Frequently asked questions
Boat-specific facts (specs, allowed use, fishing) live on each boat's page.
Cancel more than 24 hours before departure for a full refund. We watch the marine forecast for every charter: if conditions are unsafe, we cancel on your behalf and you choose a full refund or a new date.
Before your trip we place a temporary $600 authorization hold on your card, separate from your rental payment. Your bank reserves those funds while it's active; any applicable charges are collected from it after your trip and the rest is released.
Fuel isn't charged at checkout. We refuel the boat after your trip and charge the exact amount to your card on file, with a copy of the receipt.
Yes — $85 per 30 min if you return late, charged after your trip if it applies, not at checkout.
If you rent without a captain, a Florida (FWC) boating course is required. You can add a captain as an add-on.
Pets are welcome with the pet add-on (up to 2). Child life jackets are provided if requested with at least 2 hours' notice, so we can bring the right sizes.
A private tubing session on the Intracoastal, just for your group: our captain drives the boat and you ride. Fuel, the tube, the tow rope and life jackets are included, it lasts 1 hour, takes up to 6 riders and costs $325. The last start is at 6:00 PM. Book it from the booking page like any charter.
The Private Tubing Charter is a guided session: we bring the boat, the captain and the tube. The Tube add-on puts a towable tube aboard your own charter, for your group to use during your day.
No need — every boat has built-in coolers. Please leave external coolers at home: they end up on the cushions and damage them.
