Frequently Asked Questions


Treat your guests to a fabulous time on the River Lady. The upper deck offers the perfect atmosphere for sipping champagne or enjoying a memorable dinner. You'll find the scenery breathtaking. We often get questions regarding a variety of topics. Here on this page, we try to answer the questions that are most frequently asked. If we haven't answered your questions, feel free to contact us!

What if it rains?

No problem. River Lady seating is fully enclosed so she sails rain or shine.

Will I get seasick?

It's very unlikely because the River Lady sails in the calm waters of Barnegat Bay and Toms River. Additionally, the River Lady is large and stable; therefore, in most cases, you can hardly feel the ship moving.

Do you have tables for two?

No. River Lady features cabaret style seating and the majority of tables seat six to eight guests.

Do you have accomodations for someone using a wheelchair?
Yes, we have one bathroom which is wheelchair accessible, however, this question is best answered by speaking directly with the Captain prior to purchasing tickets to discuss your specific needs. With advance notice, every season we have many people using standard size wheel chairs aboard with minimal assistance needed by the Captain or crew. Please don't hesitate to call with questions.
