Picking the Perfect Boat for Your Crew

Let's be real—the boat you choose is the absolute heart of your party. It's your crew's private floating headquarters for the day, and it sets the entire tone for your Lake Travis adventure. Are you planning a wild, all-out bachelorette bash that needs room to dance? Or is this a more laid-back corporate outing where you can chat and relax?

Whatever you've got planned, matching the boat to your vibe is the first, most crucial step to creating a legendary day on the water.

Imagine the sound of your whole crew erupting in cheers as someone flies down a waterslide off the second story of a massive party barge. That's pure, unfiltered fun. Now, picture a more chilled-out scene: your group sipping drinks on the plush seats of a luxury pontoon as the Texas sun dips below the hills. Every boat in our fleet is built for a specific kind of good time.

We've laid out all the details on our boats so you can practically feel the sun and hear the music already. Let’s find the perfect ride for your crew.

For the Ultimate Party Animals: The Double-Decker

When you want to go big, nothing—and we mean nothing—beats a double-decker party boat. These floating fortresses are the undisputed kings of Lake Travis, built from the ground up for maximum fun and maximum capacity. With two huge levels, your whole group has tons of room to spread out, dance, and catch some rays.

And that top deck? It’s not just for the amazing views. It’s the epicenter of the action. Most of our double-deckers come equipped with an awesome waterslide, turning the entire lake into your personal waterpark. It’s an instant party-starter that keeps the energy cranked up all day.

What makes these boats the go-to for big groups?

• Tons of Space: You can easily host a huge party without ever feeling like you're packed in like sardines.
• Waterslides: This is the ultimate feature for non-stop thrills and, let's be honest, some seriously epic photos.
• Killer Sound Systems: We've got powerful speakers rigged on both levels to make sure the party playlist is pumping everywhere.

These boats were practically made for bachelor parties, bachelorette weekends, and big birthday blowouts. If you want to throw the most talked-about party on the lake, you need to explore our double-decker party boats and lock one down for your crew before they're gone.

For Stylish Cruising & Good Times: The Luxury Pontoon

Forget what you think you know about pontoons. These are not your grandpa's old fishing boat. Our premium pontoons are sleek, modern, and absolutely loaded with features designed for a comfortable, stylish day of cruising. They're the perfect call for groups who want a super fun and lively vibe in a slightly more intimate setting.

Think of it as your own private lounge floating on the water. With comfy, wraparound seating, there's plenty of space for everyone to kick back, chat, and enjoy a cold drink. They’re also incredibly versatile—perfect for dropping anchor in a quiet cove for a swim or for pulling right into the middle of the action at Devil's Cove.

Our luxury pontoons are proof that you don't need a second story to have a first-class experience. They deliver all the fun, comfort, and premium features you need for an unforgettable day on Lake Travis.

These boats are a fantastic choice for family get-togethers, smaller birthday parties, and corporate team-building events where the conversation is just as important as the celebration.

Matching Your Crew Size to the Right Boat

Getting the right size boat is a game-changer for both comfort and safety. Squeezing too many people on board is a surefire way to kill the vibe, but a boat that’s way too big can feel a little empty. No worries, though—we make it super simple by listing the max passenger capacity for every single boat in our fleet.

Here’s a quick cheat sheet to help you out:

Group Size	Recommended Boat Type	Best For…
1-15 Guests	Luxury Pontoon Boat	Intimate birthdays, family outings, small teams.
16-25 Guests	Large Pontoon or Double-Decker	Most bachelor/bachelorette parties, big groups.
25+ Guests	The Ultimate Double-Decker	Massive celebrations, corporate events.

Booking is just a click away. Find your boat, snag your date, and get ready for an awesome party boat adventure on Lake Travis. Your crew is going to love you for it

The "Last Sail Before the Veil" Crew

Honestly, is there a better way to celebrate an upcoming wedding than on a party boat on Lake Travis? We don't think so. For bachelor and bachelorette parties, the mission is simple: high-energy fun, great music, and non-stop celebration. Your day should be all about hitting the lake's most iconic party spots.

The undisputed main event is Devil's Cove. This place is legendary, cementing its status as one of Texas's top party destinations and the absolute epicenter of fun on the water. On any given weekend, you'll see hundreds of boats tied up together, creating a massive floating city of music and good vibes. It's a spectacle you have to see to believe, and it's the perfect place for your crew to dive into the action. To get the full scoop, check out our complete guide to Devil's Cove.

Your captain will find the perfect spot to drop anchor, roll out the giant lily pad, and let the party begin. It's the ultimate Lake Travis experience that every bachelor and bachelorette group deserves.

The Milestone Birthday Bash

A birthday on the lake is all about making the guest of honor feel like a true VIP. The perfect itinerary strikes a balance between high-energy fun and breathtaking scenery, creating a celebration that feels truly special. We'll kick things off with a lively cruise, letting your group jam out to their favorite playlist while soaking up the Texas sun.

Later, we can head to a quieter, more scenic cove for swimming, floating, and enjoying some cake and drinks. It’s a great chance for everyone to chill out and connect away from the bigger crowds.

The Grand Finale: Want to make it truly unforgettable? Time your trip to catch the sunset. A Lake Travis sunset is a spectacular show of color, giving you the most incredible backdrop for photos and a perfect ending to a perfect day.

Remember, this is all customizable. We can create the perfect vibe that fits the birthday person's style to a T.

The Corporate Team That Earned It

Tired of the same old trust falls and stuffy office parties? A corporate outing on Lake Travis is the ultimate way to reward your team and build real connections. For these trips, the goal is less about a wild party and more about creating a relaxed, fun environment where colleagues can actually unwind and get to know each other.

We can put together a day focused on teamwork and pure relaxation:

• A Scenic Tour: We'll cruise past stunning landmarks like the Mansfield Dam and the beautiful cliffside homes, providing a gorgeous backdrop for conversation.
• Team-Building Fun: Anchoring in a peaceful cove is perfect for swimming, friendly water games, or just floating and chatting on the lily pad.
• A True Escape: Getting out of the office and onto the water creates a unique setting where team members can connect on a more personal level, without any pressure.

This is the kind of experience that builds camaraderie in a way no conference room ever could. It’s a fantastic way to boost morale and show your team just how much you appreciate their hard work.

• Sun Protection Essentials: The Texas sun is no joke, trust us. Bring high-SPF sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to keep everyone comfortable all day long.

What to Leave on Shore

Just as important as what you pack is what you don't pack. To keep things safe, fun, and totally hassle-free for everyone, please leave these items at home:

• Glass Bottles: For safety's sake, please stick to cans and plastic containers. Bare feet and broken glass are a party foul nobody wants.
• Red Wine or Staining Drinks: These are notorious for staining the boat's upholstery. It’s best to stick with clear or light-colored drinks.
• Pets: We love our four-legged friends, but our boats just aren't set up to safely accommodate them.

Our mission is to make your day 100% stress-free. Following these simple rules helps us make sure your entire group has a smooth, safe, and ridiculously fun experience from the second you step aboard.
