Then relax back at your quiet floating oasis, sip a sparkling cucumber water as you end your day swaying under the stars.
Please note: Staying on a boat has some added risks that a house does not. Decks get slippery and you must step from the dock to the boat, it is not a huge step but some guests may find it challenging. With that in mind we do require a signed waiver to stay. This will be sent to you after you book and you will need sign it and send it back to us to confirm your booking. Thank you for understanding.
Disclaimer: To ensure the best fit for your stay: this is an authentic boat experience so it will not be the same feeling as staying in a house or hotel, (which is kinda the point 🙂). Water pressure may be lighter, there will be slight rocking, and although there is air conditioning, temperatures may not be as low as you would like (low to mid 70s are normal). If you’re expecting a hotel-like environment, this may feel different. This is not a hotel, you will have the full experience of staying on a boat, living the local Key West life. Please keep these things in mind when you book. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to us before you book so we can make your vacation as enjoyable as possible!

About the host
Hosted by Josh Heimel
Originally from Tennessee, I moved down to Key West for college in 2020. I met my wife down here and we fell in love with the islands. I now own a boat repair company and my wife is a scuba dive instructor. We love anything and everything to do with the water! We are so excited to open up our boat to you and share our love for the ocean!
Why they chose this property
Key West has so much to offer, from relaxing beaches, to crystal clear waters, fresh seafood, friendly neighbors and so much more!
What makes this property unique
This classic 65’ Hatteras is truly one of a kind! My wife and I redid the whole boat, turning her into the beauty you see now! She has all the comforts of home…but don’t underestimate her. She makes the most memorable fishing and diving trips, out into the deep blue waters of the Caribbean!
