VOL NAVY INFO, RULES, TERMS & CONDITIONS, AND FAQ
-Don’t be rude to anyone. We all are spirited about our teams, but this is a fun and festive sailgate atmosphere for fans of both teams, including on our vessel. We often have supporters from both teams onboard.
-Be respectful to boat owners’ property. Where the boat is located changes each week and depends on the number of boats in place before we arrive. Vol Navy boat placement is on a first come, first serve basis. If we are not directly against the dock, many boat owners will allow us to walk across their back swim decks or even cockpits to access our boat. Be very respectful of their boat and property.
-No entry into the Captain’s Quarters. This is our home and private bedroom and bathroom.
-Don’t take anything that doesn’t belong to you. Other guests may be on the boat on the same experience. Do not take their (or our) food, drinks, or property.
-Keep alcohol consumption to a reasonable amount. If you or any guest becomes an issue, you will be asked to leave.
-No drug use of any kind is allowed. There is a zero tolerance on this and you will be asked to leave without a refund if you bring any drugs onboard.
-Don’t be loud. Celebrate, enjoy, have fun, but not in an obnoxious kind of way.
-I prefer no glass (bottles, plates, cups, etc…).

Q: What time are we allowed to start our Vol Navy sailgating experience?

Q: Can we leave things on the boat during the game?
A: Absolutely! When you leave for the game, we will hold onto all your supplies and items. After the game, come by and pickup everything you left.

Q: What if we are not attending the game?
A: If you or someone in your party is not attending the game, ask about staying on the boat for the game. Many times, you will be able to watch the game on tv on the boat. Besides, Neyland Stadium, the next best place to watch the game is on our boat outside the stadium! Every time we score, all the boat owners blow their horns and fireworks go off at the stadium.

Q: Can we continue tailgating after the game?
A: This would depend on the start time. For noon games, come by afterwards and continue your tailgating experience. For 3:30 and 4 p.m. games, many guests come by and hangout for a while afterwards. If it is 7:30 p.m. game, we enter a quieter time period after the game.

Q: Can I bring food and drinks? Is any food or drink provided?
A: You can bring all the food and drinks you want. Many guests pickup catering meals from Calhoun’s, Buddy’s, or other restaurants. We always offer snacks, but not a meal or drinks unless stated on a specific day. With all of that said, we oftentimes have drinks left from the previous week that is up for grabs.

Q: Can I pay you to get catering for us?
A: Yes you can! If you tell me what you want, I will get a quote from a catering company for you and have it delivered.

Q: Can I bring food and drinks early ?
A: Yes! Come by on Thursday or Friday to load all of your supplies onboard. I will communicate with you where we are located on the day you would like to arrive. We will keep your drinks cold!

Q: Do you have coolers?
A: Absolutely! We typically keep about four standard coolers onboard during Vol Navy experiences, including a Yeti 65.

A: We have a restroom below deck with running water and a toilet. That is the beauty of having a 40-foot vessel!

Q: Where can I park?
A: Contact me before game day and ask about the best locations to park for that particular game. Sometimes I can drive a golf cart to you to pick you up. This would depend on where you park and what time you arrive.

Q: How will we find your boat and get onboard?
A: During the week of the game, I will communicate with you on where we are located for that week. The docks are a first come, first serve and we are typically in a new location each week.

If you or someone in your party cannot easily walk across boats, I have a dinghy that I can drive from the dock to the swim platform on our boat.

Q: Can we spend the night?
A: Overnight is NOT included in this Vol Navy experience. Any overnight stays would be on a case-by-case basis. This is our home, so we would need to be very comfortable with you.

Q: How many people can I book an experience for?

Q: Can I book a single party of more than eight people?
A: Having a party of more than eight would be on a case by case basis, but we often allow it for large parties. Contact us and let us know how many you would like to bring.

Q: Can I book every spot and have a private experience?
A: Absolutely! You can book all eight guest spots and have the experience with as few of people as you want!

Q: What if a friend comes by for five minutes, do they have to pay?
