Gasparilla Pirate Invasion Charter

Gasparilla Yacht Charters available through Tampa Bay Yacht Charter 727-776-8199
Named for pirate Jose Gaspar, who terrorized the coastal waters of West Florida during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Tampa's annual Gasparilla celebration begins with the Gasparilla Invasion by mythical pirate José Gaspar and his crew. Members of Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla, accompanied by a flotilla of hundreds of smaller boats, sail across Tampa Bay to downtown Tampa on the Jose Gasparilla, a 165' long "pirate" ship. Once the ship lands, the pirate captain demands that the mayor hand over the key to the city in a playful ceremony. 
​

Join the fun aboard your own Gasparilla pirate ship!
​
The Gasparilla Parade of Pirates takes place the last Saturday of January
Please see information below if you're interested in booking! 

Gasparilla Details 

For Gasparilla, the Smooth C's can accommodate 18 passengers and includes two (2) USCG master captains and two (2) additional crewmembers. We also include a light breakfast and lunch, bottled water, soft drinks, coffee and tea. Pricing also includes fuel. Rental includes up to 8 hours on the day of Gasparilla and
​up to 1 hour the night before to provision/decorate. 

Price: $6,750 plus tax and $600 security deposit 

Terms: $2000 non-refundable deposit is required upon contracting.
The final balance is due 3 weeks prior to Gasparilla and is non-refundable.
​The $600 security deposit is refunded the day after Gasparilla as long as there are no damages or remaining liabilities. 
Crew Gratuity is not included and is standard in the industry. 

This price is roughly the same per person ($375 per person when divided by 18) which should be similar to Yacht Starship's public cruise pricing per person for their their 2.5 hour public cruise, yet you get our yacht all to yourself, and all day!

We offer a much better value cruising on our private yacht!

If you're chartering a crewed vessel for more than 6 passengers, the law states that the vessel must be USCG certified as a passenger vessel. Don't put yourself or your guests at risk by accepting a demise or bareboat agreement! Read more .... 
  • Vessels are regularly inspected by the Coast Guard to ensure all safety equipment and training of the Captain and crew are monitored. The design of the boat itself is maximized for safety and must pass several inspections.
  • Coast Guard Certified vessels are insured more thoroughly.  Continue reading >
