We had an absolute blast on Monday, November 17th with Michael and Ryan! We weren’t sure what to expect for a Monday at 1:00 pm, but even with a small group of eight (five from our party), the party vibes were there from the start. Michael and Ryan played the perfect music, kept the energy up, and were incredibly friendly and engaging the entire time. This experience is BYOB, but they offered to stop at one of the shops in the marina if everyone agreed, so it was great to get a snack and more alcohol if needed. The marina had a bar, so we bought some Jell-O shots to bring back onto the boat :) The boat itself was well-equipped with cold water, a bathroom, floaties, and even a football and frisbee for when we were out in the water. We highly, highly recommend this boating company and will definitely be back! :)
Absolutely had a ball!!! My friend and I went on the sunset cruise and it was sooooo much fun! The weather was absolutely beautiful. The DJ was playing some awesome much and the scenery was to die for. I will DEFINITELY recommend for you to take this cruise. The crew was friendly and before we got on the boat they hosed and wiped down everything before we were able to get on. I liked and appreciated that a lot! ENJOYED!!
We had Ross as our captain! We were celebrating my friend’s bachelorette trip! He was awesome and super funny! It was a great time and everyone had the best time! Will definitely be recommending him in the future!!
WOW. I don’t even know where to begin. I booked this party boat for my sisters bachelorette party and it was hands down the most fun day of all our lives. YOU MUST CHOOSE HUNTER AS YOUR CAPTAIN!! This boat ride would have not been the same without him. His sense of humour, knowledge of our safety and the area, and of course his dance moves made this entire day 10000x better. We had an absolute blast and so did he!! Thank you Hunter for making our party experience the best it could’ve been, for being super professional and respectful while still being able to party with us. We made memories that will last forever. He gave us an amazing tour of all the mansions and yachts, and stopped to swim for a bit. We drove around and stopped at a bar on the water to grab some drinks. He got shrimp for us to feed fish and that was super fun as well! You would think this review is paid but I promise it’s not. Whatever you are paying this man, he needs more. WE LOVE HUNTER!!! If I’m ever back in town with the girls, we are 10000% coming back here. THANK YOU ❤️
John and splash were amazing boat hosts!! We had such an amazing time with the kiddos! Will definitely book with them next time I’m in Fort Lauderdale!

Our boat ride with Staying Afloat was great! It was my friends Bachelorette party and there were 8 of us! Tyler was a great Captain, keeping the ride fun but staying professional. We had lots of time at the sandbar and I think we all would have loved to stay longer! Thanks for a great time!
Jennifer was a fantastic Captain. I’m very happy we chose Jennifer as our captain. Awesome experience, lots of interesting pieces of information about Fort Lauderdale. A must do for an intimate experience with up to 12 of your closest friends… we had a blast

Captain Ross was amazing!! He went above and beyond and we had a blast!! My one and only complaint is the boat.. Captain Ross deserves an upgrade, he was the best!! The boat, not so much, the seats were torn, and caving in!! The tour itself exceeded our expectations! The condition of the boat was disappointing!! Would definitely recommend!!

Ross and John were awesome!! The sunset boat ride was absolutely beautiful and very romantic. They were also very entertaining and funny with their commentary. I really enjoyed seeing all the yachts and mansions on millionaires row.

Literally the BEST time! I had booked them thru the batch app and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. Captain Hunter was so funny and made the entire 4 hours so fun! (It also helped that I have a great group of friends but besides that fact lol) You can bring your own drinks and snacks which is awesome! You can even bring your own floats if you want too as well! (Not needed tho bc they proved floats for you!) Hunter even sliced his finger open and took one for the team because any other captain would have been like “let’s wrap it up I’m gushing blood we gotta go” but Hunter stuck it out like a champ and 3 out of the 7 guests on boards are registered nurses so it worked to his advantage!!!

My husband and I hosted our family reunion and thought it not be robbery by affording them a boat ride!!! I must say that we made the right choice. Erin & Kayla were the best captains we could have asked for. They both were very professional and very kind! Thanks so much as we will definitely be using you again!!!! Memories have been made with my family! Especially Fantasy Island 🤣🤣🤣
I can not speak more highly of Staying Afloat and Captain Hunter "Jennifer." My friends and I had an incredible time, and I was able to bring my dog on board, making the perfect birthday boat day for me! Captain Jennifer gained my dogs trust and enjoyed hanging with him on the boat while we were in the water. Captain Jennifer also made sure there was a floatie that my dog could lay on after getting tired from swimming, but still wanted to be a part of the action. If you are debating booking a trip, stop debating and book right now!! You will not regret it!
This boat ride was beyond great!!! Captain Greg knows the river and area so well that you can't help but to feel safe. We had a few that were a little scared of the water and he drove so safe that they all felt comfortable by the end of the ride. This was by far one of the best activities of our Tampa vacation. I would definitely to this again and recommend it to anyone.
Our bachelorette group loved Captain Ross, he made for such a goofy fun day!! Boat size was perfect for our private group of 12. Loved the mansion tour, sandbars, and pickle suit 😉 thanks Captain Ross! …
So we thought we might bail because the weather had been predicted to be cool. Then Captain Damon called me and he told me how this time of the year was one of the best times to go. The sweater weather was great and we had so much fun! Damon pointed out so many places along Tampa Bay. The Christmas lights and decorations were beautiful. The sunset was AMAZING! Damon was so fun and played really cool music. Thanks to Staying Afloat for a great time!
I Had My 35th Birthday Party On The Party Boat March 16th 2024, out of Tampa. It couldn’t have been more perfect! The Boat was great, Captain Kayla was absolutely amazing!! She is so sweet & made my day so special. On top of that, the Hillsborough River was dyed green for St Patties Day! I would highly recommend Staying Afloat Party Boat and highly recommended Captain Kayla! I will be booking again in the future. Thank You!
What a great sunset swim and cruise! By the end of the trip we wanted Captain Harrison to join our family! He was absolutely wonderful. Swimming, touring the mansions and yachts, picking up pizza and more! Highly recommended!!!!!
I’d give Staying Afloat Party Boat a 10/10 rating. I used this company to surprise my husband for his bday and had the best experience! Booking the reservation was super easy and the scheduler was helpful and friendly. Captain Greg gave us the best experience ever!!! I’m super thankful he was our Captain. Not only did he add to our party fun by dj’ing and being such good energy he was extremely accommodating, friendly, easy going and helpful! I’d use this company again just to have him as our Captain!
We had an absolutely incredible boat day in Tampa with Greg! From start to finish, everything was smooth, scenic, and a fun trip to do with a bachelor / bachelorette party! Our captain, Greg, was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend renting for a boat day!
Had the best boat day with my girls for my bachelorette! Captain Greg was amazing and we had a blast! He took us a day early due to bad weather on the scheduled day! This worked out great! 10/10 recommend.

Captain Ross was the absolute best! He was very knowledgeable on the area and so much fun. The four hour private pontoon was the highlight of our bachelorette trip! Highly recommend this company and would 100% do again.
