Who you are dealing with

A St. Petersburg team

The same five-star team that brought you Well Played Charters is now bringing new Editions to the water. Founder Pam Cole, in her own words.

Pam Cole, founder of Well Played Editions

A boat rental in St. Pete, FL should feel like a day away rather than a transaction. Well Played puts a private yacht in your group's hands for the day, with a licensed captain, crew and fuel included. You choose the boat, bring your people, and we look after everything else.

Born on the water. Built for everything beyond it.

Before we were Well Played Editions, we were Well Played Charters, the Tampa Bay crew behind more than 500 five-star reviews. Same captains, same care, same standard. Now we are bringing it to a bigger fleet, from Tampa Bay to Miami, and to everything around the day: private chefs, transport, events and the people who make them happen. Read our reviews.

What a Well Played day looks like

A day begins when the office confirms your meeting point and you step aboard. From there the pace is yours: a slow lap of the water, lunch at anchor, a swim, a long afternoon with the music you like. The yacht is private to your group, so there are no strangers on board and no schedule to keep other than your own.

Each yacht has its own page with photographs, the number of guests she takes and what she carries. Every boat is listed by length and model, so you can compare them and choose the one that suits your group.

Boat rental in St. Pete, with the waterfront as your view

St. Petersburg sits on Tampa Bay, and the water starts at the city's edge. The downtown waterfront, the St. Pete Pier and the Vinoy shoreline make some of the best views you can have from a boat. The office confirms your meeting point before the day, so you always know exactly where to arrive.

From the bay, the Gulf side of the coast comes within reach. Shell Key, Egmont Key and Fort De Soto are popular with guests who want sandbars and clear water, and the captain chooses the spot to anchor off depending on the day's wind, tide and traffic. Tell us what you have in mind and we shape the day around it.

Occasions we charter for

  • Birthdays and milestone celebrations
  • Sunset cruises, which you can read about on our private sunset cruise page
  • Family days and visiting friends
  • Corporate entertaining and client days, including yacht rental in Tampa
  • Boat trips from Clearwater Beach
  • Proposals, anniversaries and quiet evenings for two
  • Wedding weekends and rehearsal-dinner outings

If your occasion is not on the list, ask. Most days are a mix of two or three of these.

How booking works

  1. Send an enquiry with your date, your group size and the kind of day you would like.
  2. We reply with the boat we suggest and a quote.
  3. A deposit holds your date, and we confirm the details with you before the day.

There is nothing to work out on your own. If you want a chef or something special on board, say so in the enquiry and the office arranges it. You are welcome to bring your own drinks, and we can arrange a chef or provisions if you would like more.

Every service, one team

Well Played is more than boats. A guest can ask for several of these in a single enquiry, and one team keeps them together.

  • Yacht charters: the Tampa Bay fleet, with captain, crew and fuel included.
  • Yacht charter management: for owners who want their boat run and chartered well.
  • Private chefs: a chef for your day, quoted by the office.
  • Crew staffing: licensed captains, deckhands, stewards and full crews for charters and events.
  • Curated Connections: photographers, florals, décor, DJs, rentals and entertainment through one concierge.
  • Content shoots: vessels, locations, crew and styling for brands and creators.
  • Events: gatherings planned around a yacht.
  • Private jets: private jet charters and chauffeured transport coordinated with your yacht day.
