Meet the Ruths

A family business on the Gulf Coast.

Tony, Monica and their three daughters love everything Florida has to offer: beautiful beaches, stunning sunsets, warm nights and outdoor living.

In 2016 they moved permanently from Ohio to the Sunshine State and bought their first vacation rental. In 2017 they started the yacht charter business with Magic Moment, a 75 ft luxury motor yacht based in Clearwater Beach.

A lifelong passion

Hands-on owners. Every detail.

Tony started boating with his father, Jack Ruth, when he was five years old, bought his first boat in 1997, and has spent as much time on the water as he possibly could ever since.

Most charter companies manage boats for owners who are completely absent. Tony and Monica are hands-on, keep the boats in beautiful condition and personally train their captains and crew to be detail-oriented, personable, attentive and fun.
