Captain Kevin's Blurb on Weather

U.S. Coast Guard inspected, each vessel provides a safe stable ride with a U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain onboard. With shade canopies and side curtains, you’re assured of comfort – rain or shine. Due to the rapid changes in weather here in Florida, forecasts are not always reliable, we very seldom have rain that will last all day, therefore cruise cancellations are not based solely on weather forecasts. The captain will usually not cancel a cruise until very close to the time of the cruise, or may choose to delay departure. Thunderstorms, heavy or steady rain, extreme cold, and/or winds in excess of 25 mph may cause a cruise to be canceled. Please feel free to call us if you have any concerns. Onboard restrooms, blankets and cold water are available.
