Our crew knows the local waters and the best spots to cruise aboard our custom floating tiki boat. With an “island vibe” and the beauty of Gloucester Harbor, it’s sure to be everything you need for you and your friends to have a great time.
Our vessel, "The Friki Tiki," is 36 feet long and 11.4 feet wide. The Friki Tiki is fully licensed and insured, and equipped with all safety gear required by the USCG. With plenty of room to hangout, and seating around the central table and vessel, it is a great place to kick back, relax and embrace the island vibes!
