Lilypad Lulls and Sunset Runs: A 12‑Passenger Pontoon on Lake Travis

Lilypad Lulls and Sunset Runs: A 12‑Passenger Pontoon on Lake Travis.
Float On’s 12‑passenger pontoons are built for group days on Lake Travis — equal parts swim platform, floating lounge and slow‑cruise taxi. Each booking comes with a friendly local captain, an empty YETI cooler for your beverages, gas, a large Lilypad float and a Bluetooth sound system, making the boat as much a social stage as a vessel.

Local captains who run the day
Every charter comes with a friendly local captain who handles navigation and boat operations so your group can focus on swimming, socializing and the sunset.
YETI cooler, Bluetooth sound and an 18‑ft Lilypad
Float On supplies an empty YETI cooler (BYOB), a Bluetooth sound system for your playlist and an 18‑foot Lilypad float large enough for the whole crew — essentials for a long, comfortable day anchored or drifting on the lake.
Swimming, restaurants and party cove
The pontoon is sized for the full‑group experience: anchor and swim, cruise to a shoreline restaurant, or tie up with other boats in party cove to trade stories as the light falls.
What the day feels like
What the day feels like
The rhythm is unhurried: a short launch into Lake Travis, an easy cruise to a favored swim spot or restaurant, then long stretches of sun and wake‑free conversation while the captain handles the lines. Whether your objective is a noon swim or a slow approach to sunset, the boat’s kit — cooler, Lilypad and sound system — turns the vessel into a daylong social platform.
