Birthday and bachelorette boat charters in St. Petersburg.
A private 40-foot Beneteau for the people you'd actually want on it. Up to six guests, a licensed captain at the helm, and a day on the water planned around what you're celebrating.
At a glance
One boat, one group, and nobody else aboard.
Why a private boat
A celebration that runs at your pace.
Charters are never shared or sold by the seat. The six guests aboard are the six people you bring, so the music, the stops and the timing are the group's call. There is no schedule to keep with strangers and no crowd at the rail for photos.
The captain runs the boat so nobody in your group has to. No boating experience is needed. Tell us the occasion in the booking form and your captain plans the route around it: a sandbar afternoon for a birthday crew, a slower cruise for an anniversary, or open Gulf water for a group that wants to see what the boat can do.
The cockpit lounge seats the whole group around one table.
The boat
Set up for a group of six.
Relentless is a 2019 Beneteau Gran Turismo 40. The cockpit U-lounge seats everyone under the hardtop around a teak table, and the glass roof opens when the group wants sun. There is a grill and a wet bar in the cockpit, a head with a separate shower below, and two cabins if anyone needs a quiet minute or a change of clothes.
The swim platform folds down at anchor and water toys come aboard with every charter. At the Shell Key sandbar the boat anchors in waist-deep water, so the group can wade to the beach and back as often as they like.
Choosing the day
Which charter fits which celebration.
Four hours is the classic birthday or bachelorette afternoon: the run out to the Shell Key sandbar, a long stop in clear shallow water, and back along the downtown waterfront.
Six hours adds a proper lunch at anchor and time to cruise the beaches without anyone checking the clock. Eight hours is the full Gulf day under the Skyway to Egmont Key, for a group that wants the whole day on the water.
A 4-hour charter is $1,692 and a 6-hour charter is $2,292. A full 8-hour day is $3,096 Monday to Thursday and $3,192 Friday to Sunday. Prices are for the whole boat, not per person.
What to bring
Everything the day needs.
Bring the people, the food and whatever you want to drink aboard, in a cooler. Fuel, the captain and water toys are included. Sunscreen and hats matter most on a sandbar in full sun, and towels, a change of clothes and a light layer for the run home make the day easier.
Questions
Before you book it.
How many people can come on a birthday or bachelorette charter?
Up to six guests plus the captain. The charter is always private, so the six aboard are the six people you invite and nobody else.
Can we bring our own drinks and food?
Yes. Bring a cooler with whatever the group wants to eat and drink aboard. If the day includes Shell Key, remember the preserve rule: drinks with alcohol stay on the boat, not on the sand.
Which charter length works best for a celebration?
Four hours covers a run to the Shell Key sandbar and a good stretch at anchor. Six hours adds a long lunch without watching the clock. Eight hours is the full Gulf day out to Egmont Key.
Is it priced per person?
No. The price is for the whole boat, up to six guests. Split six ways, a four-hour charter works out to $282 each.
Can we bring decorations or a cake?
Tell us the plan when you book and we'll let you know what works aboard. Choosing the occasion in the booking form lets your captain plan the route around it.
