    Cancellation Policy

    Free cancellation more than 5 days before departure. Within 5 days, charter fees are non-refundable. If the captain cancels for unsafe weather, rescheduling is attempted first; if that is not possible, charter fees paid to the vessel owner are refunded.

    FAQs

    You may engage your own qualified captain, subject to vessel-owner approval and insurance requirements. An informational roster of independent, insurance-approved captains is also available for selection.

    For your Ocean Rode charter, the primary charterer assumes temporary possession and control of the vessel and independently selects and engages the captain.

    With a flawless reputation across hundreds of reviews, this Sarasota charter operation consistently delivers memorable experiences on the water. Guests rave about the diverse fleet that includes both power boats and sailboats, with vessels like the Exit Strategy and Memory Maker earning particular praise for their amenities and comfort. The captains and crew members stand out repeatedly, with names like Captain Bill, Captain Luke, Captain Jorge, and crew member Grace mentioned for their professionalism, local knowledge, and warm personalities. They handle everything from dolphin and manatee sightings to sunset cruises with genuine care. What makes this company special is their versatility. They've successfully handled intimate celebrations, larger family gatherings with kids, memorial services, and even an engagement, adapting seamlessly to each occasion. The boats come equipped with entertainment systems, comfortable lounging areas, and optional water toys like SeaBobs. Multiple reviewers mention returning for repeat charters, which speaks volumes about the quality and consistency of service you can expect.
