Speedboats and yachts for 20 people
A speedboat for 20 people in Rio means a boat of 50 feet or more: that is the size that seats this group, and the point where the market starts calling it a yacht. At Jet Life, regular speedboats take up to 10 people, and the largest yacht takes 20. Twenty people is also where many groups realise a private boat costs less than a restaurant, and where company events start, with a formal invoice and contract. If your headcount may grow before the date, book for the larger number: switching boats later is not always possible.
Available boats
Yacht
52 ft Yacht
A 52 ft yacht with the full package: grill, Bluetooth sound, coolers, bathroom, sun deck, sunshade and a premium comfort finish. Plenty of room for the group to move around, sunbathe on deck and take cover under the sunshade, with no one squeezed in. Departs from Marina da Glória with crew aboard, on the Urca Tour route, with views of Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer.
Schooner
50-person Schooner
A schooner for large groups, with a spacious layout, grill, Bluetooth sound, coolers, bathroom, sun deck and sunshade. Built for groups that need real room to move, not just a seat: parties, get-togethers and company events. Departs from Marina da Glória with crew aboard, on the Urca Tour route, with views of Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer.
Catamaran
70 ft Catamaran
A 70 ft catamaran for large groups. Two hulls give more stability than a speedboat of the same size, which helps anyone prone to seasickness or a group with children and older guests. Spacious layout, grill, Bluetooth sound, coolers, bathroom, sun deck and sunshade. Ideal for a large corporate event or a company-wide celebration, departing from Marina da Glória on the Urca Tour route.
Yacht or schooner for 20 people
For the 5-hour trip, the 20-person yacht costs R$ 9.500, R$ 475 per person with 20 aboard. The schooner costs R$ 7.375 more (R$ 844 per person), but it is licensed for 50: the same 20 get open deck to walk around and dance. A group that will spend the trip seated and chatting is fine on the yacht. If the idea is a party, the schooner is worth the difference.
Frequently asked questions
Do 20 people fit comfortably on a yacht?
They fit, with no room to spare. The 20-person yacht seats all 20, but to leave room to move around the ideal on it is up to 15 people, the same rule used on the page of each boat. With 20 aboard, it comes to R$ 475 per person.
What if the group is larger than 20 people?
Above 20 people, the capacity of the largest yacht in the fleet, the choice is between the schooner and the catamaran, which take up to 50, and the schooner starts at R$ 16.875. The page on boats for 30 to 50 people compares the two.
