Give a day on the Gulf

Nobody needs another candle. Give someone a morning wakesurfing, an evening watching the sun drop into the Gulf, or a full day on the bay with Captain ET.

How it works

  • Pick an amount and pay through Stripe, the same secure checkout as a booking.
  • Captain ET sends the certificate by email, usually within a few hours.
  • Print it, forward it, or hand over your phone. However you want to give it.
  • No expiration date. Good toward any charter he runs.

Choose an amount

Any amount works. It comes off their total, so a smaller gift just means a smaller balance on the day.

A boat charter gift certificate, out of Englewood

This is a gift card for a day on the water with Captain ET, running out of 1000 S McCall Rd in Englewood, Florida. It works like a credit. You pay for whatever amount you want, the certificate comes to your email, and whoever you give it to books the charter they actually want later. The amount comes off their total.

People buy these for birthdays, Father's Day, anniversaries, graduations, and for the person in the family who already owns every piece of fishing gear ever made. If you have snowbird parents on Manasota Key or friends coming down for a week in March, a certificate is the one gift that does not have to be shipped.

What they can put it toward

Any charter Captain ET runs. Here is what things cost right now, so you can size the gift if you want it to cover a whole trip.

Wakesurf, 2 hours
$500
Dolphin & Wildlife, 2 hours
$275
Sunset Cruise, 90 min
$250
Saturday Session seat
$149

Those are whole-boat prices, not per person, up to six guests. Longer wakesurf charters run to $1,100 for six hours. A certificate also covers the trip fee if they want the boat trailered somewhere else, and gear is included on every charter anyway.

Worth knowing: wakesurf rates go up when Captain ET is back on the water in late November. A certificate bought now is just a dollar amount, so the smart move for a bigger gift is to book the charter at today's rate instead and gift the booking. Text him and he will set it up that way.

Buying it last minute

Fine. Pay for it tonight and it lands in your inbox in time to print before dinner. If you are inside a couple of hours, text Captain ET at 941-883-1360 once you have paid and he will send it straight over. There is no shipping, nothing to wrap, and nothing that shows up late.

Questions people ask

Usually within a few hours, and same day either way. It arrives by email as a certificate you can print or forward. If you are buying it the night before you need it, text Captain ET at 941-883-1360 after you pay and he will get it out right then.
No. There is no expiration date and no fee for sitting on it. Captain ET is back running charters out of Englewood from late November, and the credit sits there until they are ready to use it.
Any charter Captain ET runs. Wakesurf charters start at $500 for two hours, the Dolphin and Wildlife Tour is $275 for two hours, a private sunset cruise is $250, and a Saturday Session seat is $149. It also covers gear and the trip fee if they want the boat trailered to them.
No. The amount comes off their total like a credit, so a smaller gift just means a smaller balance on the day. The minimum is $50.
Yes. Tick the box at checkout, add their name and email, and write them a note if you want one on there. Otherwise it comes to you and you hand it over however you like.
Text Captain ET. Gift certificates are not refundable, but the credit stays good and it can be moved to somebody else in the family if the person you bought it for is not going to use it.
That is how most people use it. They book the charter they want, the certificate comes off the total, and they pay the rest on the day by cash, card, Venmo or Zelle.

Not sure a certificate is the right call?

Read through the charters and pricing first, or look at the wakesurf charters, the dolphin tours and the sunset cruise so you know what you are handing over. If you would rather lock in a date as well as the money, book the charter in their name and Captain ET will put the confirmation in whatever name you want on it.

Still stuck, text 941-883-1360. He will tell you straight what works for the person you are buying for.
