Comfort Aboard

A Real Bathroom — Yes, Really

A lot of charters say they have a "bathroom." Too often that means a bucket, or a cramped four-foot box you have to crawl into. Colorado Blue is different. She has a genuine private head with 6'2" of standing headroom, a sink, a light, and a door that actually closes for privacy. No crouching, no awkwardness, no cutting your day short — just a real bathroom you'll be glad is there. It's one of the biggest reasons families and groups choose her.

Shade When You Need a Break

Key West sun is no joke, so Colorado Blue's hardtop gives you a place to get out of it. The helm and the seats around the console sit in the shade, and when we're anchored up, your captain can position the boat to put that shade where you want it. The bow seating is open to the sun — perfect for soaking up the rays — but relief from the heat is always just a few steps away.

Plenty of Room to Relax

Colorado Blue is built for comfort with generous bow seating — stretch out, take in the ride, and don't miss a single moment of Key West's water. There's plenty of dry storage too, with room for everything you bring along: purses, jackets, bags, and all your day-trip essentials, tucked safely out of the way.

Rinse Off the Salt

A freshwater shower on board means you can rinse off the salt and sand after a swim or a snorkel — so you head home comfortable, not crusty. Little touches like this are what make a long day on the water feel easy.

Your Day, Your Soundtrack

A premium JL Audio sound system with Bluetooth means your playlist comes along for the ride. Cruising to the sandbar, anchored up for the afternoon, or running home at sunset — set the vibe and let the good times roll.

Easy In, Easy Out

Get In and Out of the Water with Ease

Colorado Blue has a side dive door with steps that lead right down to the water — so swimming, snorkeling, and climbing back aboard is genuinely easy for everyone, from kids to grandparents. No awkward scrambling over the gunwale. And for the stern, there's a boarding ladder as well, giving you two simple, secure ways back on board after a swim.

Safe and Sound

Your peace of mind comes standard. Colorado Blue carries life jackets for everyone aboard, along with emergency flares, two fire extinguishers, and a life raft — all maintained and ready. Your captain knows these waters, and the boat is equipped for whatever the day brings, so you can relax and focus on the fun.

We've Got You Covered

One of the best things about a day on Colorado Blue? You don't need to bring much at all. We've got the gear, the licenses, and the little extras handled — so you can just show up ready for fun.

Fishing? It's All Handled.

No license, no gear, no problem. Colorado Blue carries six fishing licenses right on the boat, so nobody in your group needs to buy one. We supply all the rods, reels, tackle, and bait — quality gear, ready to go. Just bring yourself and your sense of adventure; we'll take care of the rest.

Snorkel Gear Included

Heading to the reef? We provide all the snorkeling equipment you need for the day — masks, fins, and snorkels — so there's nothing to rent and nothing to pack. Just hop in and explore.

Made for Sandbar Days

For those long, lazy afternoons at the sandbar, Colorado Blue comes stocked with two BOTE lounge chairs and a Sun Chill float — so you can kick back in the shallows and soak up the Keys the way they're meant to be enjoyed.

Cold Drinks Within Reach

Bring your favorite food and drinks — we've got two coolers ready: a 75-quart cooler that slides out for easy loading, plus a 35-quart cooler kept handy for grabbing cold drinks throughout the day. Pack a lunch, bring the refreshments, and we'll keep everything cold.
