The Black Raven is a singular venue: an authentic pirate-ship layout with multiple decks, rigging, a theatrical crew and room for large private events. Operators position the ship as a blank canvas for weddings, corporate outings, birthdays and themed parties—complete with show content, costuming, treasure hunts and sea-shanty entertainment when desired. Its scale and flexible programming make it a memorable alternative to shore-based venues.

Charters begin at two hours with extensive customization available—catering, drink packages and show elements are coordinated with the ticket office. Bookings require deposits and policies around head counts, final payments and cancellations; for groups, plan well ahead and confirm catering and staffing details no later than the timelines required by the operator.

This private sunset dinner cruise is built around an onboard chef and a curated four-course menu served as the yacht glides along the bayfront. The experience pairs elevated dining with the kind of waterfront perspective you can only get from the water—glimpses of St. Augustine’s skyline, the Bridge of Lions and frequent marine life sightings. The operator notes complimentary wine selections and recommends smart-casual attire and a light jacket for cooler breezes.

It can be booked as a shared dining event or reserved privately for more intimate gatherings. Practical notes from the provider cover arrival and check-in—arrive 15–20 minutes early—and parking at the marina is described as complimentary. Operators also suggest comfortable, non-marking footwear for guest safety aboard the vessel.

Pricing notes supplied by the operator list a base rate for small groups with per-person additions beyond the initial party; the vessel accommodates up to 10 guests and offers convenient marina parking and a brief pre-departure check-in protocol.

The booking notes emphasize safety and comfort—shoe guidance for non-marking soles, restrictions on pets and spray-tanning products, and the requirement that alcohol purchases be arranged through the office before departure. For families and groups seeking a relaxed, social sail with food service and attentive crew support, this is a turnkey daytime option.

The 34' Yellowfin is a versatile center-console charter built for both sightseeing and serious fishing. Operators list a menu of durations—half-day, three-quarter and full-day options—with corresponding pricing tiers. Fishing targets vary by trip type: nearshore trips pursue cobia, kingfish, flounder and redfish; offshore runs target grouper, snapper and amberjack. The vessel comes fully equipped with gear, licenses, coolers and a captain, leaving guests to focus on the action.

For groups that want a mix—sandbar stops for swimming and shelling, combined with fishing—the Yellowfin can be scheduled from short cruises to extended offshore days. Operators advise bringing sun protection, food and beverages; check the provider’s policies for cancellation and trip protection prior to booking.

The ASA 102 Basic Keelboat Sailing course is a focused, two-day curriculum for beginners and those seeking a refresher. It runs 9am to 5pm on consecutive days and covers helm commands, sail trim, points of sail, basic navigation rules and seamanship in light to moderate winds. Study materials are provided and the course certifies students to skipper a sloop-rigged keelboat in appropriate conditions.

This is an excellent option if you want to deepen your confidence before chartering privately. Classes require a minimum enrollment to run and are paced for practical learning—expect hands-on drills, real-world scenarios and instructor-led safety briefings to prepare you for day-sailing responsibilities.
