Next Chapter Charters LLC operates private charters out of Key West, Florida, offering fishing, snorkeling, and scenic cruises aboard the 39' Invincible charter boat Lilly II. The vessel features a powerful 1050-horsepower engine, comfortable seating for six guests, a private bathroom, and an upgraded sound system. Next Chapter Charters provides a selection of private trips including half day, three-quarter day, and full day fishing charters, dedicated Dry Tortugas and Fort Jefferson excursions, sunset cruises, and fully customizable private charters for families, friends, and small groups.
Full-day Dry Tortugas and Fort Jefferson trips are eight-hour adventures that travel roughly 70 miles to the remote park. These excursions can include historical visits to Fort Jefferson, snorkeling over vibrant reef sections of the third-largest barrier reef, and stops at sandbars for beach time. Half-day private fishing charters are described as four-hour trips tailored for up to six guests, offering a comfortable platform for nearshore fishing. Three-quarter-day and full-day custom charters allow extended time on productive grounds.
Sunset private charters run about two hours inside Key West Harbor and emphasize relaxing panoramic views, comfortable seating, and an enjoyable onboard atmosphere. The Lilly II is a premium platform for both anglers and leisure travelers, combining power and amenities to support fishing, snorkeling, and scenic outings.
Next Chapter Charters designs itineraries to match guest interests and timeframes. Group size limits, vessel configuration, and trip durations make the offerings suitable for families, small groups, and fishing parties seeking private, comfortable, and memorable experiences in Key West waters.
