Experience elegance at sea with the latest offering from The Catered Affair: private yacht rentals with elegant catered dinners, brunches, after parties, weddings and receptions. Join us on The Valiant, a 97-foot yacht in Boston Harbor. This elegant, 1920s style vessel offers a unique experience for up to 100 people, including overnight accommodations for up to eight guests. A traditional salon area boasts a full bar, leading to a wicker-furnished fantail. A large canopy deck is the perfect covered outdoor space for a reception, dinner or wedding ceremony. An event on The Valiant is the perfect way to kick off a wedding weekend, hold a rehearsal dinner or after party or bid farewell with a morning-after brunch that gives guests a spectacular view of the Boston skyline.
