How big are the boats at Captain Marvins?

We are planning on taking a stingray snorkel trip but would like to know how big there boats are and how many passengers they take at once. Couldn't find the info on their web page.

I believe they are about 55 feet.

We had maybe twenty people on our trip and it felt quite empty.

About the size of an average fishing boat....here are some pics I took during our stingray excursion with Captain Marvins but I do not have any of the entire boat. Just DD driving it and a view off the back....as well as the rays, of course!!!

When you get to the webshots site....just hit the forward arrow on the page to advance thru the next few pics of the rays.

I agree with the number of about 20 people per boat. They had a covered area where the "driver" is, and there are a few seats there. There's an area "below" where the bathroom is (very limited!) and open seats on the main deck by the driver. Then there are seats on the cover part that you access by ladder (going up over the "driver"). They don't let kids up there without parents, and don't like you going and coming while you're moving, but those seats are pretty cool!
