Experiences
A yacht proposal in Miami, perfectly timed.
One question, one golden hour, and a crew that's rehearsed everything except your part.
The format
A yacht proposal works for one simple reason: the setting can't be improved and nobody can interrupt it. What separates a perfect proposal from a fumbled one is choreography — and that's ours to carry. A proposal charter with Global Yachts Network is a quiet production: the sunset timed, the bow cleared at the right moment, the photographer aboard disguised as crew, the champagne appearing thirty seconds after the yes. We've hosted enough of these to know where every detail goes and — just as important — how to keep a secret. From the first message to the moment itself, exactly one person aboard needs to know what's coming, and it won't be your partner.
The itinerary
The evening, choreographed
Miami Beach barrier island + Biscayne Bay, north at top.
5:30
Board, unhurried
Just a sunset cruise, as far as anyone knows. Drinks, ease, no signals.
6:00
The slow pass
Millionaire’s Row while the nerves settle. The photographer shoots "candids of the trip."
6:40
The crew's quiet signal
Light is fifteen minutes from perfect. The bow is suddenly, casually, yours.
6:50
The question
The yes. The photographs you didn't know were being taken.
7:10
Champagne & the lit skyline
The ring catching the city lights on the cruise home. Dinner after, if you've planned it.

Questions we get
Proposal · FAQ
How do you keep the proposal secret?
Everything is arranged in one planning conversation before the day; aboard, nothing looks different from an ordinary sunset charter until the moment itself. The crew's signal to you is invisible to everyone else.
Can a photographer be aboard without giving it away?
Yes — they board as part of the crew and shoot the whole evening as trip candids. The proposal photos simply emerge from them.
What does a proposal charter cost?
The same as a sunset charter on the vessel you choose — from about $2,500–$4,000 — plus photography, florals, and dining quoted to your plan.
What if the weather turns on the date?
We watch it all week and talk to you early. A proposal is the one charter we'll never run on a marginal evening — we'd rather move it than compromise it.
