Which boat suits your charter?
Both take twelve. Both leave from Aker Brygge. The difference is in what kind of day you have in mind.

Both boats take twelve guests and leave from the same quay. The difference comes down to where people will end up sitting, and how long you are going out for.
Chancer, Princess 85
Twenty-five metres, the largest we have. A flybridge with bar and grill, a saloon with panoramic windows, four cabins and five bathrooms.
This is the boat when the day needs to make an impression. The flybridge is why: a deck of its own above the main one, with seating, sun beds and views all the way around. It is where the party ends up when the sun is out, and where the photographs get taken.
Choose this for the company day with clients on board, or the celebration that should be remembered.
The Butler, Princess 25M
Eighty feet, slightly smaller, and with a different character. A flybridge with bar and grill here too, plus an Opacmare crane rated to 500 kilos, meaning a proper tender or a jet ski if you want one.
She is quicker to handle in tight harbours, which matters on multi-day trips where you are tying up somewhere new each day.
Choose this for the longer run south, or when the group is a little smaller and you would rather have closeness than grandeur.
What actually separates them in practice
Honestly: less than the specifications suggest. Both are comfortable, both have proper indoor saloons, both come with a skipper who knows these waters.
The difference shows up in two places. On the flybridge, where Chancer simply has more room. And in harbour, where The Butler is easier to manoeuvre.
If you do not know
Choose "Open request" on the form. You get an answer on which boats are free for your date, with a price for each, and can compare them side by side on your own page.
That is actually the most common way people book, and the one we recommend for a first time. We have no interest in steering you towards the more expensive one; we have an interest in you being happy and asking again.
One thing that does not separate them
Both are limited to twelve guests. It is not size that sets the number, it is the regulations. A bigger boat gives more space per person, not more seats.
