Captain’s Cruise FAQs

Do your driver's have a special license?

They sure do! All of our captains have their Coast Guard certified Master Captain Certification which requires at least 80 hours of classwork, a national exam nd over 360 hour of boating experience. What kind of boat will we be on?

We have a top of the line luxury 23’ Manitou Pontoon with a swim platform. The boat pictured throughout our site is the boat you will be on.

Do I pay for gas in addition to the rental? Are there hidden fees?

Nope! The fee includes fuel and no additional fees. Tips are appreciated for our drivers and hosts but not required.

I have one more person that your listed passengers, is that ok?

Unfortunately, no. The passenger limit is set by the recommendations from the boat manufacturer and US Coast Guard.

Do I need to wear a life jacket?

Children 10 and under are required to wear life jackets at all times the boat is moving per State law. The boat will have enough adult life jackets for capacity, but if you have smaller children that will need life jackets please let us know ahead of time so we can have them available. You are welcome to bring your own life jackets as well.

What is the cancellation poilicy?

Weather-related (lightning, high winds) cancellations will be considered for a full refund or credit, but not until the day of the charter as forecasts change.

Any cancellations within 48 hours of reservation will incur a $150 fee.

Should we tip the driver and/or host?

100% of tips go directly to the driver/host. While not required, they are appreciated.

Do you provide food/beverages?

No, but you are welcome to bring the on the boat! Remember that a cooler can weigh about as much as a passenger so plan accordingly.

Are pets allowed?

As much as we love your furry family members, they are not allowed on the boat. No exceptions.
