Why become a boat charter partner
Our guests plan more than a boat ride. They're celebrating birthdays, proposals and reunions, hosting clients, or visiting Jacksonville for the weekend.
So, they often ask us who to call for the food, the stay or the photos. When they do, we want to point them to local businesses we trust. That's where you come in.

- Recommendations to our guestsWhen guests ask who we'd use, we'll share your details.
- Easy coordinationFor anything that meets the boat, such as catering, we'll help line up the timing at the dock.

Questions before you become a boat charter partner
Do I need to work on boats to become a partner?
No. Many partners never step aboard. Vacation rentals, photographers, florists and bakeries all help our guests plan the rest of their trip.
Does my business have to be in Jacksonville?
You need to serve Northeast Florida: Jacksonville, the beaches, Ponte Vedra or Amelia Island, because that's where our guests are.
Will my listing link to my website?
Yes. Each partner listing includes your website or main social page, plus your phone number or email.
Can I be listed in more than one category?
Yes, if your business offers more than one service. Tell us about each one in the form.
How do bookings work?
Guests contact and pay you directly. You set your own prices and terms, and we simply recommend you.
