I reserved the princess Yacht Charter to celebrate my Birthday on…read moreMay 30th. The yacht was supposed to include the following features and amenities: * 4 staterooms, 3 bathrooms * Covered aft deck seating for 6. * Air-conditioned interior cabin with dining table seating. * Large sun pad on the bow for sunbathing. * Bathrooms equipped with Vacu-Flush toilets. * Standing shower in the bathroom. * Minibar, ice maker, 43" Smart TV. * High-speed Wi-Fi connection. * Bluetooth 1200w JL Audio stereo system. * 21.5kw generator providing full ship power for electronics and more. * Underwater Jets. * Inflatable cabana. * Galley. * Smart Cast TV. * Satellite. * Wi-Fi. * A/C and Heat. * Watermaker. * Icemaker. * Three full bathrooms with showers. * Toiletries. As listed on the website. Unfortunately, upon arrival at the yacht, there were numerous issues, including: * No electricity in any outlets on the boat as the generator was not functioning (we could not charge our phones or plug in anything. * The Tv would not even turn on for us to use the smart cast TV. * 2 out of 4 staterooms were taped shut with a handwritten note that says, "Crew Only" * No Wi-Fi at all (there was a Wi-Fi router, but it was not operational). * The Bluetooth 1200w JL Audio stereo system was NOT functioning (which meant there was NO MUSIC throughout the 70 ft yacht. We found a battery-operated Bluetooth speaker that was intentionally left there because he knew the full speaker system was not working but did not inform me). * Only 1 bathroom out of 3 promised was accessible due to the staterooms being locked. * NO ACCESS TO A SHOWER AT ALL AS IT WAS INTENTIONALLY LOCKED in the one bathroom that was unlocked * No Blow-Up cabana * There were NO WATER JETS AT ALL (We did not even see the water jets until we were leaving the boat and one of the crew members opened a locked stateroom door and we saw that the water jets were inside that locked stateroom.) I promptly contacted Shane to voice my concerns, as the situation was unfair to both me and my guest. We had anticipated enjoying all the amenities, yet not even a shower was accessible in the bathroom. Shane mentioned that the amenities were not guaranteed, but he never informed me prior to booking that these features would be unavailable for my reservation. When I confronted him about his website not indicating that these rooms and amenities were not guaranteed, he immediately went to amend the wording on the site concerning the locked rooms. He then texted me to say we couldn't use the water jets because we were consuming alcohol, despite the fact that not everyone on the boat was drinking. Additionally, we were not offered the chance to use them before we started drinking. I had to argue with him about my security deposit, which I eventually did receive back. I would never recommend booking with this man if you are a Black person. They seemed overly fearful of having us on the yacht, locking away everything, including the shower water jets and cabanas that were advertised on the site. There were no functioning electrical outlets, no Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, nothing. This is truly an ultimate SCAM charters.

Jonas and Greg were the most hospitable hosts that made us a beautiful charcuterie tray for 6 people. Fresh cheeses, meats and fruits. They offered wine but but we decided we didn't need to drink. The ride to the Skyway Bridge was beautiful and the water and weather were all working in our favor. It was a relaxing ride and we saw a couple of pods of Dolphins. We felt we could reach out and touch them. As we got to the skyway and turned towards shore, the captain asked if we would like to sail, which we did for a while. It was spectacular. The catamaran was beautiful, clean, comfy and cozy. We were briefed on where to find the lifejackets and there was a small raft on the aft.

The two gentlemen Aaron and Daryl were very nice and informative. It was very chilly so bring a jacket if going after summer . For me it was just ok a little boring boat went very slow and the scenery seemed to be all the same . The boat needs some sprucing up for sure . The other boats available at that marina were far nicer and seemed more comfortable. Would i recommend this boat tour? Yes but I do think there's better options .
