Lake Travis Luxury: Avalon’s Double‑Decker Funship for Groups up to 11.

Upper‑deck views and room to socialize
The double‑decker layout places a commanding observation platform above the main cockpit — a place for sun‑watching, lake vistas, and group downtime that defines the experience aboard the Funship.
Waterslide that works for kids and adults
The built‑in slide is a focal point for stops and anchors the boat as a playful, swim‑centric platform suitable for family gatherings and parties.
Bluetooth sound and turnkey gear
The Funship includes a premium Bluetooth sound system with subwoofer and comes with the operator’s promised included equipment — making it a plug‑and‑play rental for celebrations and group outings.
