SeaLab is a six-cabin, six-head catamaran equipped with a full kitchen, spacious seating areas both in front and behind the flydeck, as well as behind the helm, two Dometic coolers in addition to a full fridge and a freezer. In addition, this is a sailboat so whether or not the engines are on, you are in for a quieter experience. SeaLab began its charter life as "Rumba." It was purchased and then overhauled to deliver more modern amenities. A win-win for you and the environment.

SeaLab is currently docked at the Perry Marina & Hotel, which gives you access to hotel amenities which include two pools, public showers, restrooms, a captain's lounge and the Perry's wonderful restaurants. You can then hop on a shuttle and get to Downtown Key West for more adventures. Or you can find a captain (one at your choice, subject to insurance approval, or one from the list below) and enjoy the surrounding area, including the unique Dry Tortugas.

SeaLab is available approximately 12 weeks out of the year for pleasure charters. We choose our guests carefully. Subject to certain requirements, SeaLab can be used by up to 12 individuals in a bareboat arrangement. You can book her at the dock, without a captain or with a captain to take her off the dock. We have already met and vetted certain captains to make it easier for you if you so wish:
