The charter follows a simple loop—embark, run activity sets on the lake, then return to shore—allowing maximum time on the water.
Board at Lake Morey Resort
Guests meet at the resort to board the ski boat; reservations are verified by resort staff prior to departure.
Open-water activity sets
Under the direction of the certified captain, the boat runs short activity sets for water skiing, wakeboarding or tubing, with equipment provided for participants.
Return and disembark
At the end of the booked time—anywhere from 30 minutes up to two hours—the boat returns to the resort dock and riders disembark.
Charters require completed online waivers (sent in the confirmation email) before arrival; bookings are limited to resort guests and are subject to staff verification. Vermont law prohibits open containers of alcohol on the water, so alcoholic beverages are not permitted on the boat.
