There’s a lot to keep in mind when throwing a bucks night party, so it’s good to be organised when going about it. Use our list below to make sure you have everything in order before you book your bucks cruise in Sydney.

• Catering - Are you happy with food and drinks provided by the venue or would you rather take care of it yourself? Check what the vessels offer and what their policies are. Make sure you know if you’re allowed to bring your own (BYO) alcohol or if they can provide it for you. After all, beverages are an integral part of a bucks night!
• Policies – Most boats have an alcohol licence, but be aware of the allowable time limits for drinking, which can vary between 3:00 am and 5:00 am. Other things to check are loud music rules and the minimum and maximum duration of the cruise.

• Onboard entertainment – What are you going to do when you’re on the boat? Music, movies, watching funny videos from the past or everything altogether? Some ships offer equipment for music and videos, but you will probably want to arrange some things yourself.
