Squad of 5? Set sail for ₹599 each.

The offer, in plain terms

This is a genuine private charter, not a shared tour boat with strangers bolted on. Your squad of 5 gets the whole sailboat, a skipper who handles the sailing so none of you need any experience, and two full hours on Mumbai harbour.

• ₹599 per person — a group of exactly 5, so ₹2,995 for the whole boat
• 2 hours of private sailing, skipper included
• Three slots to choose from: 8–10 AM (morning sail), 2–4 PM (afternoon breeze) or 4–6 PM (golden hour)
• Departs from the Gateway of India, Colaba — the same jetty every Saildeck sailboat uses
• Valid college ID required for all 5 guests at boarding

How to actually get the ₹599 rate

There's no hidden follower-count tier and no "apply and we'll review your profile" step. Three things, and the discount is yours:

• Show college ID. All 5 people in the group need a valid, current college ID at boarding — this is a student offer, and we check.
• Post one story. While you're on board or right after, put up one Instagram (or equivalent) story tagging Saildeck. Public account, private account, 200 followers or 20,000 — all of that is irrelevant. We're not asking you to be an influencer, just to share the afternoon.
• Leave a Google review. After the charter, one honest Google review from someone in the group. Tell people what the sail was actually like — good, middling or otherwise. We'd rather have five real reviews than one polished one.

Why we're doing this without a follower minimum

Most "collab" offers quietly filter for an audience size, which means the same handful of already-large accounts get every deal while everyone else pays full price for the same boat. That's backwards for a word-of-mouth business — a review from a genuine first-time rider does more for us than a polished story from someone who does five brand collabs a week.

So the bar here isn't reach, it's honesty: show up, sail, tell your own followers — however many there are — what you thought, and leave a review that reflects it. That's the whole deal.

What a 2-hour student sail actually looks like

You meet the crew at the jetty near the Gateway of India, around fifteen minutes before your slot, with your college IDs ready. A short motorboat transfer takes your group out to the sailboat at anchor, and from there it's genuinely wind-powered sailing — no engine running once you're underway, just the skipper trimming sail while your group takes in the harbour and the Mumbai skyline from the water.

No sailing experience is needed and nobody expects you to crew the boat — you're there to enjoy it, though the skipper is usually happy to let someone take the helm for a bit if conditions allow. If you've never been sailing before, our guide to learning to sail in India is a reasonable primer on what the experience is actually like, even if this particular afternoon is pure fun rather than a lesson.

Dress for wind rather than a photoshoot you have to protect — light clothing, a cap, sunglasses and flat non-slip shoes work best. Our general packing list for a yacht charter covers the rest, and most of it applies here too.

Booking

This is a limited college collab, not a standing fleet price, so slots are first-come. Message us on WhatsApp with your preferred date, the slot you want (8–10 AM, 2–4 PM or 4–6 PM) and confirmation that it's a group of 5 current students — we'll come back with availability and lock in your reporting time.
