We had an amazing evening cruise with Brendan. Boat was spectacular and he planned the evening exactly as we asked. And his company was even better. We had amazing conversation and can’t wait to come back and book it again! Listing is very accurate and highly recommend!

Explore Fort Lauderdale on 47ft Azimut Atlantis !!!
The whole team was incredible from booking with Frank who was super responsive and helpful (and saved the day with a boat for my girls when our original boat cancelled the morning of our trip). Capt Lee and Mate Lucia were the best! Thanks for coming through and showing us a great time <3

55ft All Inclusive Yacht Charter *1 HOUR FREE or $100 off - 12 guests
We had an absolute blast celebrating a bachelorette and birthday party aboard this beautiful yacht with Captain Brendan. The boat is perfect. Plenty of space for our party, in the back and front of the boat. The Captain has excellent communication and tailored our itinerary perfectly to what the group wanted. He had coolers with ice, waters, and towels ready to go. The music set up was seamless. He also had AC and a fridge and bathroom downstairs, everything very clean. It was an A+ experience and I would definitely use them again.

Sun, Fun, and Relaxation: 33' Sea Ray Intercoastal Charter
Very nice yacht!! I especially loved the white leather seating. The bed was very comfy & lounge area was perfect for entertaining inside the yacht. Nick was the absolute best. Water, ice, & eating utensils were provided. The surround system was top tier. We had an unforgettable yacht charter & will definitely book again.
