Loved staying on this boat during our vacation in Marathon. The boat was gorgeous and comfortable and we got daily visits from several manatees and pelicans. A perfect stay!
Had an incredible stay for first time on a sailboat! Definitely recommend staying and booking Capt for a day out on the water. Great first experience staying on a boat. We will be back!
Comfy and food location. Fun for our grandson who enjoyed fishing off the dock. Renters should know this is a lot like staying in an RV. Fun and interesting but not luxurious. We knew what to expect and it was great.

Probably better for younger folks
Jim and Ann Marie were very nice and easy to communicate with. However, the yacht took a bit more flexibility for us for a vacation trip. More like camping, ie at low tide, a bit of a jump onto the boat; can't flush toilet paper (had to go in basket and then brought to trash can); boat parked in marina and which was not particularly scenic, but we did see one manatee in the marina.
Our four night stay aboard Sweet Chariot was wonderful. It all starts with the owners, Anne Marie and Captain Jim. They obviously love their boat and take great care of her. She's beautiful and all systems are in great working order. They are fantastic hosts that insured my wife and I were comfortable during our stay. They were very easy to communicate with.
The boat is exactly as the pictures show, so there is no need to elaborate. The pics look great because the boat is fantastic. I loved the layout of the boat. It was very efficient and comfortable. And the fact that it has two bathrooms w/showers was a bonus I didn't expect.
The location could not have been better. The marina it was located in was not a huge, bustling marina with docks, boats and people spanning out in every direction. It was actually a small "cove" off the side of the main channel into all the marinas. So there only were about a dozen boats docked at the location. It was beautiful, quiet and well protected from waves or boat traffic. Manatees didn't just come visit on occasion, they actually appeared to live there and were always bobbing around the water.
Getting to the boat was as easy as could be. The Marina entrance is one block off of state highway 1 in the center of the city of Marathon. You park your car in the parking lot, take about 30 steps and you are stepping onto the boat.
We loved our stay and will certainly want to stay onboard in the future!
We also recommend taking advantage of chartering Sweet Chariot during your stay. We chartered for a full day and it was a perfect sail.
