Hi! Thanks for stopping by! I'm Karen and the handsome guy to my right is Captain Scott. We are the owners, operators, designers and builders of the TiKi Time, the first TiKi Hut Boat on the Northshore.
We're glad you're here!
Come see Salem Harbor with us. Your experience with us will last approximately 90 minutes from when we greet you at the Wharf until we arrive back to the dock after our cruise. There will be a brief Coast Guard required safety briefing as well as going over some Covid-19 safety and social distancing guidelines before we get underway. Also, please try to have all passenger information available and entered into our system upon booking. Booking with all passengers listed acknowledges receipt of our policies and liability waiver ahead of time. If passengers not listed show up on your scheduled cruise time they will have to sign the waiver in person, delaying our departure.
