#RENTALS:
The person driving the boat will be the one that fills out the paperwork. They must have a valid photo ID card with them at time of the rental. If born 1988 or later the driver must have a boaters license. The driver must remain sober, no driving under the influence.
For fishing licenses call 1-888-347-4356 or visit www.myfwc.com. We provide fishing poles for rental only, we do not provide bait or tackle. There is a West Marine on the way to the marina that supplies these items.
If you would like any rental equipment (snorkels, fishing rods, etc.) please pre-order it before you arrive to our marina.
Please respect the boat. Keep gear organized and try not to lose items (the renter is financially responsible for lost or damaged articles). If the boat is returned in a state where excessive cleaning is necessary, a cleaning fee may be charged.
The electronics (stereo and gps/depth finder) are a bonus to the rental. These are not amenities that the entire rental is to be based around. If one of these malfunction, it will not be a reason for cancellation or refund of the rental. It is recommended that you download the Google Maps satellite imagery or another navigational app onto your phone as a backup navigational tool. Electronics malfunction or improper use will not be used as an excuse for any damage caused to the vessel. The renter is financially responsible for any damage that results from direct operator error. The renter is expected to have prior boat operating experience and accept the risk of operating the vessel.
All customers are welcome to use the Harbour or hotel facilities (showers, pool, restaurant) before or after the rental.
If there are any questions or concerns before disembarking, please discuss them with the rental agent. We hope you have a great day on the water!
#CHARTERS:
Please contact us as you are arriving. The captain will load the boat 10 minutes prior to the reservation time.
All trips are based around the weather and ran accordingly. We use multiple snorkel spots when running trips, no specific spot is guaranteed. If you choose lobstering or spearfishing as one of your activities, prior snorkeling experience is mandatory. The captain is not required to get in the water and assist you with these activities (however most of the time they do), but they will provide instructions on the proper techniques. There is no guarantee that you will catch anything, due to the fact that these activities revolve around nature. Spearfishing requires visibility of atleast 10-15ft, if the visibility is poor another activity may be substituted for spearfishing. The customer participates in all activities at their own risk. Dolphin sightings are not guaranteed. Snorkeling visibility varies with weather conditions, clear water is not guaranteed. No alcohol consumption before water activities please.
All customers are welcome to use the Harbour or hotel facilities (showers, pool, restaurant) before or after their trip.
We provide coolers with ice and bottled water, all equipment, and licenses.
If you had a good time and feel the captain did a satisfactory job, it is customary to tip them a 15-20% gratuity at your discretion. An auto gratuity of 18% may be added onto the trip by the crew, unless not authorized by customer.
If there are any questions or concerns before disembarking, please discuss them with the captain.
We hope you enjoy your time on the beautiful Key West waters!
