Roomy 20‑ft Godfrey with a 10‑ft Bimini
The centerpiece is the 20‑foot Godfrey pontoon with a 10‑foot Bimini top — built for shade, stability and groups up to ten people, whether you’re casting lines or settling in for a day on the water.
Perfect for fishing or partying
The rental is promoted specifically for both fishing and social outings, giving groups flexibility to fish, swim, picnic or just cruise and socialize on the water.
Fuel included; captain optional
Rentals include fuel, and you can add a captain for an additional hourly rate paid after the rental; these details make planning simpler for groups new to boating.

A typical day aboard the Godfrey is unhurried: load coolers and gear, shelter under the Bimini while the sun climbs, anchor or drift for fishing or set up a social spot for friends — all on a boat sized for ten and available in 2–8 hour blocks.
