The charters

Five ways to spend a day on the water.

01

Private dolphin & wildlife cruises

A private charter built around finding dolphins and manatees close to the boat.

02

Sunset cruises

Timed to put you on the water right as the sky turns orange and pink over the Gulf.

03

Shark tooth & fossil hunting

Venice's beaches are known for fossil shark teeth. We take you to find them, no experience required.

04

Shelling & sightseeing cruises

A slower trip along the barrier islands for shells, birds, and open water.

05

Celebration of life / burial at sea

A respectful private trip to open water for families scattering ashes or marking a life.

Golden hour, on the water.

Meet the captains

Two names you'll actually remember.

Captain Eric and Captain Jenn have run boats on this stretch of the Gulf for more than thirty years between them. They're both USCG licensed masters, they know where the dolphins actually are, and they bring the blankets, the cooler, and the ice so you don't have to think about any of it.

“Captain Eric and Jen were great guides; very knowledgeable, friendly and great with the kids.”

About this preview

I built this for Great Day Boat Tours. Here's how it becomes real.

This preview is temporary. It comes down two weeks after I first send it your way — the follow-up email has the exact date. If you want it finished, I finish it: the full site built out, the AI-visibility layer that gets Great Day Boat Tours into AI search answers, and 90 days of tweaks after launch.

Websites start at $1,497. Most land between $1,497 and $3,500 depending on size, and I confirm the exact number with you before any money moves.

If anything I ship is broken or incomplete, I fix it at no charge. No contracts; everything after launch is month to month.

Founding-client rate for this month's projects. Ask me when you reply.
