🌴 BLUE RUNNER — YOUR AMI BOAT DAY STARTS HERE Rated 5.0 stars across 248 Google reviews This isn't just about renting a boat. It's about what you're going to do with it. Pack the cooler, grab your family and friends, turn on the music and spend the day exploring the beautiful waters around Anna Maria Island aboard Blue Runner, our 22' Bennington pontoon. Cruise the island. Find a sandbar. Jump in the water. Stretch out on the floating mat. Stop for lunch at a waterfront restaurant. Keep an eye out for dolphins along the way. Or find your own quiet spot, drop anchor and do absolutely nothing for a while. ☀️🌊 There’s no itinerary. It’s your boat day. 🎉 AND THE FUN STUFF? IT'S INCLUDED. Nobody wants to book a boat and then discover that everything fun costs extra. Your rental includes: 🏝️ Huge 10' × 10' floating mat 🛟 Inflatable lounge chairs 💨 Pumps for the inflatables 🧊 Cooler 📍 Local recommendations for sandbars, restaurants & places to explore No extra charge for the add-ons. Just bring your crew and get ready for the water. 🛥️ WHY BLUE RUNNER? Blue Runner is a 22' Bennington powered by a 115HP Yamaha, giving you the comfort and space you want from a pontoon with plenty of power for a relaxing day of cruising. There's room for everyone to spread out, comfortable seating when you want to kick back, and a swim ladder when it's time to cool off. It's a great choice for: 👨👩👧👦 Family vacation days 🏝️ Sandbar adventures 🐬 Sightseeing & dolphin spotting 🎂 Birthdays & celebrations 🥂 Days out with friends 😎 Or doing absolutely nothing somewhere beautiful ⭐ FIRST TIME BOATING AROUND AMI? YOU'RE GOOD. You don't need to know all the best spots before you arrive. I'll walk you through the boat before you leave, answer your questions, and help you get comfortable. I can also recommend sandbars, waterfront restaurants, sightseeing areas and places worth exploring so you can spend less time figuring out where to go and more time enjoying your day. And if you have a question while you're out, I'm only a message away. 🌊 YOUR VACATION WILL GO FAST. MAKE ONE DAY UNFORGETTABLE. There are plenty of ways to see Anna Maria Island. But there's something different about seeing it from the water. Your favorite part of the trip might be spotting a dolphin. It might be everybody piled onto the floating mat at the sandbar. It might be lunch on the water. Or it might just be cruising back at the end of the afternoon while everyone talks about how much fun they had. That's the kind of boat day Blue Runner was made for. 🌴 Book your day, bring your favorite people, and go make some memories on the water. ☀️🛥️🌊

This was a great experience, and the boat was even larger and better stocked with free add-ons than we expected. We had plenty of space for 12 adults and had a thorough walk through of the vessel before departure. Appreciate the fast communication and accessibility! Thanks for a great time!

It was a great experience. Jeffrey was very easy to work with and responded very quickly to my questions. The boat was clean and easy to use. We followed the channel towards Sarasota and found tons of conch, saw lots of dolphins and spent some good beach time the Green island. We had 8 children with us and the boat had plenty of room.

Our experience with Jeff was absolutely amazing. He is very responsive, able to work with our group/requests, and so helpful on the day of! His employee was also great and super helpful the day of with getting us set up on the boat. I chose Jeff's boat because of just how kind he was over messages, but also the added activities to the boat. You can tell that Jeff truly cares about your experience on the water. When we are in Florida, will definitely rent from him again. I have rented boats several times, and my experience with Jeff was by far the best! Thank you again Jeff!

Being on the water is where I feel most alive — the freedom, excitement, and tranquility make every moment unforgettable. I love boat and jet ski rentals because they allow others to experience that same thrill, whether it's an adrenaline rush or a peaceful cruise. From dolphin encounters to breathtaking sunsets to a perfect sandbar day, there's nothing like seeing Anna Maria Island from the water. I love helping guests explore it all, unwind, and create unforgettable moments with their favorite people. 🌊
