NEED A CAPTAIN?

I have a list of qualified captains and guides. Captains range from $50-60 per hour. The law does not require you to use a certified captain. Feel free to request help for a recommendation, I’m here to help. 

HIGH DEMAND PERIOD AND HOLIDAYS

We do our best to deliver at your requested start time. However, during periods of high demand such as weekends and holidays, we may need to move your start an forward or backward. Additionally, prices are subject to change based on demand and wont exceed a 25% surcharge. The entire month of March is considered a holiday with spring break. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding!  

WEATHER POLICY

Due to Florida’s unpredictable weather, we are offering a rescheduling program if needed. You will be able to reschedule and receive a credit for up to one year after your reservation date. Additionally, scattered showers are typical for Florida boaters in summer; it’s the lightning and wind that we don’t want ; )

We hope for good weather and happy boating!
