The Charles I is a custom-designed 75’ classic riverboat that is the perfect venue for your Boston or Cambridge-based holiday party, offering stunning views of the Charles River and city skylines.

For ease of planning, we include all of the tables, chairs, linens, fresh flower centerpieces, onboard crew, and fuel. We eliminate the hassle of hosting so you can enjoy your event stress-free.
If you are interested in hosting a cocktail-style party on board, we offer delicious dropped-off stationary appetizer menus that are sure to be a hit amongst your guests. From an abundant cheese and charcuterie board to tasty pesto tortellini kebabs to delectable chocolate chip cookies, our stationary appetizer menus are delicious, hearty, and convenient.
Take Your Event Up a Notch with a Themed Winter Solstice Buffet
If you are looking to hone in on a holiday party theme, our Winter Solstice Buffet is an excellent choice for your gathering. Impress your guests with our delicious passed hors d’oeuvres such as herb-roasted pork tenderloin crostini, carbonara arancini, and sweet potato & phyllo. Once you’ve enjoyed these hors d’oeuvres, dive into a winter greens salad, a butternut squash soup, a braised short rib panini, and a heavenly baked potato bar. Finish the night off with mouthwatering snickerdoodle cookies and a hot chocolate and coffee station complete with marshmallows, whipped cream, peppermint stick stirrers, and more!
