Ashes Scattering
3 boats to choose from:
Madevu SAMadevu RoyaleJamJar
We offer 3 boat options to either suit the need, the amount of guests or simply the budget. This is a very difficult time for some so we try make the occasion as comfortable as we can.
Madevu SA is ideal for larger families looking for a comfortable boat cruise, and can take up to 45 guests, we don’t recommend such a big group however. Please note this option may be limited to certain times due to the tides and also the days, and the sea conditions.
Madevu Royale which is also a great option for the medium size groups can take up to 35 Guests. This option is not limited to any tidal conditions and offers a great comfortable seating on the inside saloon area. If you worried for the elderly guests this boat will be just the option for you.
JamJar is the smaller boat option that can carry up to 11 guests. It’s very versatile and can assist at any time. This is a popular option for a small group, ideal for such occasions.
The minimum time we hire these boats out for an ashes scattering is 90 minutes. Based on years of experience we will assist the client to get out to the right area and leave enough time to have a moment whilst out at sea during this difficult time.
These trips are based on the sea conditions on the day as these trips head out to sea. We do recommend having a backup day reserved should the weather not turn out good.
