Most of our boats have a 13 guest max, not including the Captain and Crew. 

Boat rentals and yacht charters to Beer Can Island

Beer Can Island is a locally famous boating destination, smack dab in the middle of the bay. If you're renting a yacht from downtown Tampa or St. Petersburg, Beer Can Island is a perfect destination only requiring a 4 hour (half-day) rental. If you want to stay at the island longer, we also offer 6 hour and 8 hour trips. The water may not be crystal clear, but this is the most popular party spot for boats for a reason. Hundreds of boats and yachts gather here every weekend for shenanigans and debauchery.

Boat rentals and yacht charters to Egmont Key

Egmont Key is a popular boating destination with beautifully clear / turquoise water. Egmont Key is located south of St. Pete, so if your boat or yacht is departing from Tampa Bay, you'll need to book a minimum of a 6 hour charter, or save money with the discounted full-day yacht charter options. 

Boat rentals and yacht charters to Johns Pass Sandbar

Johns Pass is located a bit further south and is a great local meet up location for boaters. If you've chartered a boat or yacht from downtown Tampa, you'll want to be sure to book a 6 hour rental or 8 hour rental to ensure you have enough time to get there. Johns Pass is a really fun local sandbar where boaters party 7 days a week. Mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. 

Weather in Tampa Bay

Always keep in mind the weather when planning your yacht rental experience. Tampa Bay is an ideal location for a yacht charter, either while on vacation or “staycation” because of the wonderful weather patterns. With winters ranging in the 70°s and summers in the 90's, there's no wrong time to visit. While it may rain frequently in Tampa Bay, the storms are almost always scattered and very short in duration, often times only lasting a few minutes and then the sun is shining again. If you're traveling to Tampa Bay in the cooler months of the year, be sure to pack some layers to wear while on your boating trip, especially if you plan to go yachting in the evening. If you're traveling during the summer months, remember to stay hydrated and take some extra precautions when it comes to sun care.

When planning to rent a yacht in Tampa Bay, your Captain will keep an eye on the weather patterns. The Captain will warn you of any weather that could cause your yacht charter to be canceled, rescheduled, or departure time pushed back. Safety is always our top priority.

Drunk Clearwater captain fell off boat while 30 people were attending tour: Police

Captain accused of boating under the influence.

Clearwater Police say they arrested a boat captain on charges of boating under the influence after he fell off the vessel as 30 people were taking a tour.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - A 53-year-old boat captain was arrested and charged with boating under the influence on Friday afternoon, according to the Clearwater Police Department.

Witnesses told law enforcement that John Edward Beckwith, the captain of the Clearwater Fun Boat, was impaired to the point where he fell off the vessel just before 2 p.m. Police say when they spoke to employees on the boat they were told that Beckwith arrived at work stumbling and had food all over his face.

According to officers, the boat Beckwith was working on had 30 people attending a boat tour.

Authorities say Beckwith performed poorly on the field sobriety exercises and provided a breath sample of 0.118 and 0.115. The blood alcohol limit for boating is 0.08 in Florida.

How dozens of golf carts started vanishing around Pinellas County

• Jack Prator Times staff

The golf carts started vanishing in early January, one after another.

Among the first to go was a black cart with a deep-tinted windshield, alligator leather seat cushions and a polished wood steering wheel. It was furnished with a lift kit, which meant the driver and up to three passengers towered above other carts.

“It was custom,” said its owner, Jennifer Houston of Palm Harbor. “That makes it even harder.”

Then a cart disappeared from a boat marina. Another from a waterfront condo. Over the following weeks, golf carts went missing from places as disparate as a Clearwater mobile home park, a South Pasadena bowling alley and the Don CeSar resort in St. Pete Beach.

The carts were stolen under cover of night and in broad daylight. From parking lots of bustling businesses to backyards in quiet neighborhoods.

The pattern that was emerging suggested one thing: a serial golf cart thief.

In the end, authorities followed the investigative trail of nearly two dozen cart thefts across Pinellas County to one man.

And as the man would later tell detectives, his life took a dark turn after a devastating drug addiction left him alone and penniless.

It was only then that he stumbled into the illicit and lucrative world of stolen golf carts.

A rented truck and stolen trailer

After babysitting her grandkids in Sarasota and making the late-night drive home, Laura Stover walked past the garage and up the stairs to her waterfront condo in Isla Del Sol.

“When I got up in the morning, I went into the kitchen and looked out the window and the golf cart was gone,” the lifelong St. Petersburg resident said. “My husband didn’t believe it.”

It had been a retirement gift and her preferred method for hauling bait, rods and tackle to fish along local beaches. Stover had only owned the cart for two months before it disappeared.

Luckily, the golf cart — valued at about $12,500 — was insured. She’s already ordered a replacement: It’s bright red and easier to spot if carried off by thieves.

