This Is What a Day on the Water Looks Like.
Sunshine. Open water. Island stops. Good food. A few toys. Maybe a dolphin if you're lucky.
Every charter is a little different—and that's the point.
Meet Captain John
The Captain Behind the“Yacht-Toon” Experience
Captain John has spent most of his life around boats, from building his first at age 12 to serving in the U.S. Coast Guard and earning his U.S. Coast Guard Captain's License.
Today, he brings that experience to Agua Blu with a very personal approach to private charters: attentive, relaxed and focused on making the day easy for his guests.
One guest called it a “yacht-toon”. Like a yacht experience on a pontoon.
John thought that described it perfectly.
Reviews
A 5.0-Star Experience on the Water
Guests Come for the Boat Ride. They Remember the Experience.
5.0-Star Rated“We had the most relaxing and fun pontoon ride today. The pontoon is Preston's and the captain was super funny, respectful, and so attentive. He grilled our meal, got our drinks and we floated all our worries away while watching the dolphins swim nearby. Highly highly recommend!!”
I couldn't recommend them enough. If you are looking to charter a pontoon boat, look no further. Not only was the captain very nice and attentive, but they had great food and plenty of water toys to play with. Always with a smile, never made us feel like we were a bother even when we asked for things constantly. Best experience ever for a pontoon charter and will definitely charter again.
