Our Captains


Our pontoon boat captains love what they do! Captain Chrissy is a seasoned Captain and boater with an eye for spying wildlife in the air and water. She's an awesome diver and trainer for Scalloping Tours. Captain Stephanie is also a seasoned tour guide, very informative and friendly with a sense of humor.

    We took a manatee tour in The Homosassa springs area and it was fantastic! Captains Steph and Chrissy were fun and informative. The boat is very comfortable. We saw dozens of manatee and their pups as well as other wildlife. We throughly enjoyed ourselves and are looking forward to another trip.

  • I went on a boat tour with them and it was so much fun! They let us bring our pups and stopped at local bars. They were so friendly and energetic! Thanks so much!

  • When 3 of my girlfriends and I decided to rent a pontoon boat for a few hours of fun on the water, we selected Boats of Ozello because we knew it was owned and operated by 2 local women….what a great decision!!! Steph was our Captain…..Her unique knowledge of the water, along with the history of the area, was just the beginning of our adventure…adding in her friendly and helpful attitude made it perfect! I’m attaching a picture of us “Monkey-ing Around” at a local Monkey Island eatery – We’ve already made plans to do this on a regular basis!

    My fiance and I went out with Capt Steph. She is one experienced boater. I felt safe while out on the water. We saw dolphins and visited Monkey Island. I used to live in this area over 20 years ago. I saw some beauty in the water that I did not even knew existed. Capt Steph has a great down to earth personality. She has a great sense of humor too. So if you are in the Crystal River area in Florida look for Ozello Keys Pontoon Tours. Thank you !!!!!

  • Our boating experience was amazing! We got to bring our dogs along with us and they took us out onto the Homosassa river up to the spring. We saw dolphins and monkeys! It was a really great afternoon and we got to enjoy Florida’s natural beauty. The ladies were so kind and knowledgeable about the area and we had a blast!

  • My wife and I did a boat tour with captain Stephanie she was wonderful polite nice very knowledgeable we had a great time with her I would go out on the boat with her anytime anywhere.

  • We absolutely loved Stefanie and Chris! They were incredibly knowledgeable of the area, and were open for fishing, swimming, snorkeling, or just riding around. They answered us back immediately, and made every effort to accommodate our time there. In addition to that, they were super cool and we enjoyed just hanging with them. I would highly recommend them to everyone, whether you’re looking to just fish and hit several spots, or ride and enjoy all the natural beauty Crystal River has to offer- which is a lot! They even spotted a manatee out swimming outside of the springs, near the gulf opening, and we got in and were able to swim and pet him. It was incredible! We will always remember that, and we will definitely be back!

  • We had a wonderful tour with boats of Ozello! The captains were all very knowledgeable on the area. We saw plenty of wildlife and appreciates that the tour was dog friendly. Our dogs had the time of their lives! We also loved the extra stop for cold drinks!

We did a fishing tour and the next day a tour to Homosassa’s clear water area with Chrissy. She was just perfect and explained us everything. She was very helpful for fishing. We caught 3 fish and they were ready to cook in the afternoon!!!

The next day we went to Homosassa to see the manatees. Chrissy even brought a life jacket and a dog board for our Goldie so that she could swim in the refreshing and clear water. Goldie could even take a shower on the boat!

Thank you so much! We had a wonderful time🙏🏻

Third time out with Ms. Captain Stephanie and surely not the last! We are working on seeing her again come scalloping season. This third time she guided us for the manatee swim. She doesn’t disappoint. So gracious and knowledgeable and quick to see the manatees. We consider ourselves fortunate to find her on our first visit to this area. ( I met her at the small Ozello marina and knew within minutes I found a very genuine, friendly person.) Bonus – she was a captain offering several different tours. We hired her for an airboat and a pontoon boat tour – both covering different areas of the waters, this third manatee trip. And we plan to do some scalloping this summer with her. Don’t hesitate to give her a call, and whichever one and/or all the tours she takes you on, you will be glad you chose Ms. Captain Stephanie Bates!

We had a great Manatee Tour with Captain Stephanie! Saw lots of manatees and enjoyed an informative boat ride to the springs. Captain Stephanie was great at spotting manatees and pointing them out to us. She was also conscientious of the safety and protection of the manatees. Plus, we got some great tips on other things to do while visiting the area. Thanks for a great trip!
