Outing Highlights

THE CREW

Local captains who run the day

Each charter includes a Float On captain, allowing your group to relax while a familiar local handles navigation, docking, and the best spots on Lake Travis.

ONBOARD KIT

Comforts that make a day on the water effortless

Boats come equipped with an empty YETI cooler for your drinks, a spacious Lilypad for lounging or swimming, and a Bluetooth sound system to set the mood for the group.

THE PROGRAM

Swim, dine, or anchor up in party cove

The pontoons are sized and outfitted for a mix of swimming, cruising to a restaurant, sunset watching, or tying up with other boats in party cove to socialize.

What the day feels like

The outing unfolds as a deliberate, social day on the water: the captain pilots the pontoon to swim stops and shoreline restaurants while the crew lounges on deck or drifts on the Lilypad; when the light softens, groups commonly pull alongside other boats in party cove or drift to watch the sunset.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this suits—practical notes on group size and suitability.

Large friend groupsIdeal for groups that fill much of the 13-passenger capacity and want a single, social platform for swimming, music, and dining.

FamiliesWell suited for multi-generation family outings that benefit from a captain and on-deck space for kids and adults alike, up to the 13-person limit.

Couples and sunset seekersCouples can join larger groups to enjoy sunset watching and relaxed cruising without the need to pilot the boat themselves, within the vessel’s 13-passenger limit.

Casual cruisersAnyone seeking an easy day on the lake—swimming, floating on a Lilypad, and listening to music—so long as the party fits within the 13-passenger capacity.