“I just felt like that ruined my Caribbean blue one,” she said.

As it was spirited away, Stover’s golf cart provided an important clue thanks to the Florida SunPass transponder attached to it.

On the morning that Stover reported the theft, Feb. 18, the cart pinged her with a SunPass alert. It had — just before 9:30 am — passed through a Skyway Bridge toll booth.

“That’s kind of what cracked the case,” she said.

Toll booth photos showed her cart strapped to a trailer towed by a rental truck. Using the unique ID number on the truck, detectives learned it had been rented from a nearby Home Depot on Jan. 4, just days before the first carts were reported stolen.

The trailer, detectives later learned, had been stolen in the middle of the afternoon off busy Bay Boulevard on the Treasure Island end of John’s Pass.

Once they learned the name of the man who had rented the truck, detectives found their suspect was already in jail. A warrant for his arrest had been served two days after Stover’s golf cart was reported stolen.

The wanted man had missed a court date in a case of another golf cart that was stolen in June.

He had been charged then with two counts of theft of a motor vehicle and two counts of burglary. A month later, he posted $22,000 bail and was released.

After he missed a court date and was on the lam, authorities finally caught up with him on Jan. 20. He was arrested in the rental truck at a Pinellas Park dentist office. Deputies found crack and a pipe inside the vehicle.

The man gave them a fake name: Jun Crabtree. But he told detectives he “had to try,” and quickly corrected himself, according to an arrest report.

His real name, detectives learned, was Joseph Damico.

An admission of guilt

Damico, 50, appeared on a small screen at the Pinellas County Jail visitation center wearing an orange jumpsuit. He picked up the landline phone receiver and detailed the months-long drug binge that landed him there.

“I lost everything. And I’m not that person,” he told the Tampa Bay Times, stifling sobs. “I don’t know how to explain how anything happened. I affected a lot of people.”

Over the following half hour, Damico politely declined to answer questions about his case. He also declined to say anything about where the golf carts ended up and if his buyer knew they were stolen.

Just weeks earlier, his honesty had landed him deeper in trouble, he said. In a jail interview with a detective, the Holiday man admitted to stealing 22 golf carts in Pinellas County that he traded in Manatee County for money and drugs.

Damico said deputies had promised they would divert him to a substance abuse clinic if he confessed.

“They told me they were going to help me,” he said.

Instead, the agency tacked on more charges.

Damico now faces 28 of them, including multiple counts of grand theft of a motor vehicle, dealing in stolen property and drug possession.

Detectives with the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office declined to comment on the case, citing an active investigation.

Damico’s rap sheet is filled with more than 20 felonies.

In 1998, he pleaded guilty to attacking a law enforcement officer and two counts of armed escape. Damico was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

“I went to prison for a long time,” he said. “I got out and I had a plan — a really strong plan — that I just was not going to be this kind of person, that me being in jail was something that was never going to happen again.”

After his release in 2018, Damico became a certified diver and started an underwater construction and welding business. He bought a house in Holiday with his fiancé and her two children.

“That’s me,” Damico said. “Not this. This is not me. But it doesn’t matter now.”

He started using drugs early last summer. He said they helped him stay awake while working more than 90 hours each week. He realized crack cocaine could keep him up while he tinkered on his dive tools in the garage all night.

He said he’d snorted cocaine once in his youth but that nothing prepared him for the intensity of crack. His eyes widened as he recounted that first hit.

“Boy, I’ll tell you what, that kept me awake,” Damico said.

Some weeks, he didn’t sleep for three days straight.

Damico’s two-car garage had once been packed with equipment accumulated over his years working as a commercial diver. It’s now empty after he pawned all his tools for drugs.

“It was a fast spiral,” he said.

He appeared most remorseful about how his drug abuse affected his fiancé.

“I took her to Kay’s when we got engaged, and I made her cry because I bought her this really beautiful diamond ring — $4,000,” he said, sobbing and holding his head in his hands. “I pawned it, and I smoked it.”

Because of his extensive record, Damico said he may face up to 30 years in prison if he’s found guilty. Under Florida’s “points system,” prior felony convictions can play into sentencing of a new felony, earning him mandatory prison time.

Damico, who has pleaded not guilty, will face his next pre-trial hearing on April 29.

“I lost my soon-to-be wife, my business,” he said. “Everything went down the tubes. I lost it all.”

Damico is asking for a third chance at life, which may be a longshot. If he were to get out, he said he would get clean and work to repay victims. Records show he has already paid $1,000 in restitution.

“I am a hard worker. I got a strong work ethic. I take pride in my work. I care about people,” Damico said. “None of that is reflected in what I’ve been charged with, where I find myself now.

“It’s the contradictions that make things so hard,” he said.
