Great day with Pontoon Party for this local Fort Lauderdale group! Our kickball team????Dropkick Iguanas won a Pontoon Party trip via our Redball Social League! We chartered Miss Pontoon (the double decker with slide) and Beach Babe and had a total of 23 people between 2 boats. This is a fantastic way to do a day's trip with a bigger group. Andrew, the owner, was super responsive to all of our questions in organizing beforehand. Captain Josh picked us up at the SE 3rd Ave Bridge floating dock right in the heart of Downtown Fort Lauderdale where many of us live and we had a beautiful trip to the Sandbar at the New River/Intracoastal. The boats tied together when we got to the Sandbar and we got to swim, socialize, run our Spotify music on the awesome speakers, enjoy refreshments from the large coolers (with ice) provided, hang at the transom bar, and take in views from the slide off the top deck in the midst of gorgerous scenery.
Highlights: 1. Swimming at the New River/Instracoastal Sandbar--this is a local hotspot and you get to be in shallower water with your gang. Pontoon Party provided a lily pad and some floats--we brought more and chilled in the midst of so many local boaters. Friends came up on other boats and paddleboards. 2. Captain Josh and Tyler--these guys were pros and made the trip fun. Josh took fantastic photo and video for our group that he later shared. They were encouraging and inclusive of everyone on the trip and accommodated all of our requests. 3. Top deck of Miss Pontoon cannot be missed for the views!! Thank you Pontoon Party and Redball social--looking forward to the next trip!
