The Yacht That Started Yacht Away Now
Our flagship is a 52ft Marquis Flybridge — a luxury three-deck yacht that accommodates up to 13 guests. Whether it's a sunset cruise, bachelorette party, or a group of best friends living it up, she's the right boat for the best day on the water. She set the bar for everything else we add to the platform.
Three levels of space — over 1,200 sq ft of cabin and over 800 sq ft of outside deck and bridge area. Powered by high-output 1320hp engines moving at 30+ knots, with a 600 mile range that opens up overnight runs along the Gulf Coast and Florida Keys.
A curated collection — not a marketplace. Our flagship Marquis is the most popular yacht we charter, but we operate a hand-selected platform of premium private vessels from like-minded owners. No commodity rentals, no jet skis, no party barges. Contact us to discuss the right boat for your group.
Need overnight cabins for sleep-aboard groups? Charter our larger sister yacht: Sly Fox — 4-bedroom luxury yacht sleeping six guests.
