Key West Private Celebration of Life Memorial Charter

Your family is the only group aboard – this is never a shared or attended scattering, where ashes go out with a stranger’s. A USCG-licensed local captain plans the ceremony with you by phone beforehand: the readings, the music, who will scatter, and anyone who needs extra care. Offshore he shuts the engine down and the time is yours, for as long as you need it, past the three-nautical-mile line federal rules require. Six Fins files the EPA burial-at-sea notice afterward so you are not left with paperwork. Best suited to families and small groups up to six who want an unhurried, dignified service on calm turquoise water, including elderly guests and children – there is shade, seating, and a private head aboard. Departs Stock Island with free parking steps from the dock.

A note on our photos: at families’ request, our images show the boat and local waters only – never memorial guests or ceremonies.
