FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
đ´ââ ď¸ Do we need a reservation?
Arrr, aye! We be highly suggestinâ ye claim yer spot well in advance, lest ye be left ashore cryinâ in yer grog. In busy seasons, our voyages fill up faster than a chest of rum at a sailorâs tavernâoft two to three days ahead, if not more! Best to book early in yer stay, so yeâve time to rebook if foul weather forces us back to port.
â Book future cruises online.
đ Same-day mutiny? Call the dockhands after 10AM (or 9AM if there be a 10AM sailinâ) at 727-446-2587.
â° What time should we arrive?
To be sure ye donât miss the boat (literally), plan to be in the parkinâ lot 1 hour before yer voyage. This gives ye time for traffic, parkinâ, and snagginâ yer ticket. If ye show up less than 20 minutes before we cast off, yer spot may be forfeit to another lucky pirate.
đ° Do ye offer any discounts?
Nay, matey! We keep our treasure chest locked tight and our fares already as low as a sea hagâs belly button. Every scallywag pays fair and squareâso no need for hagglinâ or doubloons under the table.
âď¸ What be the best way to reach Captain Memoâs?
đ By phone: 727-446-2587, from 10AM until the last ship sails.
đ§ By parrotâor email: info@captainmemo.com, checked every few hours.

đż Do ye serve food on board?
We carry emergency rations (chips ânâ snacks) at the bar, but no full meals. Best fill yer belly on land before boardinâ, lest ye end up fightinâ a matey over a bag oâ pretzels.
đś Can I bring me dog?
Nay, matey. We love our furry friends, but a ship deck be no place fer pupsâtoo hot, no relief, anâ the cannon fire be too rough on their ears. For the safety oâ all creatures, no dogs allowed aboard.
âż Do ye allow wheelchairs or strollers?
Sadly, gettinâ on, off, anâ about the ship be rough seas fer wheels. But worry notâthere be plenty oâ seating on all decks, and weâve space at the dock to keep yer stroller or chair safe till ye return.

Captain Memo
June 5, 1948 â October 13, 2009
đ´ââ ď¸ The Legend of Captain Memo & Panama Pam â
Long before he took the helm as Clearwaterâs most famed buccaneer, Captain Memo was but a landlubber known as Bill Wozencraft, shackled to a suit ânâ tie as a life insurance agent. Each dawn he rose, facinâ rejection from 95 souls a dayâuntil one morninâ he cast off the chains oâ that life, seekinâ a better way to carve his mark upon this world.
Alongside his fair lady, Panama Pamâonce a noble teacher oâ the Hearing Impairedâhe set sail from California on a humble 30-foot vessel, guidinâ her âround the mighty Panama Canal and into the unknown. Their dream: reach the Caribbean within a year.
But the sea be a fickle mistressâwhat they planned fer one year stretched into two and a half, their coffers runninâ dry, their sails wearinâ thin. Yet from hardship was born destiny⌠for never in his wildest dreams did Captain Memo imagine his fate would be to plunder, pillage, and bring joy as a pirate king upon the sands oâ Clearwater Beach. đâ ď¸
