Saw a post where somebody said they were bringing booze and bottled water on their charter, I am going on a 5 day charter on the SOA, is it acceptable to bring my own 24 pack of water aboard?
Thanks for any input guys.

I'm pretty surer the crew makes some money on beer and tackle. I agree they probably get most of their money from tips.
Wrong..... R/O water is actually full of sodium compared to most tap water...... it also depletes your body of trace minerals.... R/O water and softened water are not good to drink long term....Most boats use a reverse osmosis filter to make freshwater so the water is actually very good for drinking. Likely as good or better than bottled water. I have also never seen anyone told that they could not bring their own beverages. It might be more of an issue on the shorter half day type trips but I would doubt it to be an issue on a 5 day. As has already been mentioned the easiest thing to do is just ask the office and there won't be any guessing. I would ask if they filter their own water for drinking too. If so I would not bother hauling bottled water. Just bring a water bottle if you want.
Most boats do frown on passengers loading up the boats cooler with their beer or stuffing beverages in the ice machine.
Is this your first 5 day? all non-alchie drinks are free.......at least they used to be before people whined about wifi
and yes. the water on board is bottled and/or purified
I was on the SOA in Sept. last year and the beer,soda and water were a $1.00 each....
Very true, drink the boats water for 18 days and you'd look like the guy in your avatar.Wrong..... R/O water is actually full of sodium compared to most tap water...... it also depletes your body of trace minerals.... R/O water and softened water are not good to drink long term....
I bring water on 3 different boats. Never had a problem. But I tip the crew and they know that. I also bring Soda and juices with me. Also Soda Pop and a couple of boxes of treats for the crew..... sunflower seeds...jerky......socks....... candy... ect.
