Unfogettable trip - We took the sunset cruise and loved it. Joe and Jack were very friendly and helpful. We sailed along the coast of Ft. Myers and enjoyed a beautiful sunset despite the clouds.lots of dolphins crossed our path and followed our boat for a while. I was allowed to take the helm for a long time, which will make this trip unforgettable for me. Thank you Joe and Jack for this unforgettable evening.

Sail away and enjoy the bay from another point of view - Excellent captains, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly! Very relaxing 2 hours! We could sit on the mesh seating once the sails were up. (Maximum capacity for the catamaran is 25 ppl). We had a total of 5 on board. There is shade covering to get away from direct sun. This was our second cruise with Copacetic and they did not disappoint. One FYI, the parking lot charges $10 per vehicle (not part of Copacetic). There are restrooms available at the parking hut along with chairs and tables while you wait for the tour. Copacetic charges a small fees for available wine or beer. Our friends were so grateful to experience their first catamaran.

Fun & relaxing trip - We wanted a fun & relaxing catamaran boat tour, this tour delivered. The captain was personable & talked about history of the different areas we saw. His jr captain was great too. They both answered questions & made it fun. Definitely would rebook when we’re looking to go back out. Bring cash for tips, they didn’t use Venmo.

Nice, peaceful sail. - We had a 3:15 sail originally, but the weather didn’t want to cooperate. However, the crew called and said that they had an evening sail and the weather looked better. While the sun never came through the clouds, it was a very nice evening sail out to Sanibel Island where we found a dolphin looking for his dinner. The crew was very kind and even let my son and another passenger take over the ‘driving’ of the boat.

Five star sailng! - I would definitely recommend this charter, my wife and I have a great time. The captain and his hand offer a lot of great information, I was even given the opportunity to steer the boat for a while. The captain has years of sailing experience to include racing sailboats.

Amazing sail with a great crew! - It was incredibly relaxing and enjoyable and would do it again in a heartbeat. David and Joel were very knowledgeable, attentive and a joy to share the ride with. We sailed out to Sanibel and back. If I had known how relaxing it was to sail, we probably would have done a longer trip. If you are looking for an alternative to a tiki cruise, this should be your first choice.

Fun in the Sun with a great Crew - Such a great experience with amazing views! The crew went above and beyond to make the experience as memorable and fun as possible for my family. We helped steer the boat, raise the sails, and got to relax with a couple beers in the sun. (And even spotted a few playful dolphins along the way who swam right under us!) They even popped a bottle of bubbley for my dad's birthday! Couldn't recommend this sailing experience more! Thank you, Copacetic!
