About This Vessel

Smooth Riding & Owner Operated

The "Laid Back" is a 2010 Intrepid 323 Open, a premium 32-foot center console known for its exceptionally smooth ride and stable deep-V hull. Twin Yamaha 300 HP outboards deliver 600 horses of reliable power, cruising comfortably at 30+ knots to make the 70-mile crossing to Dry Tortugas feel effortless.

What makes this charter special is the owner-operator captain who has been running Key West waters for over 15 years. A former Divemaster turned captain, he knows every reef, wreck, and hidden snorkel spot between Key West and Fort Jefferson. Every trip is completely private and fully customized to your group.

The Intrepid 323 offers generous shade and sun options, comfortable seating for 6, a marine head, and freshwater rinse. It is a proven platform built for serious offshore performance and all-day comfort.
