Why some boats set a minimum threshold
A minimum threshold is mainly justified on large barges, whose operation is not always suited to a very small group, for reasons of the cost of mobilising the boat and its crew.
Options for small groups
Yachts and certain moored boats are well suited to small gatherings, without imposing a restrictive threshold, whether for a marriage proposal, a business dinner or an intimate birthday.
How to adapt the format to a small group
Stating the exact number of guests from the first exchange allows the operator to point you directly towards suitable boats, rather than an offer designed for larger numbers.
