Absolutely not, all of our boats have motors and captains to drive you around. The “pedal boats” have 12 pedal stations that are entirely optional.

All of our boats are a great time. It really depends on the size of your party and which boat is available for your desired date! Our up to date availability and capacity of each boat can be found on our bookings page!

Yes you may. The marina also has a full service kitchen selling a variety of hot and cold food items as well as cold drinks, beer, seltzers, frozen margaritas, Jell-O shots and champagne bottle service.

Yes, we have ample parking in front of the marina for $5 per vehicle, so carpool when possible. Please have a sober driver in your party. An uber ride or shuttle bus is much cheaper than a DUI.

Of course! Our boats are all inspected annually for safety by the United States Coast Guard. The captains driving you around are all licensed boat captains with many years of experience. The boats we use are the safest and most stable vessels on the market.

Our boats are all set up with bluetooth systems that allow YOU to be your own DJ. If there are multiple groups together on a trip, we split the bluetooth time betweens parties appropriately.

We keep a very close eye on the weather and make safety our #1 priority. Remember, even though the boats are located only 20 minutes from New Orleans, we often have completely different weather conditions. Our boats and marina are fully covered so we are able to operate rain or shine. If we judge that the weather is not safe for a boat ride, we will try to reschedule, or if not possible, refund your purchase. If you do not hear from us, everything is going out according to plan!
-
All of our boats have restrooms on board. On a boat, a restroom is referred to as a “head” and are strictly PEE ONLY.

We do. Our public trips are for adults 21 years of age and older due to the “booze cruise” nature of our operation. Children ages 6 and up are able to come along if you book a PRIVATE boat. If you do not book a private trip on one of our boats, please leave the young ones at home (:

If you need to reschedule or receive a refund for any reason, you are able to do so within 7 days of your tour. A weather cancellation can only be determined by the company. Weather related cancellations will be determined on the day of the scheduled tour only. If it is raining the tour will still go on as scheduled. If the weather is severe the company will contact you within two hours of your tour and provide you with an opportunity to reschedule or if you are not able to, we will offer you a refund.

Most likely. Our trips ride through the scenic waters of Bayou Bienvenue. The area is home to an array of wildlife, including alligators. Remember, alligators are seasonal characters and most active from late February through October. Side note: if you are afraid of gators, do not be – they are reclusive critters that mostly hunt at night. They want no business with our big boats!
-
No. The coast guard views any open flames as a fire hazard and smoking whether it is cigarettes or marijuana, is strictly prohibited on board all of our vessels.
