away in Raleigh, NC but we have several people onsite who can be available as needed.
Important notes:
* Sailing charters can be added for additional fee and options are day sail or evening sunset sail ($650). Up to 6 people and always weather and Captain dependent. Inquire about sailing asap upon booking your stay aboard. Sailing is a BONUS so if we cannot take you sailing, please do not let that be such a disappointment that it ruins your trip!
We'll touch base a few days before your stay as well.
* Starting the yacht engine or taking the boat out on the water is not permitted.
* Instead of hard luggage suitcases, bring soft luggage bags.
* Heavy drinking is not permitted onboard. Safety is essential and we ask all guests to act responsibly. You are responsible for own safety onboard and on the dock.
* NOTE ABOUT BATHROOM AND SHOWER: You and your guests having the right expectation is crucial to have an incredible experience. We do all we can to EXCEED your expectations.
We prefer guests to use the marina facilities for the restroom/shower rather than onboard. We do have an onboard toilet for emergencies. Waste is pumped into an onboard holding container that can easily fill up quickly when used frequently. Therefore, we ask (and appreciate) guests helping us by using the marina restroom as much as possible! We’re only a few steps away from the marina facilities. Contact me to inquire about this further. We do NOT have a shower on board.
Shower and restroom facilities are common use areas at the marina where marina boaters and transient boats passing by also use. Therefore, please understand and be aware that cleanliness is beyond our control. We recognize this is a challenge and appreciate your understanding of boat life. Expect “glamping” (i.e. glorified camping) conditions for your bathroom and shower use.
We look forward to your stay aboard Why Knot!!
