Everything Else . . .

EVERYTHING ELSE YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW BEFORE YOUR AQUATIC ADVENTURE:

Pick-Up and Drop Off Locations:

I do not work out of a marina or commercial place of business; therefore, pick up locations may vary, depending on where you are staying in the Naples/ Marco Island area. Obviously, I want to make it as convenient as possible for you and your party, so will do my best when deciding where we meet, dock, load, and eventually return to dock and unload. My boat is currently kept on Marco Island, but depending on the time of your tour and duration, there a few places I prefer around South and East Naples and around Marco Island to meet:

If you are staying in a residence on a waterway or canal with Gulf access on Marco Island, Goodland or Isles of Capri, I will pick you up at your residence for an additional $100 or we can discuss pick up locations beforehand (please call 239-398-4907) if you don’t want to pay extra for the added convenience.

If you are not staying in a residence on a waterway or canal with Gulf access on Marco Island, Goodland or Isles of Capri, please call 239-398-4907 the day or night before so we can figure out where would be best for you and your party to meet for your trip.


IMPORTANT:

YOUR TRIP BEGINS AND ENDS AT YOUR SCHEDULED BOOKING TIME,

SO PLEASE BE PROMPT FOR PICK UP

(AS I AM ALWAYS EARLY OR ON TIME)

To secure your booking, we require a $100 Deposit* (or you may choose to pay in full)**

*$100 Deposit is non-refundable once trip is booked unless inclement weather; however, you can reschedule (depending on availability) if other outside circumstances prevent you from being able to make your scheduled booking.

**If you choose to pay in full and cancel your charter less than 48 hours prior, as a courtesy to the captain and the company for the short-notice inconvenience, you are required to pay for your booking for the full amount.

!!! GRATUITY IS NOT INCLUDED BUT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED !!!


The Boat:

My boat “The Philly Special” is a 2012 19.5′ Hurricane Fun Deck powered by a 115 horsepower Yamaha engine. It has an adjustable Bimini top for shade, compartments for storage, and easily accommodates up to 6 people comfortably (10 Person Capacity) with extra space for any and all of your necessary boating provisions you wish to bring.

The boat has 10 Adult (+90 lbs.) Life Jackets already on board, and I supply various life jackets for children under 90 lbs. (0-30 lbs, 30-50 lbs, and 50-90 lbs. If children are under 6 years old, they must wear lifejackets at all times while on the vessel when it is underway; if they are over 6 years old yet under 90 lbs., they are not required to wear them, just required have them on the boat. The boat does not, unfortunately, have a head (aka a bathroom), so please be sure do any necessary “business” before you board. There are beaches, bushes, and ladders on the boat front and back if nature should call unexpectedly; just be a boater while aboard! Moreover, she (the boat) is always clean, well-maintained, and has plenty of “get up and go.” She is an immaculately beautiful boat, which will surely make your aquatic adventure on our scenic waterways and mangrove islands with The Professor a fun-filled and memorable one!

(FRIENDLY & GOOD) DOGS WELCOMED!!!


Popular Itineraries and Destinations:

There are numerous things to do and multiple places to visit while on your excursion, depending on the duration of your booked tour, of course. Shorter tours (2 Sunset Cruises and 3-4 Hour Standard AM/PM Tours) obviously limit (to some degree) what can be done while longer tours (6-8 Hour Standard Tours) offer you a lot more options on your expedition.
