Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise Named Clearwater Beach's Top Charter Boat

Visit St. Petersburg Clearwater Awards Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise the 2018 Bestie for Best Charter Boat

Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise

​In a ceremony held in late January, Captain Memo’s Pirate Cruise was awarded Visit St. Petersburg Clearwater’s 2018 Bestie as the top charter boat in the St. Petersburg and Clearwater region. Captain Memo’s Pirate Cruise was extended the award due in large part to the impact their business has on the region. Visitors come from all over the world planning their vacation to Clearwater Beach around a voyage on the Pirate’s Ransom.

Recently named America’s Top Beach of 2018 by Trip Advisor, Clearwater Beach has been home to Captain Memo’s Pirate Cruise since its inception nearly 40 years ago. While new amenity-filled, high-rise resorts join Clearwater Beach’s skyline at a record pace, the bright red pirate ship continues to occupy its place sailing along the horizon and inspiring awe among all who gaze upon it.

With dozens of charter boats to choose from, it makes me feel so special to be honored and so proud of all our employees who show up to work each day with a desire to put a smile on each of our guest's faces.

Pamela Wozencraft, Owner

When asked how it felt to receive the distinction, Captain Memo’s Pirate Cruise founder Pam Wozencraft reflected back on the region’s growth. “What was once a sleepy beach town has now become one of the country’s top destinations for vacationers seeking sun and fun. With dozens of charter boats to choose from, it makes me feel so special to be honored and so proud of all our employees who show up to work each day with a desire to put a smile on each of our guest’s faces. Receiving this award just reaffirms my stance that family-focused fun is still as desirable as ever.”

About Captain Memo’s Pirate Cruise

Located 30 minutes west of Tampa on Clearwater Beach, Captain Memo’s two-hour cruise captures the magic of pirate legend and lore, providing a fun-filled adventure for the entire family. Their program is designed for all ages, which sets them apart from most of the charter boat offerings in the region and makes the cruise a favorite among all types of groups. The cruise sails seven days a week year-round, but cruise times change seasonally and space is very limited, with cruises selling out months in advance, so reservations are recommended.
