Descripción

Sometimes it's nice to have the whole boat to yourself.  Schedule a day sail for brunch/lunch with swimming or without.  Book an intimate sunset sail with cocktails and apps for you and your friends.  Bring your family down to the islands for a gathering on the Gulf of Mexico!  Perhaps an elegant dinner catered aboard while enjoying the sunset and celebrating a birthday or anniversary?

You can host your wedding ceremony, welcome sail, rehearsal sail or reception sail aboard The Argo for memories that last a lifetime ~ it's also the perfect place to pop the question or host a holiday party!  And, we've found, corporate retreats are always better on the water, building camaraderie and fostering interchange among employees.  Daysail or sunset sails are available for all activities depending on your hopes for the day.

Swim trips can vary from 3 - 8 hours with activities available such as snorkeling, paddle boarding, swimming, sailing. If you'd like to do some island hopping around Key West, add in our 19' Zodiak skiff with a captain, to show you around some of the surrounding waters. 

Our maximum passenger count varies depending on what sort of charter you're booking.  We're Coast Guard rated for 90 passengers but find that to be unrealistic.  We can easily handle 65-70 passengers for sails that do not include swimming activities, but for intimate dining experiences of course we would recommend a much smaller number.

Since there's no 'one size fits all' private charter, please give us a call at 305-509-2719 for rates and availability so we can discuss.  

We look forward to hearing from you ~ the captain and crew of the S/V Argo Navis deliver an experience that exceeds expectations!

For daytime swim charters, we have a large floating lily pad that fits up to 4 at a time, 2 BOTE water hammocks, swim noodles and snorkels, as well as access to the catamaran trampoline at the bow of the boat for lounging & sunbathing.  If the guest would like to add it to their trip, we have a 19' rib skiff available to tender guests to shore, go sightseeing or tubing while the catamaran is at anchor.  A 3 hour minimum sail would provide opportunities to snorkel some nearby spots, sight see and enjoy the sun. To get to a sandbar or the reef, a 4.5 hour minimum trip is necessary. To get to Boca Grande island, a 7 hour trip is appropriate.
