      Entire place

      You'll have the entire house boat to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

      Spend The Weekend Aboard Your Own Private Yacht In Historic Charleston

      Under new ownership as of May 2017. Located in the Heart of Charleston's Historic District, Southern Comfort is docked at the Charleston City Marina and less than 50 feet from our gated parking lot.

      We are 3 blocks from the Historic Battery just past the Coast Guard Station, and six "city blocks" from Meeting Street and the Market Area.

      From the magnificent architectural homes of the Battery, and the finest restaurants in the south, to the art and antique shops, Charleston is a place unlike any other.

      PLEASE NOTE IT IS EXTREMELY EXPENSE TO MAINTAIN A BOAT SUCH AS THIS. Therefore the boat books for TWO people. There is an additional guest charge per person up to eight people after the first two. This makes the boat approachable for a couple as well as very economical for larger groups to enjoy the boat. Remember what your parents taught you.. if it’s to good to be true. It probably is. By booking the boat in this way it makes it reasonable for all parties involved. We love sharing out boating experience with people and try very hard to upkeep it. It’s a fantastic way to spend time in Charleston and a very unique experience that most people will not find anywhere else.

      We are not sorry we had this experience on a lively yacht, but we would most likely not rebook. Booked for 6 adults - only had towels for 4. Only 2 coffee mugs available. Overall, the Southern Comfort provided us with a memorable experience we enjoyed.

      Small family wedding
      Our daughter has a really small wedding - seven people total!!! Renting this yacht was perfect for our needs. Easy in and to go places we needed to go. The wedding actually took place on the top deck right before sunset and was lovely. The furniture in the lounge area was very comfortable and there was room for all of us. If you rent this boat remember it is an older boat. The owner is working to repair that are worn or have been abused by other renters but they posed no problems. We loved staying on such a classic boat.
