Boat party RSVP

The boat has a fixed number of seats, and the form closes itself once they're taken.

What's inside

Each yes counts the seats it needs, and the form closes once twelve are taken; a yes also says who's swimming, who gets seasick and gives a phone for the dock.

Filling the boat without overbooking

Charters have a fixed passenger limit. Set the form's limit to it, and replies stop once every seat is claimed, counted in people rather than replies.

Departure time is a hard stop. Put the pier, the boarding time and the leaving time in the intro, and text everyone the morning of the trip.

Swim and seasick answers shape the packing list: towels for the swimmers, ginger candy and a seat in the middle of the boat for anyone who feels the waves.

The phone numbers are for the dock. If someone is running late, you know whether to wait five minutes or cast off.

Boat party questions

How does the seat limit work?

Each yes says how many seats it needs, and that number counts toward the limit. A reply that says no counts nothing. Once the total reaches the limit, the form closes. One reply can claim at most four seats, so a single group can't take half the boat. Tell late askers in the intro to message you for a spot on the waitlist.

Can I change the number of seats?

Yes. Change the limit in the form's settings and the number in the intro to match your boat, whether it's 6 on a sailboat or 40 on a party boat. The charter's passenger limit usually counts guests only, not crew. Keep one or two seats off the limit for yourself and anyone you invite in person, since they won't fill in the form.

Should I ask about life jackets?

Ask your charter first, since most carry adult sizes for every passenger. If kids are coming, check that they have small sizes, and add a question for children's ages if they don't. Put it after the seats question so only guests who come see it. Send the answers to the charter two days before, so the right sizes are on board.
